PULVIS agitated media mill
The PULVIS is the grinding system for ultra-fine materials. The vertical, dry agitator bead mill features an integrated dynamic classifier. Its strength is the ultrafine and low contamination grinding of hard materials.
Key points at a glance
- Fineness values down to d97 < 1μm
- Ultrafine grinding in the dry process
- Steep particle size distributions
- Sharp top cut

The milling part is located at the bottom of the machine. Feed material is ground by agitated media that combine impact grinding and attrition.
The gasflow injected from the bottom side transports and cools the particles on their way through the grinding media.
Ground particles are conveyed by air, passing through the grinding chamber to the classifier.
The classifier separates the required fine product from coarse particles. The coarse particles return to the grinding zone for further grinding.

- Compact, space-saving design
- From Laboratory to production scale: with possibility to scale-up over complete range
- Finer particle sizes possible compared to jet milling
- Ultra fine particles: The compact unit reliably produces very fine products with particle sizes in the sub-micron range.
- Easy assembly, disassembly and cleaning are achieved with this design. Ideal machine for frequent material changes.
- Wear protection: Replaceable wear parts on the mill base and grinding cylinder make the wear protection replaceable - ideal for abrasive products.
Do you need to grind hard, temperature-insensitive products extremely finely? Then the PULVIS is the right choice for you.

PULVIS PRO with multi-wheel classifier heads - simplify your processes!
For even greater finenesses
The PULVIS PRO (sizes 800 and 1000) can be enhanced to achieve maximum fineness and high throughput rates even with highly abrasive products such as aluminum oxide. The key here lies in enlarging the classifier wheel surface with multi-wheel classifier heads from our ATP PRO classifier wheel. The combination with ceramic wear protection results in the following advantages for your production and your product:
- No reduction in air volume flows: more throughput with finer product
- Less wear reduces downtimes and costs
- Finer end product
