The small Spiral Jet Mills
Spiral jet mills are already in use in numerous application laboratories for the dry grinding of product samples.
For the first time, in the form of the ConJet® model high-density bed jet mill, a spiral jet mill has been put on the market that makes it possible to exactly set desired finenesses without changing the product load. The infinitely adjustable classifier wheel integrated into the machine housing provides an upper particle size limitation of the final product that can be exactly defined and reproduced at any time.
The compact machine housing and grinding principle of this laboratory machine allow processing without notable product loss.
Until now the grinding fineness of spiral jet mills was set by adjusting the product load. This setting can now be adjusted by simply regulating the rotational speed of the classifier wheel.
The easy to open machine housing allows fast, complete cleaning of the machine when product or batches are changed. It is the utmost in user friendliness!
The plant is designed to be modular, so that other modules can be added, such as our CGS Fluidized Bed Jet Mill and High-efficiency Classifier Model CFS/HD-S to make a completely versatile laboratory platform.

Application literature
A new jet mill combines a spiral design with a patented dynamic air classifier wheel to achieve optimum levels of fineness and throughput.
The high-density bed jet mill represents an advanced development of the spiral jet mill. Its core feature is the integration of a dynamic air classifier at the centre of the grinding chamber. This enables optimal independent setting of the grinding fineness and efficiency. In addition, the circular motion of the material ground in the grinding chamber and the air classifier restricting product discharge from the grinding zone result in a very intensive loading of the gas jets with the material to be ground. This leads to a considerable improvement in the mill efficiency, especially for the grinding of lightweight materials. The operating characteristics of high-density bed jet mills and fluidized bed jet mills are compared and finally, on the basis of this comparison, favourable applications for the new high-density bed jet mill are derived.
