Ointment Mill

The Dermamill 100 produces extremely smooth and fine ointments that will increase take-up of the active ingredient on the skin, and maximize the benefit to the patient. Ointment is collected with our carefully designed scraper mechanism which locks onto the rollers and ensures maximum efficiency when collecting the product. Product fineness can be reduced to 20µm (20 microns), and lower sizes are possible with more passes through the mill. Particles are not crushed but are sheared by the differential speeds of the rollers. The ointment passes through both gaps and receives shearing forces, resulting in particle size reduction, particle dispersal, and homogenization. Crystalline particles, and particle nests are exposed to the shearing forces of the rollers and reduced and dispersed throughout the carrier. The operator can control the 2 gap sizes manually. When milling very thick/viscous substances, or substances with large particles, or high particle/carrier ratio, the operator can increase the rear gap to give a 'pre-mill" (which will give an initial particle dispersal and homogenization), and then tighten the front gap to give extra product fineness.
