Title:
MonoRoll Testing and Development
Agreement Number:
1029920
Agreement Value:
$75,000.00
Agreement Date:
May 1, 2025 - Feb 27, 2026
Description:
The MonoRoll is the finer grinding prototype in the Conjugate Anvil Hammer Mill (CAHM) technology platform. A first prototype was constructed and initial testing was completed in 2020/2021 as part of the Canadian government's CrushIt! Challenge. The technology was runner up in the challenge after demonstrating a 25% energy savings compared to a ball mill for the same grinding performance. Following the challenge, the development work was paused so that the CAHM team could focus on the coarser grinding CAHM machine, however the team aims to leverage the learnings from the CrushIt! Challenge work to realize the projected 50% energy savings compared to conventional ball milling.
