Librixer Micronizer
Librixer Fractionator
Unique liberation along natural boundaries
In the microscope image you'll see a single oak fiber, liberated by the Librixer. An example of the uniqueness that can be created through the process of micronization.
The intact fiber has an unmatched aspect ratio while still being intact. Source material; recycled French oak from a whiskey barrel; dry-aged and liberated.
A closer look at liberation using yellow peas.
Drag the slider left or right to compare material structures
Above is a cross-section SEM image of yellow peas.
Drag the slider to compare protein and starch before and after liberation – with the end result being protein powder and intact starch ready for sorting.
Bi-modal PSD diagram
Traditional grinding techniques tend to normally result in a bell-shaped distribution curve. Our technology can, through release along natural boundaries, produce humped curves – which in turn facilitate mechanical sorting of composites where the different parts have different mechanical characteristics.
The diagram shows liberated, micronized and de-hulled kernels, where the pericarp's more flexible fiber structure commonly results in larger particles compared to the rest of the seed.
