A pin mill is a type of impact mill.
Specifically, it operates by rapidly spinning a disc fitted with dozens of pins, which crushes the target material. It is used in various fields such as pharmaceuticals, chemical products, and food, and is capable of processing materials of any hardness.
A notable feature is the ability to adjust the fineness of the output by changing the speed of rotation or the filter screen. Good centrifugal force balance results in less heat generation during milling. Even when the raw material contains a high amount of moisture or oil, the centrifugal force can prevent adherence to the pins. The structure is simple and easy to understand, and pin mills come in a variety of sizes, from small to large.
