Method of Operation
Unprocessed material is loaded into the product inlet of the Uni-Mill by hand, gravity feed or vacuum transfer. The material then passes into the milling chamber where a rotating impeller forces the unprocessed material through a stationery cone-shaped screen by a vortex action. The material is instantly reduced in size as it passes through the holes in the screen.
By changing a combination of screen, impeller shape and speed, the finished milled particle size can be carefully controlled. Most important for hygienic requirements, such as those in pharmaceutical and food production, there is no metal-to-metal contact between the impeller and screen.
The Uni-Mill conical screen mill draws upon Hanningfield’s wealth of experience in size reduction for the process industries.
Conical screen or ‘cone-milling’ is ideal for achieving a fine, uniform particle size. By combining high throughput and high efficiency, the low energy Uni-Mill is perfect for the pharmaceutical, food, chemical and consumer goods industries.
The Uni-Mill is designed and manufactured by Hanningfield Process Systems at our UK Headquarters.
When the highly successful Maldon Crystal Salt Company in Essex needed to fulfil an order from a Norwegian snack food company, they approached Hanningfield Process Systems Ltd.

Product Profile
Conical screen or ‘cone-milling’ is widely recognised as one of the most efficient and beneficial methods for size reduction in powder processing. Process times, cleaning, noise and dust levels are all significantly reduced when using the conical screen milling system. Cone-milling is particularly helpful in ensuring friable products are not damaged by excessive heat through careful selection of screen type, impeller and speed. The cone-mill system also has the major benefit of no metal to metal contact, thus reducing wear and heat build up.
The compact and highly flexible design of the cone-mill allows simple integration into a wide variety of process systems including granulators, blenders, IBC’s and vacuum transfer.
Hanningfield can draw upon many years of experience in designing, manufacturing and maintaining cone-mill equipment. A carefully selected group of partner suppliers enable us to provide an excellent range of conical screen milling machines and performance matched tooling equipment such as screens and impellers.
