7.1. FUNCTIONAL PRINCIPLE


The machine disperses, de-agglomerates and homogenizes powdered
material to liquid or highly viscous suspensions. At the same time the
product is degassed.
The three rollers rotate reversely with various speeds in a speed ratio of
approx. 1:3:9.
Roller 3 (c) has the highest speed.
The product is supplied into gap 1 (a) where it is pre-dispersed.
Then the product is supplied to gap 2 (b), where the final dispersion takes
place.
The scraper knife (d) scrapes the product from roller 3 (c), and the product
flows off via the scraper socket (e).
The fineness of the final product can be influenced by various gap settings,
speed settings and the number of passes.

7.8. ROLLER TEMPERATURE CONTROL


The roller temperature control enables cooling or heating of the rollers. 2
different temperature control systems are available.
 Pressureless cooling
 Pressure cooling

For the temperature control of the three roller mill 80E PLUS,
EXAKT recommends using the cooling circulator bath thermostat
by HUBER, model MPC-K6. The unit can be procured via EXAKT
and is then delivered with tube connections matching the three
roller mill and with optimum control configuration.

NOTE
Danger of destruction of device components
It is mandatory to add Glysantin® G48® as corrosion protection to the
water. Operation with water without corrosion protection is not permitted.
Three roller mills with pressure cooling (closed circulation loop) must never
be run dry. Even if no temperature control of the rollers is required for the
application, tempering fluid must circulate through the rollers. This is required
to prevent damage to the rotary units or the rollers.

27891EN-900-02 / Edition 02/2017 39


Unit description

7.8.1. PRESSURELESS COOLING

NOTE
Danger of destruction of device components
› Check coolant filling level during operation.
› If the filling level is steadily increasing in the green area or latest if it is too
high as indicated by the red area, there is a risk that coolant will overflow
within the machine.
Check coolant flow in the return flow for obstacles (kinks, cloggings, steady
gradient), reduce inlet flow if necessary

› Only allow a trained electrician to connect the machine.

The electrical installation of the unit must be done by specialized personnel who
are qualified according to the local or legal requirements and regulations.
When connecting machines without frequency converter (progressive speed
control), pay attention to the correct rotary field. These machines require a
clockwise rotary field. Roller 3 (delivery roller) must rotate towards the scraper.
Should that be not the case, check if the rotary field is correct and correct, if
necessary.
Before connecting the unit, make sure that the local system is in perfect
condition according to the legal requirements of the respective country.

9.4.4. CONNECTION VARIANT 3: CONNECTION VIA


THREE-POLES STANDARD PLUG (MIN. 15A)
If the unit is equipped with a three-pole standard connector (in Germany e.g.
CEE plug 16A acc. to DIN EN 60309), an RCCB type B 30mA acc. to DIN EN
61008 must be installed in the system to be connected.
All-current sensitive RCCBs (alternating current, pulsating direct current and
direct current) of type B react to all types of residual current. A typical
application is the protection of circuits containing frequency converters. In all
three roller mills with speed control (80S, 80E and all 120E models), frequency
converters are used to adjust the speed.
Note: When switching off the unit, the intermediate circuit of the frequency
converter discharges and the RCCB can potentially be triggered by mistake!
Therefore we recommend to install a separate circuit with RCCB for this
machine in that connection variant.

WARNING
When using RCCBs of type A, which are not designed for all
types of residual currents, erroneous triggering can occur, or the
DC voltage generated by the frequency converter causes a bias
current making the RCCB lose its function!

Setup

10.5. ADJUSTING THE SCRAPER CONTACT PRESSURE


The contact pressure of the scraper system is generated by an adjustable
tension spring. The tension spring is adjusted via the adjustment wheel (a). The
hand (b) displays the value on a scale.
Low scale value = low contact pressure, high scale value = high contact
pressure

Fig. 47: Increasing the scraper contact pressure Fig. 48: Reducing the scraper contact pressure

a Setting dial for scraper force


b Scale

› Increase scraper contact pressure by turning the wheel to the right.


› Reduce scraper contact pressure by turning the wheel to the left.
1. Set scraper contact pressure to the minimum value at which the product is
removed neatly. In general, the scale value should be 1..2.

27891EN-900-02 / Edition 02/2017 77


Setup

If the contact pressure is too high or too low, product removal


might deteriorate.
Contact pressure too high increases wear of the scraper knife.
At first installation, the contact pressure is set to minimum
pressure.
For the characteristics if the contact pressure is too low, refer to
chapter 15 Troubleshooting.
We recommend not to increase the contact pressure higher than
the scale value 3; else check the scraper knife for proper
function should it be necessary nonetheless.

Danger of roller destruction in force mode.

NOTE
Roller destruction due to product film too thin or missing
› The rollers always need a product film so that the rollers do not run dry on
each other and get damaged.
› NEVER let the machine run empty uncontrolled or without product in gap
mode at gap values <20 Inc
› In force mode, keep monitoring and ensure that there is always a product
film on the rollers. Here, too, avoid uncontrolled running empty of the
machine.

12.8.1.STEP 1

1. Clean machine housing.


2. Mount splash tray.
3. Mount cleaning guard.
4. Clean machine.
5. Adjust the machine.
6. Select the desired working width (170 mm) via the operating unit.
7. Insert plastic guides 170 mm.
8. Mount safety device for nip gap (170 mm).
9. Change control into routine operations.
10. Gap settings gap 1= 10 Inc; gap 2 = 10 Inc.

12.8.2.STEP 2
11. Mount the scraper socket with scraper knife.
12. Supply product with spatula.
13. Start machine with speed 100 rpm.
14. Increase gap 1 step by step until an even product film forms. The gap
settings of gap 1 should then be around 30 Inc.

27891EN-900-02 / Edition 02/2017 121


Operation

It is important that nip gap and scraper gap are coordinated.


The product film should have an even width on all rollers and an
even thickness per roller.
The setting ratio from gap 1 to gap 2 should not exceed the value
of approx. 8:1 because else a product jam upstream of gap 2 can
arise and the product is pushed outward (see 12.8.3 Optimum
product flow)
In general, good results can be achieved with a gap ratio gap 1
: gap 2 of approx. 3:1.

15. Take up the product with the spatula and supply it back to gap 1 (nip
gap).

› To remove the product from the scraper system, use a separate


spatula so that the finely grates product is not contaminated with
raw product.

122 27891EN-900-02 / Edition 02/2017


Operation

Fig. 104: Ratio gap 1 / gap 2 too large

If gap 2 is set relatively too tight, the product will flow laterally
outwards and causes leaks of the plastic guides (working widths
85 mm and 170 mm) because the product is transported back from
the center roller back to gap 1 over the newly created width.

With working width 200 mm, the relatively narrow gap 2 causes the
product to pass over at the roller edges, possibly the product is
darted off by roller 3 in this area.

27891EN-900-02 / Edition 02/2017 123


Operation

12.9. REVERSE FUNCTION

In reversing mode, the rollers rotate backwards and foreign objects


or a product jam can be removed.

WARNING
Danger of being pulled in by the rollers:
In reversing mode, gap 2 becomes the nip gap. Increased risk of
being pulled in because this gap is not covered by a safety device.
› When working at the machine, pay attention to your hands and
fingers.
› Ensure tight-fitting clothes.
