Continuous wet and dry milling plants face similar comminution challenges in achieving high throughput, consistent product specification and efficiency of operation. Wet milling produces finer sizes than dry grinding, but dry grinding can eliminate the drying steps needed by wet milling. Malvern Process Systems (MALPS) real-time particle sizing helps:

Improve batch to batch milling consistency
Reduce milling start-up and shutdown times
Accelerate mill set-up for new product specifications
