Micronization or jet milling is the transformation of powders and granules into microscopic particles which are used in inhalation products, pharmaceuticals suspensions, food products, etc.
The Western States RINA-JET MILL functions by promoting high-velocity collisions in a pressurized fluid environment to cause particle breakage. The RINA-JET MILL produces finely milled particles free of contamination due to the absence of any mechanical grinding with superior control of the resulting particle size distribution.
