Colloid Mill
BITUMEN EMULSION COLLOID MILL
PMB COLLOID MILL
FPS provides a range of Colloid Mill for the application of processing Bitumen related products namely Bitumen Emulsion, CRMB, PMB. FPS colloid mills are capable for both continuous and batch processes comprising multiple sets of rotor-stator arrangement basis on the process. The mill is capable to produce super fine emulsions achieving the finest droplet size.

Working Principle of Colloid Mill:
FPS Mill works on the principle of shear force produced in between the rotor and stator. The high-speed rotation of the rotor sucks the material into the eye of the rotor wherein high amount of centrifugal force throws the material outwards towards the stator wall. The material is sheared off as the high rotational kinetic energy is converted to heat energy because of disruption to the flow of the material in between the rotor and stator further leading to the high amount of shear energy in a small confined space, also known as the tolerance in between the rotor and stator.
Working of Colloid Mill:
High Speed Rotation of rotor blades exerts a powerful suction, drawing in liquids and solids directly into the eye of the rotor.
Material is centrifugally forced to the tolerance between the rotor and inner walls of the stator where milling action takes place.
The milling is then followed by vigorous hydraulic shearing as the material is forced through the perforations in the stator.
A continuous mixing pattern is maintained due to continuous radial expulsion and suction into the eye forming a stable mixing pattern.
Types of Colloid Mills:
Inline homogenizer is mounted inline to the outlet of the mixing vessel either in a re-circulation loop or single-pass configuration.
Multi Stage Colloid Mill –Multi Stage Mill consists of a specific arrangement of four sets of stator and rotor concentrically mounted with minimum tolerance; for high performance, uniform fineness and better efficiency.
Two Stage Colloid Mill: – Two Stage Mill consists of a specific arrangement of two sets of Stator and Rotor concentrically mounted with minimum tolerance; for high performance, uniform fineness and better efficiency.
