The purpose of a colloidal mill (also known as a colloidal mill mixer) is to decrease the size of the droplets in a liquid suspended in another liquid or the particle size of a solid suspension in a liquid. High hydraulic shear is applied to the process liquid during the colloid process. Mill is widely used to improve emulsion and suspension stability. The pharmaceutical, cosmetics, suspensions, and emulsion industries employ colloidal mills for a broad range of purposes, including homogenizing, emulsifying, dispersing, mixing, superfine grinding, ointments, and highly viscous goods.
Feeding the product into the hopper directs it into the space between the stator and rotor. The product experiences intense shearing, cutting, and rubbing as it moves toward the discharge section and between the two metal toothed surfaces of the stator and rotor. The processed product continuously exits the mill through the drainpipe; if necessary, a three-way cock and recirculating pipe system can be used to recirculate it. Small colloid mills and industrial colloid mills are among our selection of inline colloid mills.

Process Operation of Colloidal Mill Mixer
Colloid Mill constructed with a view to process products which is ground & well dispersed. It disintegrates particles faster & uniform swiveling without forming agglomerates and homogenizes products in one pass. Mill develops not only hydraulic pressure in grinding tool section, but turbulence & cavitation’s which combined provide both a gentle grinding & required impact, squeezing, cutting etc. This effects the homogenizing of products & wetting out of powders, all in one shot.
Centrifugal force of the rotor brings the material inside the mill. The rotor & stator combination with its exceptional large surface area provides both a gentle grinding & the required impact effect. A three-way valve at the discharge connection of the Colloid Mill can either provide material to inlet opening for rework or discharge the processed material.
