A leading manufacturer needed to scale their output while maintaining ultra-fine specifications for grinding iron oxide, they turned to Epic Powder. The goal was ambitious: produce iron oxide powder with a fineness of D97 2.7μm at a steady rate of 1000kg/h. After a full process analysis, Epic Powder deployed a customized fluidized bed jet mill system. The results not only met the target but established a new benchmark for the client’s operational consistency.
Why the Jet Mill Was the Right Choice
Iron oxide is abrasive and highly sensitive to contamination. Traditional mechanical mills often introduce metal wear particles, compromising color purity and chemical properties. Epic Powder’s MQW jet mill operates on a principle of particle-to-particle collision, completely eliminating mechanical grinding media.
This design ensures: Ideal for high-purity pigments and magnetic materials; Steep curve with minimal oversized or ultrafine particles; Stable operation even at 1000kg/h without clogging or performance decay.
Built for Industrial-Scale Demands
The system installed for this client features a proprietary classifier rotor, enabling precise cut points and immediate extraction of target-sized particles. This prevents over-grinding—a common issue that wastes energy and degrades product quality.
Additionally, the closed-loop inert gas system protects moisture-sensitive iron oxide from ambient humidity, ensuring stable flowability and storage characteristics.
