Abstract
An air-jet mill provided with pregrinding chambers and inner sizer suitable for fine grinding (below 10 .mu.), for cryogenic grinding and also for surface treatment during grinding of hard, elastic and/or thermoplastic materials. During operation there are no moving components to be exposed to heavy wear, and an inner sizer, forming an integral part of the grinding space, uses the energy left after grinding in the system to enable a sharp sizing or separation of fine fractions.
