MIKRO® UMP UNIVERSAL MILLING SYSTEM

The Mikro® UMP Universal Milling System is a compact, high speed impact mill capable of coarse granulation or fine size reduction with interchangeable rotor configurations. The UMP is the next step in the evolution of the Mikro Pulverizer® Hammer & Screen Mill by providing the same grind as the classic hammer mill while adding the flexibility of a pin disc, knife rotor or attrition plates.

• Suitable for pharmaceutical, food, plastics & chemical applications
• Energy efficient & economical to operate
• Designed for milling soft to medium-hard materials
• Fabricated stainless steel construction
• Variable speed rotor drive
• Cantilevered design for easy cleaning & rotor changes
• Cryogenic operation available
• Available with pin rotor, hammer & screen, knives or attrition plate configurations
• Isolator installations available for high containment applications

DESCRIPTION:

The Mikro® UMP Universal Milling System utilizes the same design and operating principles perfected in the original Mikro Pulverizer® Hammer & Screen Mill. The Mikro® UMP was developed to meet the increased market demand for high performance machines for multiple applications. An interchangeable grinding mechanism for flexible particle size distribution is a key feature to this machine’s design. Multiple feed and collection options further enhance the flexibility of the Mikro® UMP Universal Milling System across food, pharmaceutical and chemical applications.

The fabricated grinding chamber is constructed in 316 stainless steel with a high quality 0.6 micron Ra finish. Higher quality finishes are available for specialty applications. The access door is hinged to the grinding chamber and is secured with a tri-clamp connection for easy and quick inspection and cleaning. The bearing housing is a cantilevered design and includes maintenance free, sealed for life bearings. There are double lip seals and a gas purge between the drive and process areas to eliminate material contamination and premature wear to drive components.
