MillNest designs and manufactures dry powder processing equipment and complete EPC solutions for food, spice, nutraceutical, pharmaceutical, chemical and specialty powder industries.
Application-First Engineering
Material Trials
Food-Grade Design
Academy-Backed Knowledge
The MHAM handles a wide range of dry, brittle, fibrous and spice materials across food, pharma and chemical industries.
Identify your processing problem first. The machine recommendation follows from it.
Heat rise during grinding
Aroma or colour loss
Inconsistent particle size
Excess fines generation
Dusty work environment
Caking or lump formation
Poor blend uniformity
Long cleaning time
Microbial non-compliance
High energy consumption
Manual handling exposure
Scale-up uncertainty
Eleven machines. Each designed around the specific mechanism its material category requires.
High-speed impact milling for free-flowing dry powders
- 100–6,000+ kg/hr throughput
- Interchangeable screens for particle size control
- SS 304/316, food and pharma grade
- D50 down to 5 µm
- Integrated air classification eliminates oversize recirculation
- In-process air cooling for heat-sensitive materials
- 3 selectable milling modes via rotor/stator swap
- Low heat generation — suited to volatile oil-bearing spices
- Coarse granulation to medium-fine powder
- Rotary and stationary blades — clean fracture, low fines
- Suited to dried herbs, leafy spices and cotyledon splitting
- Low energy input vs impact milling for same material class
- 50–20,000 L capacity range
- ±1–3% RSD blend uniformity; 5–15 min cycle
- Flush bottom discharge — zero residual heel between batches
- Staggered angled paddles eliminate dead zones in dense material
- Inline liquid spray bar for oil and water addition
- Paddle-assisted discharge prevents bridging at outlet valve
- 50–300 RPM vs 3,000–6,000 RPM in a hammer mill
- Restores free-flowing condition without changing PSD
- Inline at hopper discharge, blender inlet or packing station
- 102–122°C, 20–40 seconds, 4–6 bar steam
- Salmonella absent per 25g; no chemicals, no irradiation
- Continuous shaking bed with integrated fluid bed dryer
- 85–98°C, ~1 bar atmospheric steam
- For dehydrated onion/garlic, dried herbs, hygroscopic botanicals
- Maillard browning and chlorophyll degradation thresholds not crossed
- 40–200°C inlet air; batch bowl or continuous plug-flow
- Three modes: drying, cooling, post-sterilization moisture restoration
- Therma Process shaking bed technology; HEPA sterile air option
Each engineering discipline designed around the specific mechanism the application requires.
MillNest is a brand of Jaivik Food & Research Pvt. Ltd., founded in 2015 by J K Sharma in Pune, Maharashtra. We design and manufacture dry powder processing equipment and deliver complete EPC solutions for food, spice, pharmaceutical, chemical and agro industries — across India and internationally.
Our engineering philosophy is application-first: every machine recommendation, every process line design and every installation starts from the material’s physical properties and the output specification — not from what equipment happens to be in stock.
MillNest holds the authorised partnership with Therma Process, Netherlands — a specialist engineering company for natural steam sterilization, pasteurization and fluid bed drying systems, formerly known as TEMA Process B.V. Therma Process brings decades of continuous HT-ST steam technology to Indian processing plants — engineered, installed and commissioned locally by MillNest, with full EPC accountability.
From single-machine installations to complete turnkey lines — MillNest equipment runs in processing plants across India.















Equipment is the start. MillNest surrounds every installation with the knowledge, tools, spares and services that keep it running at specification — from day one through the full plant lifecycle.
Structured learning for powder processing engineers and plant operators — equipment selection, process troubleshooting, material behaviour and industry compliance. Free enrolment.
Premium refurbished equipment — inspected, rebuilt and performance-certified to new-machine specification. Second-life engineering at a fraction of new capital cost.
Genuine spares, preventive maintenance contracts and on-site service engineers — for every machine MillNest supplies, for the full working life of the installation.
Machine Selector, Plant Efficiency Audit tool and the full MillNest platform — find the right machine, diagnose your process and get engineering guidance in one place.
Book a material trial at the MillNest facility before any capital commitment — heat rise, particle size response, dust behaviour, flowability and scale-up risk confirmed on your actual material.
The same SS 304/316 construction standard across every industry — the configuration changes, the quality does not.
Build your processing line with application-first engineering.
Send us your material details, target output and production goal. MillNest will help you identify the right process route and machine — confirmed with a material trial before any capital commitment.
