STM EcoSystems

STM has been developing and marketing advanced technologies for the field of fine and ultra-fine grinding since 1980, and for the last twenty years in particular its has been working on grinding sodium bicarbonate for smoke depuration. On the strength of this long experience, STM aimed to design an innovative machine which is a perfect integration of mechanical and electronic technology, guaranteeing unrivalled performance in terms of reliability, productivity and energy savings. The optimum use of power which results from the new horizontal layout of the grinding surface combined with a highly efficient classifier is confirmed by the minimal temperature increase detectable inside the grinding chamber. This indicates that practically all the energy is used for grinding, and not dissipated in the form of heat. If we consider that over the lifetime of a mill, energy costs are significantly greater than the initial investment, efficient energy use is crucially important both economically and from an environmental point of view.
