Industrial Atomization Technologies & Precision Spray Systems

AKSH Engineering Systems Pvt. Ltd. is a premier manufacturer and supplier of advanced Industrial Atomization Technologies based in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India. Atomization is the heart of any spray drying plant—it directly governs droplet size, moisture removal rates, thermal efficiency, and the final bulk density and flowability of the dried powder.

We offer state-of-the-art atomization systems—including high-speed rotary disc atomizers, hydraulic pressure nozzles, and two-fluid pneumatic nozzles—designed to handle everything from low-viscosity solutions to heavy, abrasive, and highly thixotropic chemical slurries.

Core Atomization Technologies We Offer

Our engineering team customizes atomization assemblies based on your feed material's rheology, target particle size distribution, and throughput demands.

1. Rotary Disc (Centrifugal) Atomization

Rotary disc atomizers utilize a high-speed rotating wheel, cup, or vaned disc driven by high-efficiency motors to break liquid feeds into uniform micro-droplets via centrifugal force.

  • Key Advantages: Exceptional versatility across high-viscosity feeds and abrasive slurries without risk of nozzle clogging.

  • Best Suited For: Food dyes, pigments, ceramics, starches, and high-capacity ZLD effluent spray dryers.

2. Pressure Nozzle Atomization (Single-Fluid)

Single-fluid hydraulic nozzles utilize high feed pressure to force liquid through a small, precision-engineered orifice, converting fluid velocity into energy that disintegrates the stream into droplets.

  • Key Advantages: Delivers narrow particle size distribution with high bulk density and granular, spherical bead structures.

  • Best Suited For: Detergents, ceramic tiles, catalysts, and free-flowing industrial salts.

3. Two-Fluid Pneumatic Nozzle Atomization

Two-fluid nozzles combine the liquid feed stream with a high-velocity gas (compressed air or steam) inside or outside the nozzle tip to shear the liquid into ultra-fine droplets.

  • Key Advantages: Produces fine powders (micro-droplets) and allows independent adjustment of spray patterns, airflow, and feed viscosity.

  • Best Suited For: Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs), heat-sensitive herbal extracts, and pilot plant testing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Rotary disc atomizers use centrifugal force generated by a high-speed wheel to break up liquid, making them virtually immune to clogging and ideal for viscous slurries. Nozzle atomizers rely on fluid pressure or compressed air forced through tiny orifices, making them better suited for generating very fine or highly uniform, granular powders.

We engineer atomization assemblies using specialized hard-faced alloys, ceramic inserts, and hardened stainless steel (such as SS316L or Hastelloy). Critical wear zones on rotary wheels and nozzle tips are reinforced with Tungsten Carbide or Stellite coatings to resist high erosion.

Yes. AKSH Engineering Systems supplies retrofitted rotary disc atomizers, high-pressure pumps, nozzle assemblies, and drive shafts designed to fit existing spray drying systems, helping upgrade droplet quality and system throughput without complete plant replacement.
