Union Process, Inc. Batch Attritor for Tungsten Carbide Applications, Wet SC Series

High density material such as tungsten carbide requires a specially designed heavy-duty Batch Attritor. The “SC” Series Attritor meets this special processing requirement. Available with tank capacities ranging from 7 gallons to 245 gallons and horsepowers ranging from 7.5 to 125, these powerful grinding mills feature a tapered tank to reduce load on the bottom arms for easy starting. A special lifter arm raises media and product off the bottom of the tank. Arms are sleeved with tungsten carbide to reduce wear and contamination. The tank has a ball discharge valve and media discharge chute at the bottom for easy removal of media. A water-cooled cover with a floating teflon seal minimizes solvent loss. The tungsten carbide Attritor is also available with an optional torque meter to precisely measure energy input for determining processing time. A worm gear assembly attached to the tank allows the tank to be tilted. In this position, the shaft and arms can be easily removed and/or inspected and the grinding media changed, if necessary. All models come complete with a pumping system which is used to circulate material during grinding and to discharge product.
