Bead Mills: DMQX®
The Ultimate In Bead Milling Versatility, Combining The Advantages Of Bead Milling And Circulation Grinding
Circulation Grinding is a cost-effective solution for grinding large quantities of material as it allows for a lower cost capital investment in equipment and grinding media than with many other grinding equipment options.
Additional benefits of circulation grinding include a narrower particle size distribution, the ability to continuously monitor the slurry, add ingredients to the premix tank at any time during the grinding cycle and control temperature more precisely since the slurry spends only 15-25 seconds in the grinding chamber.
DMQX® Horizontal Bead Milling Systems are available in either Lab or Production Models.
