The mill preferred for wet grinding is the horizontal mill. This preference is due to its efficient use of small media, significant reduction in product loss, and consistent performance.
Efficient Use of Small Media: Horizontal mills are designed with a horizontal tubular grinding chamber and an agitator shaft with disks at the center. The energy transfer from the disks to the fluid and the product is sheared by the media surface rather than the disks themselves. This design allows for the use of media as small as 0.25 mm and as large as 2 mm, ensuring a highly efficient grinding process.
Reduction in Product Loss: Horizontal mills offer a significant reduction in product loss during the wet grinding process. This efficiency is crucial for maintaining high yield and minimizing waste, which is beneficial for both economic and environmental reasons.
Consistent Performance: These mills are known for their consistent and predictable performance, which is essential for maintaining quality in the final product. They require relatively low operation, control, and maintenance, which contributes to their reliability and ease of use. Additionally, horizontal mills resist abrasion and minimize contamination, further enhancing their suitability for wet grinding applications.
In summary, the horizontal mill stands out as the preferred choice for wet grinding due to its ability to handle small media efficiently, reduce product loss, and deliver consistent, high-quality results with minimal maintenance requirements.
