Effiziente Produktionssysteme für Agrochemicals.
Bühler is the expert for innovative wet-milling
technology in the chemical industry. Based on
outstanding equipment technology and detailed
knowledge of processes and applications, Bühler
designs and builds customized production sys-
tems for crop protection suspensions and spe-
cialty fertilizers. Compact, flexible modules easily
combine with the customer’s current production
process to create a total solution with all parts of
the process chain working together seamlessly.

Process solutions for agrochemicals. Economical, reliable and flexible.
Bühler customers benefit from outstanding agitator bead mill
technology as well as complete customized process solutions –
starting from compact production modules all the way up to
fully automated plants. Solution packages for pass- and circu-
lation operation are based on innovative, user-friendly, and
well-established Bühler technology in bead milling. In addition,
Bühler provides a global manufacturing network and profes-
sional, local customer service.
Bühler’s wet-milling technology is highly productive due to its
efficiency of energy introduction and high flow capability.
The modern, high performance MicroMedia™ mill revolutioniz-
es recirculation operation while showcasing the efficiency and
process advantages created by its innovative chamber design.
The Cenomic™ series combines the traditional design of a
horizontal full volume bead mill with novel construction ele-
ments for improved process efficiency. The smart execution
provides a striking cost benefit balance while increasing pro-
ductivity.
Bühler bead mills are designed using highly wear-resistant
materials and innovative features. This combination provides
longer service life and optimized process stability.
Bühler is the preferred, global technology partner for slurry processing in the agro-chemical industry, providing cost efficient production solutions for suspensions in crop protection (SCs, flowables) and specialty crop nutrition.

Solution packages from Bühler.Optimized pass- and recirculation operation.
As a process technology expert for both pass- and recirculation operation, Bühler is able to carry out the optimal solution for each customer.
Ingredients are mixed in the cooled tank and,
if applicable pre-dispersed. Efficient pre-
grinding increases product quality, as well as
overall productivity of the production line.
Fine milling is carried out on the Cenomic™
bead mill in pass operation. Using several
mills in sequence (multi-pass operation), a
narrower particle size distribution is achieved.
In addition, this set-up allows incremental en-
try of the required milling energy and addi-
tional cooling of the temperature sensitive
formulation using a heat exchanger if neces-
sary. The product can be gently conveyed
using screw pumps. A mass flow meter facili-
tates process control and minimizes the risk
of dry-running.
Ingredients are mixed in the cooled tank and, if
applicable pre-dispersed. Efficient pre-grinding
increases product quality, as well as overall pro-
ductivity of the production line. Fine milling is car-
ried out on the MicroMedia™ high performance
mill, operated in circulation mode. The excellent
cooling capability of the MicroMedia™ mill makes
an additional heat exchanger obsolete. In this
compact layout, the product is circulated through
the mill until the desired particle size is reached.
The mill is ideally suited for high flow rates which
enables high turnover numbers and consequently
a narrow particle size distribution. Circulation
operation allows entry of any energy amount and
therefore exact process control. The product
slurry can be gently conveyed using screw
pumps. A mass flow meter facilitates process
control and minimizes the risk of dry-running.
