Sugar Grinder Complete Guide: Principles, Usage, Selection & Applications

Sugar serves as a core raw material in food, pharmaceutical, health product and other industries. The refinement and stability of its grinding process directly affect the quality of end products. As a specialized device designed for sugar materials, the Sugar Grinder solves the processing pain points of sugar—such as moisture absorption, easy caking and heat sensitivity—by virtue of its adaptive design and precise control technology.

Zhengzhou Pinchuang Machinery Equipment Co., Ltd. will provide a comprehensive interpretation of our sugar grinder from six dimensions: working principle, design logic, operation method, application scenarios, core advantages and selection skills.

I. Main Structural Components

• Feeding System: Hopper with adjustable baffle, designed to feed white granulated sugar into the grinding chamber uniformly and controllably.
• Grinding Chamber (Core Part)
  • Rotor: Component mounted on the main shaft, equipped with movable or fixed gear rings, which is the part generating high-speed kinetic energy.
  • Stator/Gear Ring: Toothed or toothless liner fixed on the inner wall of the grinding chamber, cooperating with the rotor to form impact and shearing zones.
  • Screen Mesh: Surrounding the rotor, it’s the key component that determines the fineness of finished products. The smaller the screen aperture (mesh size), the finer the finished sugar powder.
• Drive System: High-power motor that drives the main shaft to rotate at high speed (rotating speed can reach several thousand revolutions per minute) via belt or coupling.
• Discharging & Collecting System: After grinding, the sugar powder passes through the screen mesh, then is sucked out by the negative pressure airflow generated by the fan. It is transported to the cyclone separator or bag filter for gas-solid separation. The finished sugar powder is collected, and the clean air is discharged or recycled.

II. Scope of Application

• အစားအသောက်လုပ်ငန်း: Baking (preparation of fine sugar powder), beverage (grinding of glucose powder and maltodextrin), candy (refining of rock sugar and white granulated sugar). It improves the uniformity of raw material mixing and dissolution rate.
• ဆေးဝါးလုပ်ငန်း: Grinding of sugar excipients for traditional Chinese medicine syrups and oral solid preparations. It meets GMP compliance requirements and ensures stable particle size of excipients.
• Health Product Industry: Processing of sugar auxiliary materials for probiotic granules and nutritional meal replacements. The low-temperature process preserves functional ingredients and avoids nutrient damage caused by high temperature.
• Chemical & Cosmetic Industry: Grinding of raw materials such as glucose and maltodextrin, which are used in the production of daily chemicals and chemical additives.

III. How to Choose the Right Model of Sugar Grinder

(1) Clarify Core Requirement Parameters

• စွမ်းရည် Matching: Choose based on your scale—personal use, small startup shop, small processing factory, medium-sized enterprise, or large production line.
• Fineness Requirement: Optional range from 10 to 120 mesh.
• Space & Energy Consumption: Small and medium-sized enterprises are advised to choose models with small floor space and low power. Large enterprises need to consider the compatibility of the equipment with existing production lines.
