A maker of machines that grind, crush, and blend powders into ultra-fine particles, Hosokawa Micron builds the mills and systems used by pharmaceutical, food, chemical, and battery companies around the world. It began in Osaka as a turbine works founded by Eiichi Hosokawa, who pivoted to powder technology after studying a catalog of American grinding machines. The company's name comes from the "Micron Mill," the fine-grinding device Hosokawa spent years developing in the 1920s after earlier work crushing lead for batteries.
