Mills and classifiers are applied for controlled grinding and particle size classification of powders and bulk solids, particularly where defined particle size distributions are required for further processing or final product performance. Within the Hosokawa Micron Group, these technologies form part of a broader portfolio of process equipment.
While Hosokawa Micron B.V. focuses on mixing, drying and agglomeration equipment, milling and classification equipment is provided by Hosokawa Alpine (Germany), enabling precise particle size control and consistent product quality within integrated powder processing systems.
Milling technologies such as Hosokawa Alpine mills are used for fine grinding of powders to defined particle sizes. Depending on the material characteristics and required fineness, different grinding principles are applied, including impact, compression and shear. These systems enable controlled particle size reduction for a wide range of materials, from brittle to moderately elastic products.

Air classification technologies are used for precise separation of particles based on size, shape or density. Hosokawa Alpine classifiers enable accurate control of particle size distribution, either as a standalone process or integrated with milling systems. This allows fine tuning of product specifications and consistent product quality.
