Gane” HOSOKAWA I\\iCRON POWDER SYSTEMS MIKRO ACM CIP AIR CLASSIFIER MILL with innovative CIP (clean in place) capabilities Developed from the world’s leading air classifier mill, the new Mikro ACM CIP air classifier mill combines the traditional features of ultrafine grinding and classifying with innovative CIP (lean in place) capabilites. Interna view of Moo ACM CIP ‘The Mikro ACM CIP air classifier mill offers all the benefits of reduced owntime due to easy manual dismantling and cleaning plus increased operator/environmental safety. As cleaning takes place within the mill, Process Technologies For Tomorrow ‘operator contact with potentially toxic or hazardous chemicals are minimised as is product release to atmosphere. Features Suitable for batch production Full validation procedure Shock resistant to 11 bar BH Low Noise I Fine grinding to Dr - 10 microns Total internal access ‘The Mikro ACM CIP sir classifier mill is a high speed impact pulverizer with tegral dynamic classifier and is available in a range of sizes. ‘As a standard design philosophy, the new ‘Mikro ACM CIP incorporates explosion protection, low noise, outstanding accessibility and a high level of GMP. ‘The Mikro ACM is suitable for a wide range of high performance milling operations where an ultrafine material with steep particle size distribution is required, Clean in Place ‘The CIP capability allows the mill wo be filled with water, special cleaning fluid or even some organic solvents, Agitation of these fluids can be included if required, CIP is traditionally problematic in milling equipment, as rotating pars inside the mill require the bearing assemblies to be sealed to prevent ingress of cleaning fluids and subsequent bearing damage. A special sealing system developed by Hosokawa, which is inoperative during rnormal mill operation, is activated during the CIP operation. Various methods of agitating the fluid inside the mill can also be included if required, Total internal access is obtained by opening the hinged ‘outer chamber and lifting out the inner stinging chamber.

Mikro ACM milling system van be designed to process materials having a dust explosion hazard using venting relief. inert gas operation or fully contained explosion shock pressure resistant 11 bar designs. ‘The standard ACM series has been augmented by special, easy clean designs such as the Mikro ACM EC (easy clean) and Mikro ACM. SB (split body) versions developed for customers having a requirement for ultra fast cleandowns because of multiple product changes, ‘These EC and SB designs are available in PSR 11 design as standard A Mikro CC Classifier Pharmaceutical Design Complete validated systems can be provided using highly polished stainless steel Mikro ACM mls with intemal finishes down to 0.2 Ra. Hosokawa Standard Accessories As part of a Mikro ACM system there is a range of accessories which can be used including rotary valves, cyclone callectors, cyclone classifier, dust collectors and the new high efficiency Mikrocut air classifier. Cyclone Collector High efficiency cyclone designed to obtain maximum product recovery. Ease of access and cleanability are main design features, ACM SB > BACH 10 PSR IE iikro CC Classifier ‘Operating in ine with ACM mill system to classify atthe coarse or fine ends to produce quality powder with steep Particle size distribution, Filter To work in conjunction with the Mikro ACM CIP, Hosokawa have designed and supplied a fully reverse jet filter with sintered metal elements ‘The poliey of research and development Continues and as part of the Hosokawa Micron Group we ean offer our clients ‘unrivalled knowledge and expertise in cesigning and engineering powder processing systems, > nosoxawa micron Powe systems About Our Company: For more than 80 years, Hosokawa Micron Powder Systems has been a single source provider of integrated powder processing systems and compo- nent machinery.
