At Epic Powder, we provide advanced grinding solutions that turn material challenges into performance advantages. A prime example is tempered glass grinding—a process demanding exceptional precision to handle its abrasiveness and brittleness without contamination. For a manufacturer aiming to upcycle post-consumer tempered glass into high-value powder for specialty coatings, this presented a significant hurdle. They needed a solution that guaranteed high-purity tempered glass grinding, avoided thermal damage, and delivered a consistently ultrafine, narrow particle distribution—all within an efficient, scalable production process.
We recommended our MQP10 Flat Disc Jet Mill, a system engineered for abrasive and brittle materials. The MQP10 utilizes compressed air to accelerate particles into a high-speed vortex within the grinding chamber, where inter-particle collisions achieve ultra-fine pulverization without introducing wear contaminants. An integrated dynamic classifier ensures precise particle size control by instantly separating and recirculating oversized particles.
The MQP10 system’s robust design, featuring a wear-resistant lining, proved exceptionally durable against the abrasive nature of glass. The client successfully integrated the powder into their production line, reporting improved product performance, reduced waste, and a new revenue stream from upcycled materials.
Epic Powder’s MQP10 Jet Mill delivers more than just size reduction—it enables material innovation. For your toughest grinding challenges, from glass to ceramics to advanced chemicals, trust our technology to refine your potential.
