They were struggling with heavy screen smear on their 2mm rasp screen. Screen smear was subsequently affecting uniformity of particle size of their milled cannabis, as well as increasing the processing time it took for the cannabis to be shredded using the mill. Additionally, they saw instances of kief balling\/packing within their mill, further exacerbating the issues.<\/p>\n<h2>\n\t\tTHE EXPERIMENT\n\t<\/h2>\n\t<p>On November 1, 2023, Mobius Automation Specialists visited the client&#8217;s facility to address their milling concerns. Mobius devised an experiment to determine if operating the mill at lower room temperatures could correspond with less screen smearing.<\/p>\n<p>Two room temperature variants (4\u00b0C\/40\u00b0F and 10\u00b0C\/50\u00b0F) were to be tested, each with two product variants: one at ambient room temperature and with frozen material (frozen in chest freezer and held in coolers until milled).<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Product Details:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Moisture Content: 7-9%, averaging 8.5%<\/p>\n<p>Characteristics: 0.2-0.5g bud size, with small pointy stems prior to milling.
