Profile

About Mark

Mark Dai is the founder and deputy general manager of Qingdao EPIC Powder Machinery Co., Ltd. He started EPIC with a single focus: engineering reliable ultrafine powder equipment — jet mills, air classifier mills, air classifiers, ball-mill classification lines and powder coating machines — and supporting every line from process design through commissioning.

Under his leadership EPIC has grown from a Qingdao workshop into a manufacturer serving customers in more than 160 countries and regions, with its own test centre where customer materials are trialled before a line is specified. Mark still works close to the engineering: reviewing process flowsheets, signing off machine selections for difficult materials, and setting the quality standards the factory builds to.

His conviction is simple — a powder line should be designed around the material and the particle-size target, not around a catalogue. That principle runs through EPIC’s equipment range and the technical guides the company publishes for engineers worldwide.
