Product name: Zircosil
Attributes/comments: Looking at the need of medium density, long-lasting, cost-effective ceramic milling beads, Jyoti started an extensive research to develop suitable ceramic milling beads to meet the demands of a specific segment, who have bead mills but not suitable to carry the load of Zirconox high density (6.2 gm/cc) beads. The company recently developed Zircosil�a sapphire hard, tough, medium density, 4.6 gm/cc (Zirconium Silicate) micro milling beads, which are non-abrasive, high wear resistant, glossy, satin-smooth. Zircosil beads will prove to be an ideal micro milling media, for the bead mills designed and constructed for use of low/medium density 2.6/3.8 gm/cc glass/Zirconium Silicate beads.

New Product: DMQ-10
Attributes/comments: The DMQ-10 combines the best features of a traditional horizontal small media mill with the added benefits of circulation grinding. The result is a versatile mill capable of providing a cost-effective, size reduction solution for grinding large quantities of material. Although the DMQ Series is able to operate in either circulation or continuous mode, using the mill for circulation grinding offers some unique benefits including a narrower particle size distribution, the ability to continuously monitor the slurry, and the ability to sample or add ingredients to the premix tank at any time. Also, temperature can be controlled more precisely since the slurry spends only a short period of time in the grinding chamber. The circulation grinding process involves the use of a large process and holding tank in addition to the DMQ Mill. The mill features a large, heavy-duty media separator located at the end of the mill for easy servicing. Indexed discs provide uniform media distribution. Adjustable product discharge openings maximize throughput and accommodate grinding media from 2mm to as small as .3mm. Finally,a rail system makes maintenance and/or tank removal easy.
