World´s most efficient Milling System

Important results from the project

The project aimed to develop a final design and to industrially validate our new, modularized lamella grinder. The project included a market study, conceptual design, prototype design, manufacturing of the prototypes and validation of the solution with the customer as well as identification of important parameters for powder quality. The goal of the project was to produce wood powder according to a market screening curve with 100% "Accept" and 0% " Reject ” The aim and objective of the project have been reached. The interest from the market has exceeded our expectations.

Expected long term effects

The results have led us to build several variants of our lamella grinder with which we have been able to verify the milling of a large number of materials, such as pellets, wood chips, groats, bark, logs, cocoa shells, cuttings, veneers and polymers. These fractions have on all occasions succeeded in achieving 100% "Accept". The expected effects of the project are that through the successful demonstrations carried out for industries such as powder burners, gasification, pellet equipment, asphalt plants and cogeneration plants the market introduction of our technology will be rapid.

Approach and implementation

Klingmill´s long-term objective is to establish MILLFUN as the obvious choice for anyone who needs to replace fossil fuel with wood powder or for processes that use biomaterials, e.g. during gasification/pyrolysis. This objective is now much closer. In order to effectively design and build MILLFUN 3.0, the understanding of the important technical parameters has been carefully examined through a number of physical demonstrations. The project was carried out in 6 interdependent work packages that covered various important areas.
