The IPA Mill
The IPA Mill is built for companies who want robust performance and durability, but with a modern and economical design. IPA’s innovative approach uses a simple engineering design without compromising the original function of this industry “Workhorse.”
Mills within the industry have used the same manufacturing practices for decades. IPA’s experienced & innovative team used a simple engineering design and modern approach with functional improvements as the top priority. It features a single GMP tubular base design that meets the requirements for industrial, pharmaceutical, and nutraceutical applications. The base is powder coated to withstand most harsh cleaning agents and allows for drainage to avoid standing water. IPA’s flywheels are designed for ease of removal and installation, minimizing down-time and improving efficiency when maintaining equipment in the field.
This stainless steel mill series includes seven models, all of which can be configured to produce particle size distributions from half inch to 80 mesh. Historically, this mill has been preferred to process cannabis, dried foods & purees, reclaimed off spec materials, all nutraceutical based products, and various chemicals.

Dairy Mills
IPA manufactures a mill design built according the USDA Dairy guidelines. It is the classic workhorse for processing hard cheeses, lactose, and whey. This unit is preferred in the Dairy and Food industries as it is designed and machined using plate weldments. Due to the generally harsh washing demands of dairy mills, it’s manufactured using high polish, unexposed threads, and continuous radius welds to ease the task.
Hemp & Cannabis Milling
Milling hemp & cannabis is a challenging process due to the significant difference between leaf and stem. Specifically, we know the leaf portion of the plant can be milled with ease, while the stems are fibrous and require a more aggressive approach. This ‘mixed-texture’ requires a delicate balance in order to preserve the integrity of the oils. With the proper mill configuration, the IPA Mill will consistently provide a uniform particle size distribution prior to the oil extraction process.
Historically, our mill has been preferred and replicated within the industry due to its durable design and capability to handle cannabis & hemp products. This ‘Workhorse’ continues to be best suited for producing consistent quality with minimal downtime. While competitors may have replicated the equipment, IPA has the experiential knowledge & problem solving skills necessary to achieve an efficient & desired final product to meet your demands.
