How it works
PHM Triple-roller mill is mainly used in paint, printing ink, pigment, plastic, etc., especially mill and disperse products with high viscosity and small granularity. Due to mutual squeezing of three horizontal alloy bowls and friction with different velocity, great milling effect can be realized. T Three precision-ground rollers with differential speed Hydraulic gap adjustment with precise and repeatable setting Effective dispersion of very high viscosity pastes Typical applications include Printing Inks, Cosmetics, Pharmaceuticals, Electronics. Confirm viscosity, initial agglomerate size, target fineness, temperature sensitivity, and required throughput.

Process Engineering
Working Principle
- 1
Material is fed into the gap between three horizontally arranged rollers operating at different surface speeds.
- 2
Compression and differential shear progressively break agglomerates and distribute solids through the carrier.
- 3
Successive adjustable gaps control the final dispersion before the product is removed from the last roller.
Equipment Benefits
Equipment Advantages
- ✓
Strong compression and differential shear handle high-viscosity pastes.
- ✓
Adjustable roller gaps provide direct control of the dispersion process.
- ✓
Wear-resistant rollers extend service life.
- ✓
Roll cooling helps protect temperature-sensitive formulations.

Frequently Asked Questions
What fineness can the Hydraulic Triple Roller Mill reach?
The achievable fineness depends on media size, rotor geometry and the number of passes. POLYC confirms the endpoint on your own material in a trial run before the configuration is fixed.
What grinding media does the Hydraulic Triple Roller Mill use?
The mill runs with high-purity zirconia or ceramic media selected to the target fineness and the separator opening. Chamber and rotor options are chosen to suit the material; product-contact parts are stainless steel / configurable.
Which materials is the Hydraulic Triple Roller Mill used for?
Typical duties cover Printing Inks, Cosmetics, Pharmaceuticals. POLYC reviews your material data before recommending a chamber, media size and pass count.
How do I select the right configuration?
Provide the material type, starting and target particle size, solids loading, batch volume and required throughput. POLYC returns a configuration with media recommendation and an expected pass count.
