Under Driven Cone Mill

The Under Driven Cone Mill is designed for controlled particle size reduction, granule sizing, and de-agglomeration of pharmaceutical powders and granules. It operates using a rotating impeller positioned within a conical screen, with the drive mechanism located beneath the milling chamber. The impeller moves material against the screen, where compression and shear forces reduce oversized particles before discharge.

Intence Engineering offers Under Driven Cone Mills as part of its pharmaceutical milling equipment range. The under-driven configuration supports compact equipment arrangements and is suitable for integration into pharmaceutical powder processing workflows. Different impeller profiles, sieve configurations, and operating conditions can be selected according to material characteristics and manufacturing requirements.

Applications of Under Driven Cone Mill

1. Pharmaceutical Granule Sizing: Processing dried granules to achieve suitable particle size characteristics for tablet compression and capsule filling operations.
2. Wet Granule Milling: Reducing oversized wet agglomerates after granulation to prepare material for subsequent drying and downstream processing.
3. Powder De-Agglomeration: Breaking down lumps and agglomerated powders to support material handling, blending, and consistent powder preparation.
4. Inline Pharmaceutical Processing: Supporting particle sizing applications within integrated manufacturing workflows, depending on the selected equipment configuration.

Key Features

• Under Driven Milling Mechanism: The impeller drive is positioned beneath the milling chamber, distinguishing the equipment from conventional over-driven conical mills.
• Conical Screen Design: Uses a perforated conical screen to support controlled particle sizing and material discharge.
• Compact Equipment Arrangement: The under-driven design can provide a reduced equipment head height and support space-efficient installations.
• Efficient Particle Size Reduction: Uses mechanical compression and shearing forces to break down suitable powders and granules.
• Variable Speed Operation: Intence’s documented milling range includes Variable Frequency Drive options for adjusting processing speed.
• Interchangeable Milling Tools: Different impeller profiles and sieve arrangements can be selected according to the required milling application.
• Process Integration: The under-driven arrangement can support integration with suitable upstream and downstream manufacturing equipment.
