Fluid EnergyModel Roto-Jet - Jet Milling Machine

SHARE
The Roto-Jet jet milling machine, crafted by Fluid Energy, represents a high-precision fluid bed jet mill designed for ultra-fine and fine powder grinding with specific particle size distribution capabilities. Its system combines opposed grinding nozzles and a dynamic classifier that operates at variable speeds, enabling refined control over particle reduction processes. It handles powders with micron averages ranging from 0.5 to 45 microns. The design emphasizes efficiency with low abrasion, automated system controls, and an innovative tapered grinding chamber that maximizes particle collisions while maintaining product purity. The classifier ensures accurate classification and sizing, recycling oversized particles for continued processing. Constructed using high-quality American-made components, the Roto-Jet offers durability, ease of maintenance, and reliable operation for continuous use. This system also emphasizes versatility through rental options and custom processing services for specialized applications.

Expertly Engineered Particle Milling and Classification

Air or inert gas at elevated pressure is injected through specially designed nozzles directly into the grinding chamber of the Roto-Jet, creating a sonic or supersonic grinding stream. Raw feed is automatically introduced to the Roto-Jet chamber mill by an interlocked feed control system.

The agitation provided by the grinding chamber and nozzle design cause particles to become entrained in the air or inert gas stream. Particle size reduction is accomplished by high velocity collisions between particles. Small particles are then swept towards the classifier which rotates at high speed above the grinding. The speed of the classifier is preset for the proper sized product and is electronically controlled. Material which is fluidized fine enough to overcome the inertial force generated by the classifier escapes the Roto-Jet mill and is collected as product. Oversized particles are recycled by the classifier back into the grinding chamber for further reduction.

Ultimate Control in Fine Grinding with Advanced Classification

The ROTO-JET jet mill produces a finely ground product and affords you the most advanced and precise control of the particle size distribution. Efficient compressed air usage and total system automation ensure that the highest quality product is manufactured. We bring a wealth of technical and engineering expertise to our manufacturing process and closely involve the customer in every project. The result is a custom engineered and cost-effective grinding circuit operating with the most advanced technology in the size reduction industry.

Enhanced Grinding

The Roto-Jet grinding chamber is a high-efficiency tapered design which maximizes particle collisions and maintains product purity. The grinding chamber features an adjustable bed and variable nozzle configurations to alter bed levels, grinding patterns and gas flow. These unique features provide consistent and efficient grinding.

Adjustable Classifier

The classifier rotor is engineered to provide precise classification of your product. Advanced designs ensure that only specifically sized product is discharged while oversize particles are recycled for additional grinding. The classifier is adjustable within a wide range of speeds to produce the desired particle size.

No Mechanical Heat

As with our other fluid energy jet mills, the Roto-Jet milling machine may be used to grind heat-sensitive products with critical heat limitations. The cooling effect created by the expanding gases offsets the slight heat generated during the grinding and classifying processes.

Automated System Controls

The Roto-Jet System includes the most up-to-date process control technology available. Interlocked sensors and controls work to maintain optimum milling conditions within the system. This advanced instrumentation and control package ensure that the product remains within your exact specifications.

Reliable Construction

The Roto-Jet milling machine is constructed entirely in the USA of only the highest quality components. The low-maintenance design has no moving parts and can be opened quickly and easily for inspection or cleaning. All parts are made in the USA which guarantees rapid delivery of spare items. Comprehensive engineering and durable construction enable our system to operate continuously 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
