Air Classifying ITC
The ITC air classifier is designed for fine classifications in the range of 2-150 Air Classifying is a sophisticated process used to separate particles based on size, shape, and density through the use of air flow. This technique is used in many industries. These include pharmaceuticals, food processing, and mineral processing. It helps achieve a precise particle size distribution.
Application:
Widely used in chemical industry, minerals (especially suitable for non-mineral materials classifying, such as calcium carbonate, kaolin, quartz, talc, mica), metallurgy, abrasives, ceramics, refractory materials, medicines, pesticides, food, health products, new materials, etc. industry.
Multi-rotor Air Classifier
The Multi-rotor Air Classifier is an advanced tool. It accurately classifies fine powders using several rotating wheels. This technology improves how well particles are separated. It works accurately, so it’s perfect for many industrial uses. This system has multiple rotors, usually between 2 and 6. This design greatly boosts the classifying surface area compared to single-wheel classifiers.
The Multi-rotor Air Classifier uses aerodynamic separation. It has several rotating wheels that classify particles by size and density.
Working Principle:
Material Feeding: Raw material enters the classifier through a feed inlet. It is usually pre-treated to ensure the best processing results.
Airflow Generation: A fan generates high-speed airflow that moves the particles into the classification zone. This airflow creates a drag force that influences particle movement.
Centrifugal Force: When particles enter the classification area, high-speed rotating wheels create centrifugal forces. Lighter and finer particles are carried upward by the airflow, while heavier particles are pushed outward and downward.
Separation Process: The classifier has a secondary air inlet. This feature improves the separation process. It gives larger particles more time in the classification zone. As a result, they can be sorted more effectively.
Discharge: Fine particles are collected and exit through a cyclone separator or dust collector. Coarser particles are discharged separately.
This multi-rotor system works well for many uses. It is efficient and adaptable. Industries like pharmaceuticals, food processing, and mineral processing benefit from it.
Air Classifier HTS-Lab
The Air Classifier Lab is a modern facility. It specializes in advanced particle size classification. This lab can achieve a particle size of D97: 2μm. It’s perfect for applications that need precise and fine material separation. The equipment can produce between 0.5 kg and 1 kg per hour. This makes it great for research and small-scale production. The Air Classifier Lab uses high-quality materials such as 304 stainless steel, alumina, and zirconia ceramic lining. This design ensures it’s durable and reliable for various processing settings. It also provides protective gas options like nitrogen and argon. These gases help improve the quality and purity of classified materials.
Working Principle
The material enters the jet mill (impact mill) through the automatic feeding system and grinds the material to a suitable particle size. The high-speed rotating classifying wheel realizes the separation of different particle sizes. The qualified products enter the cyclone collector for collection, and the coarse particles return to the grinding area. If it is necessary to classify the materials separately, combine the air classifier unit, and adjust the impeller speed through the frequency converter to achieve product classification with different particle sizes.
