Akron, Ohio – Union Process has introduced the development of a custom designed wet-grind Attritor for the customer’s need to process an alcohol-based silver slurry. The SL5 Attritor provides a particle size reduction solution that is specially designed for highly efficient and precise milling.
Union Process sales manager Chuck Major highlighted the special approach of this Attritor which it is “not only able to reduce particle size but also creates a unique particle morphology.”
The Attritor is powered by a 10 HP, explosion-proof motor. The variable frequency drive is installed in a NEMA 12 enclosure, and the LCD Operator Interface Module (OIM) is programmed to display agitator RPM, motor amperage, and motor HP.
The Attritor is outfitted with a ten-gallon stainless-steel, jacketed grinding tank for temperature control. The stainless-steel agitator shaft is configured with 440C hardened stainless steel L-arms. The system includes a mechanical tachometer, explosion-proof operator station, and a one-piece cover with a special floating Teflon shaft seal to limit the solvent vapor loss.
