Henan Hongke Heavy Machinery Co., Ltd. just completed the installation of a Φ 1.5×3m ball mill for a catalyst producer in the Zhengzhou Airport Zone. The mill is now ready to run. Here's the story.
What the Customer Needed
This customer makes specialty catalysts for petrochemical and environmental use. Catalyst materials are sensitive—you can't just throw them in any mill. They needed:
Gentle, consistent grinding
No contamination
No damage to the active phases
A reliable machine that wouldn't cause headaches
They also wanted a supplier they could trust—not just for this mill, but for the long run.
Why They Chose Us
They did their homework. Talked to other processors. Compared specs. Asked around.
Here's what they found:
Our reputation is solid – other customers told them our mills run smooth and last
We built it for their material – not a generic mill, but one designed for catalyst grinding
We supplied the whole package – mill, drive, controls, installation support
We don't disappear after the sale – spare parts, technical help, maintenance advice
That's why they picked Henan Hongke Machinery.
