Powder and particle process technology business segment

For over 120 years now, HOSOKAWA ALPINE has been designing and building process technological machines and systems for processing powders, granules and bulk materials as well as for manifold recycling jobs. The company has a comprehensive product portfolio – from mills and shredders to classifiers. Besides machines for size reduction, the powder and particle process technology business segment also offers solutions for compacting technology as well as laboratory equipment for particle analysis.

The systems are employed in a host of different industrial branches. Every customer has individual requirements. This is why HOSOKAWA ALPINE supports its customers as a system partner from the design and development stage right up to installation of the turnkey system. To ensure optimum customer support, the powder and particle process technology business segment is split up into seven divisions: chemicals, minerals & metals, pharma & lab, food, recycling, compacting technology and Blueserv. At the same time, the individual divisions benefit from the synergetic R&D effects.
