Recent Project: Highly Specialised, Feature-Packed Conical Mill & Centrifugal Sifter

At Hanningfield, we’ve been providing solutions for powder processing problems for more than 35 years. Customers who require a bespoke or specialised design frequently contact us to help find solutions to their unique needs. Since new equipment is often retrofitted to and already-existing process line, it must be compatible with the factory layout, available space, and equipment. Because of this, not every process can be satisfied by an off-the shelf solution. 

We recently designed and manufactured these feature-packed machines required for powder processing.  Our Uni-Mill M20-UG cone mill and KS20 centrifugal sifter were customised to meet the specific requirements of our pharmaceutical customer.  This is a great example of how we are able to work with customers to deliver a bespoke solution.

These highly specialised systems featured ATEX Zone 0/20 internal and ATEX Zone 1/22 external. High containment ChargePoint split valves were included on the inlet and outlet to maintain high integrity connections to the discharge container. Temperature monitoring was possible with the inclusion of PT100 temperature probes. Additionally, Wet in Place spray balls were included to aid cleaning and eliminate airborne dust. The mill and sifter were both situated on mobile frames with manual raise/lower function for ease of man height adjustment. Finally, inlet and outlet adaptors were included for in-line vacuum transfer of powder.
