Process Systems for Metals Salts
Enhance the performance and usability of your metal salts with Hosokawa Micron’s advanced agglomeration technology. From improving flow properties to enabling accurate dosing and easy formulation, our solutions are tailored to meet the unique demands of food-grade and industrial metal salt applications.
Whether you're producing metal salts for food, chemical or pharmaceutical use, particle structure matters. Fine powders offer good dispersion but poor flow; coarse particles flow well but don’t mix easily. Our Flexomix system gives you the best of both worlds—combining fine dispersion with excellent handling characteristics.
Agglomeration with the Flexomix system
Hosokawa’s Flexomix agglomeration system is a high-capacity, continuous mixer-agglomerator that produces free-flowing granules with a raspberry-like, open-pore structure. The result: instant agglomerates with excellent solubility, flowability and bulk density, making them ideal for downstream formulation or packaging.
By transforming fine metal salt powders into well-defined agglomerates, the Flexomix system improves dosing accuracy, reduces dust, and enhances storage and transport properties—key for high-performance ingredients used in food, chemicals and beyond.
Test before you invest
Run trials with your own materials on lab and production-scale equipment at our 2,000 m² Test Centre in the Netherlands. Our experienced process specialists work with you to determine the right process, equipment or system configuration for your application. Each trial is supported by a detailed technical report, helping you select the right solution with confidence.
