Union Process, Inc. Continous Attritor, Dry HSA Series

The HSA High Speed Attritor is generally used in a continuous mode. The material is charged into the mill at the top and is discharged out the bottom side, making use of centrifugal force. The HSA is used when smaller particle size (generally 40 mesh) materials are fed into the machine and micron size end product is desired. Also, it is often used for fibrous and polymer types of materials. HSA Attritors feature a patented design concept that includes a unique grinding tank internal configuration which allows higher shaft speeds, finer grinding, and continuous operation with side discharge. A series of specially shaped agitating arms and diverter discs are mounted along the longitudinal axis of the agitator shaft. This engineering design makes it possible to use smaller grinding media, operate at higher shaft RPM, and increase residence time of the material to be processed to insure a finer grind.
