Hosokawa MIKRO-UMP Universal Milling System Model UMP-8 for Advanced Powder Processing

The Hosokawa MIKRO-UMP Universal Milling System Model UMP-8 is a precision-engineered powder milling system designed for advanced material size reduction and processing in biotechnology, pharmaceutical, and chemical research. Equipped with a touchscreen control panel for easy operation and rotor type selection, the system supports three rotor configurations:

The system is powered by a robust SEW Eurodrive motor and a Baldor Reliance Speed Motor (3 HP, 230/460 V, 60 Hz, 2490 RPM), ensuring stable performance and efficient power transmission critical for reproducible milling processes. The unit is mounted on a mobile frame with casters, facilitating ease of movement in dynamic laboratory environments essential for bioprocessing and molecular diagnostics workflows.

Material handling and unloading are streamlined with an integrated Van Beek TR25 screw conveyor (Serial 810907.A, 2021, 25 kg), enhancing productivity during continuous milling operations. Electrical specifications include dual voltage support (230/460 V), 60 Hz frequency, and power consumption of 5/2.5 Amps, making it compatible with various laboratory power infrastructures.

This milling system’s flexibility and precision make it widely adopted in synthetic biology research and biopharmaceutical production pipelines where fine particle size control is critical. It is also essential for molecular cloning workflows and formulation development requiring consistent powder processing. The modular rotor setup supports diverse application areas such as live-cell imaging sample preparation, gene editing workflows, and biomanufacturing scale-up processes.
