DESIGN FEATURES
- Heavy construction and a rigid refiner case maintain a better tram resulting in less vibration, longer bearing life and lower maintenance cost.
- Heavy Duty motor supports
- Heavy Duty motor mounting plate
- Large diameter motor mounting rods
- All process contact parts are 316 stainless steel, protecting against corrosion and extending operating life
- Hand wheel adjustment easily sets the rotating disc position accurately to control grinding plate gap within 1/1000 of an inch
- Split Bearing Housing Design
The quick release mechanism on the 36″ single disc mill combines precise control of plate gap with benefit of ability to quickly back off the discs and return to preset operating gap.

Bearings are grease lubricated and do not require additional grease except during annual maintenance.
494 Retrofit
A 494-52 is a retrofitted 494, remanufactured to Fluid-Quip’s standards, and cutting-edge production. A rebuilt machine offers the same performance and dependability of Fluid-Quip’s new machines using the frame of the old machine and keeping the foot print the same. This reduces piping and mounting costs and may reduce manufacturing costs as well. Once rebuilt the new machine will accept all of Fluid-Quips replacement parts to lower cost of maintenance and increase dependability. Quill assembly and other various parts are interchangeable with other Fluid-Quip products and are still currently manufactured.
The 494-52 is a direct driven single 52”-disc grind mill with freestanding coupled motor designed for high capacity heavy-duty operation with optimum tram alignment, minimal vibration and lasting durability and to be driven by a maximum of 1000 horsepower (746 kW) at up to 1800 rpm.
FQ-236
The FQ-236 Double Disc Mill is designed for optimum tram alignment, minimal vibration, and lasting durability. The mill has two 36” counter-rotating discs that can operate at up to 1800 rpm, each driven by a maximum of 250 attached horsepower (186 kW) through belt drive systems with extra heavy motor supports.
The FQ-236 mill features a feed end and a control end. The control end can be fitted with a quick release assembly or auto adjust technology.
