We are Liming Heavy Industry, a manufacturer of various types of industrial crushers, such as Raymond Mill, Trapezoidal Mill, Vertical Mill, Ultrafine Mill, Ball Mill, etc.
Our mills can process the following minerals:
limestone, quicklime, kaolin, talc, barite, bentonite, calcium carbonate, dolomite, coal, gypsum, clay, carbon black, slag, cement raw materials, cement clinker, etc.
If you need a mill to process stone or minerals into powder, please feel free to contact me (WhatsApp: +8615333807511). Thank you.
The main motor drives the grinding table to rotate via a high-torque reduction gearbox. Simultaneously, a high-velocity air stream enters the mill through the air inlet. Raw material is fed through the screw conveyor’s discharge spout, landing directly at the center of the rotating table. Driven by centrifugal force, the material spreads uniformly toward the outer edge.
As the material passes through the grinding track, it is crushed under the immense pressure of the grinding rollers. Large chunks are fractured instantly, while finer particles are compressed into a stable material bed, facilitating high-efficiency inter-particle grinding. The pulverized material continues its outward movement until it encounters the powerful upward air current at the nozzle ring (vane ring).
Heavier, coarse particles lose momentum and fall back onto the table for re-grinding. The remaining material is carried by the airflow to the dynamic classifier at the top. Here, adjustable rotor blades reject any oversized grains, returning them to the table. Only the qualified fine powder passes through the separator to be collected by the system's dust collector as the final product.
To protect the internals, foreign contaminants like iron scraps move to the table's edge but are too heavy to be lifted by the air. These rejects fall into the lower chamber, where scraper blades installed at the bottom of the table push them into the discharge port for removal.
