Ultraplex UPZ Fine Impact Mill

This impact mill’s versatility comes from the easily interchangeable milling elements, making the machine adaptable to suit a wide variety of feed materials.

Ultraplex UPZ Mills can be equipped as pin mills without a sieve, with one rotating pin disc and one stationary one. They can also be equipped as a beater mill with a beater disc, swing, or plate beater unit, for operation with grinding tracks or sieves. The overall result is a host of practice-oriented and perfectly coordinated equipment combinations.

The UPZ impact mill is used in many branches of industry (particularly chemicals, food, animal feed, and pharmaceuticals) for a wide variety of applications. Its versatility can be summarised as follows:

• Beater disc, pin discs, swing beaters and plate beaters, sieves and grinding tracks
• End-product fineness in the range 50 µm to approx. 5 mm, depending on the grinding equipment installed
• Generously dimensioned mill door for easy cleaning and exchange of grinding elements
