Unit price: about USD2,000
This article provides a detailed overview of the core features, technical specifications, and advantages of the SLU series small sugar grinder machine. Specifically designed to meet the needs of small-batch white sugar powder milling, this series small grinder represents the ideal equipment choice for food processing, baking ingredient preparation, and the catering supply sector.
It refers to a specialized milling device engineered for the small-scale industrial production of powdered sugar. Its primary function is to grind white sugar(sugar crystals) into fine powder(watch following video). The powdered sugar is widely utilized across various fields, including baking, dessert making, beverage production, and general food processing.
Unlike large-scale industrial sugar grinder, the small size grinder is strategically positioned with the following core characteristics:
● Small-Scale Production: Perfectly suited for enterprises with a daily output capacity of a few hundred kilograms.
● Low Capital Investment: With starting prices around $2,000 USD, the financial barrier to entry is exceptionally low.
● Flexible and Efficient: Designed to operate as a standalone unit, requiring no complex auxiliary equipment or supporting infrastructure.
The SLU series stands as a quintessential representative of this product category. In particular, the SLU-10 and SLU-20 models, distinguished by their affordability and consistent and reliable pulverizing performance, have emerged as the ideal choice.
The SLU series comprises small, medium, and large-scale standalone units. As this specific product page focuses on small-scale sugar pulverizing applications, we will limit our discussion here to two specific models: the SLU-10 and the SLU-20.

Above, we have introduced the definition and core parameters of the device. So, what is the core configuration and working principle of the grinder? Please refer to the following instructions.
Based on the sugar grinding usage, we suggest to equip the SLU grinder with either hammer-type or blade-type crushing blades. Each design offers its own advantages:
Blade Type | Working Principle | Advantage | Crushing Effect |
Hammer blade | Hammer type disc plate, friction between the moving hammer and the fixed hammer generates a force. | Low heat generation | Strong crushing force, high efficiency
|
Knife blade | The interaction between the rotating blade and the ring gear creates a crushing force. | Good crushing stability and stable current | Good uniformity and controllable fineness |

Sieve adjustment: Control the fineness of powder discharge by replacing sieves with different aperture sizes
Mesh Number | Fineness | Applicable scenarios |
60mesh | Coarse sugar powder | For general baking |
80mesh | Standard sugar powder | For routine use
|
100mesh | Fine sugar powder | For premium pastry |
120mesh | Fine sugar powder | For fine texture requirements |

Advantage | Description |
Compact design | Small footprint; suitable for small-scale production.
|
Low investment cost | Starting price of approximately $2,000; requires minimal initial capital. |
Adjustable fineness | flexibly adjustable by changing the sieve screen. |
Simple operation | Standalone unit; operates independently without the need for complex auxiliary equipment. |
Application Scenario | Description |
Bakery | Homemade powdered sugar used for surface decoration of cakes, cookies, and desserts |
Bread Shop | Powdered sugar used for dusting the surfaces of bread and donuts |
Chinese Pastries | Powdered sugar used as an ingredient in traditional pastries |
Instant Beverages | Powdered sugar used as a flavoring ingredient |

The SLU series small sugar grinder machine is an economical equipment custom-tailored for small-scale industrial sugar powder production. Featuring a starting price of approximately $2,000, a production capacity of 20–60 kg/h, and a fineness range of 60–150 mesh, it represents an exceptional value choice for small-scale sugar powder manufacturing.
