ALPINE FINE CUTTING MILL TYPE AFS

Product catalog summary

Applications: The AFS Fine Cutting Mill is suitable for processing both virgin materials and granulated products. It produces end products with a smooth, cubic shape and excellent flow properties, ideal for further processing.

Principle of Operation: The mill processes feed material sized between 4 and 8 mm. Material is fed into the grinding zone where size reduction occurs between an adjustable stator disc and a rotating grinding disc. The grinding process is staged through a tapered gap, and finely ground products exit through a defined gap. For precise top-size limitation, the mill can operate with a screening machine to recycle oversize particles. The technology supports ambient temperature grinding for most plastics and cryogenic mode for heat-sensitive materials.

Features:

One-piece milling discs with optimized toothing geometries for wear and maintenance.
High throughput with low energy consumption.
External precision adjustment for milling gap.
Quick exchange of milling elements.
Easy access for cleaning and maintenance.
Reliable high-speed precision bearings.
Compact, stable design in cast iron or welded form.
Automated operation with controlled feed metering.
Temperature and mill load monitoring for consistent product quality.

Components: The system includes a supply bin, feed metering unit, metal separator, fine cutting mill, cyclone, screening machine, fan, automatic filter, rotary valve, and control cabinet.
