Micronization Excellence Center (MEC) is an exciting addition to FPS capabilities; it is located at FPS production facility in Fiorenzuola d’Arda (Italy). Our R&D and Test Center is equipped with ISO8 test suites that allow the execution of micronization technical tests from laboratory to pilot, to production quantities.
The center is equipped with state-of-the-art with up-to-date jet milling and milling equipment as well as the analytical instruments. Two isolators are also available to protect the products and the operators. The MEC can be used for process optimization of a known product or for defining the best process of a new product.
Special configuration of micronization equipment can be arranged for dedicated testing on a large range of size reduction machines.
