History

For more than 110 years, the Paul O. Abbe® name has signified custom designed and manufactured quality size reduction mills, solids mixers and blenders and vacuum drying systems for virtually every process industry. Starting in 1911 in Little Falls, New Jersey, Paul O. Abbe® first provided the mills for the fine milling and dispersing of pigments used in the local silk dyeing factories. Expanding into other industries, even such notables as Thomas A. Edison realized the benefits of Ball Mills and utilized Paul O. Abbe Jar Mills at his laboratory in Menlo Park for fine grinding a variety of raw materials used in his research.

During the next 100 hundred years, under the guidance of a new generation and company, we, under the Paul O. Abbe® brand, will develop vacuum dryer technology and mixers for solids and paste. Paul O. Abbe® brand process equipment can be found in all industries from advanced ceramics and semi-conductors manufacturing to composite fibers, polymers, agricultural chemicals, food and pharmaceutical manufacturing. Let us apply our broad range of expertise and equipment to solve almost any solids drying, mixing or milling application.
