  2. Chemical milling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_milling

    Chemical milling or industrial etching is the subtractive manufacturing process of using baths of temperature-regulated etching chemicals to remove material to create an object with the desired shape. [1][2] Other names for chemical etching include photo etching, chemical etching, photo chemical etching and photochemical machining.

  3. Ball mill - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ball_mill

    A ball mill is a type of grinder filled with grinding balls, used to grind or blend materials for use in mineral dressing processes, paints, pyrotechnics, ceramics, and selective laser sintering. It works on the principle of impact and attrition: size reduction is done by impact as the balls drop from near the top of the shell.

  4. Milling (machining) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milling_(machining)

    Milling is the process of machining using rotary cutters to remove material [ 1 ] by advancing a cutter into a workpiece. This may be done by varying directions [ 2 ] on one or several axes, cutter head speed, and pressure. [ 3 ] Milling covers a wide variety of different operations and machines, on scales from small individual parts to large ...

  5. Cryogenic grinding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryogenic_grinding

    Cryogenic grinding, also known as freezer milling, freezer grinding, and cryomilling, is the act of cooling or chilling a material and then reducing it into a small particle size. For example, thermoplastics are difficult to grind to small particle sizes at ambient temperatures because they soften, adhere in lumpy masses and clog screens.

  6. Ceramic engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceramic_engineering

    Milling is the process by which materials are reduced from a large size to a smaller size. Milling may involve breaking up cemented material (in which case individual particles retain their shape) or pulverization (which involves grinding the particles themselves to a smaller size).

  7. Pharmaceutical manufacturing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pharmaceutical_manufacturing

    Toledo Pharmacal Company from Toledo, Ohio seen in 1905. Pharmaceutical manufacturing is the process of industrial-scale synthesis of pharmaceutical drugs as part of the pharmaceutical industry. The process of drug manufacturing can be broken down into a series of unit operations, such as milling, granulation, coating, tablet pressing, and others.

  8. Micronization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micronization

    Micronization is the process of reducing the average diameter of a solid material's particles. Traditional techniques for micronization focus on mechanical means, such as milling and grinding. Modern techniques make use of the properties of supercritical fluids and manipulate the principles of solubility. The term micronization usually refers ...

  9. Wiley mill - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiley_mill

    The Wiley mill is a laboratory-scale machine for grinding materials to a powder, and belongs to the family of cutting mills. These mills prepare materials for analysis with minimal moisture loss. Well-dried samples are preferred. In the grinding mill, the material is loaded cut into crude pieces or lumps and loaded into a hopper.
