TORUSMILL^® basket mills

Fine grinding with basket mills

Basket mills are highly efficient batch milling systems. An integral impeller pumping wheel agitates the beads and circulates the millbase through the basket. The milling basket is double‒walled for cooling and has a screen that retains the milling beads but allows the millbase to pass through. An efficient circulation of the millbase through the basket ensures excellent dispersion results in a short period of time.

The fine grinding process
The double‒walled milling basket filled with beads is lowered into the millbase. Intense circulation of the product is generated with the dispersion disc and integrated pump wheel. For assessment of the milling process ‒ during dispersion ‒ a product sample can be taken at any time.

When the milling process is complete, the grinding basket is raised. Product residue in the milling basket is centrifuged out by briefly running the milling and the dissolver discs.

Cleaning the milling system is carried out with a suitable cleaning fluid in a separate container.

Highly efficient and robust basket mill technology for excellent fine grinding results

• excellent grinding results in a short time
• unique product circulation due to dissolver disc and pump wheel
• repeatable grinding results
• uniform average residence time
• narrow particle size distribution
• no dead areas due to effective mill base circulation
• no escape of milling beads during the fine milling process
• fine milling in a closed system
• low energy requirement
• Simple cleaning and quick change of millbase
• Especially user‒friendly milling system: very simple and safe handling
