Production Description:
LENO colloid mill is a type of milling machine used in various industries to reduce the particle size of a solid or liquid.
suspension. It is commonly used in the food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and chemical industries for the production of emulsions,suspensions, and dispersions.
The working process of a colloid mill involves the following steps:
1. Feed Material: The material to be processed is fed into the mill's hopper or inlet. This can be a solid or liquid substance or a mixture of both.
2. Rotor-Stator Assembly: Inside the colloid mill, there is a rotor and a stator. The rotor is a rotating component that contains a series of concentric teeth or grooves, while the stator is a stationary component that surrounds the rotor. The rotor and stator are designed to have a very small gap between them, typically in the range of 0.05 to 1.5 mm.
3. Shearing and Grinding: As the material passes through the small gap between the rotor and stator, it undergoes intense
shearing, grinding, and turbulence. The high-speed rotation of the rotor generates a strong hydraulic shear force, causing the
particles or droplets to be repeatedly broken down into smaller sizes. This process is known as homogenization or
micronization.
4. Circulation and Recirculation: The processed material continuously circulates within the colloid mill. It flows from the
center of the rotor-stator assembly to the periphery, and then back to the center, creating a recirculation loop. This
circulation helps to ensure that all particles or droplets are subjected to the grinding action, resulting in a uniform and
consistent product.
5. Discharge: Once the desired particle size or consistency is achieved, the processed material is discharged from the colloid
mill. It can be collected in a container or directed to further processing equipment.
It's important to note that colloid mills can have variations in design and configuration depending on the specific application
and industry requirements. Some mills may have additional features such as adjustable gap settings, temperature control, or multiple stages of grinding for finer particle size reduction.
