Plagioclase grinding mills are used to grind the mineral plagioclase into a fine powder or to achieve a specific particle size for various industrial applications.
CLIRIK plagioclase grinding mills mainly come in 5 types, each suited for specific materials and desired outcomes.
5 types of Plagioclase grinding mills
HGM Micro Powder Grinding Mills
CLIRIK HGM micro powder grinding mills are designed to produce superfine powder.
l Description: Utilizes a central rotating grinding wheel and rollers. Material is fed between the rollers and the wheel, where it is ground to a fine powder.
l Applications: Commonly used for grinding minerals, including plagioclase, to a fine consistency.
l Advantages: Capable of handling large quantities of material and producing fine, uniform particles.
CLUM Ultrafine Vertical Roller Mills
CLIRIK’s CLUM ultrafine vertical roller mills are designed for ultrafine powder processing.
l Description: Uses multiple rotating rollers to crush and grind the material against a grinding table.
l Applications: Suitable for large-scale production and materials requiring fine, uniform particle size.
l Advantages: Energy-efficient and capable of grinding to very fine particle sizes.
Raymond Mills
CLIRIK Raymond mills are used for the grinding and processing of mineral materials.
l Description: Utilizes a central rotating grinding wheel and rollers. Material is fed between the rollers and the wheel, where it is ground to a fine powder.
l Applications: Commonly used for grinding minerals, including plagioclase, to a fine consistency.
l Advantages: Capable of handling large quantities of material and producing fine, uniform particles.
Hammer Mills
CLIRIK hammer mills use repetitive hammering to crush and grind materials.
l Description: Employs rotating hammers to impact and shatter the material.
l Applications: Useful for coarse grinding and materials that do not require uniform particle size.
l Advantages: Versatile and capable of handling a variety of materials, including harder substances.
Ball Mills
CLIRIK ball mills are use balls to grind and crush materials.
l Description: Ball mills use steel balls as the grinding medium, which impact and grind the material as the mill rotates.
l Applications: Suitable for fine grinding and obtaining uniform particle sizes. Often used in laboratories and for small-scale production.
l Advantages: Efficient for producing very fine powders and uniform particle size.
How to choose a plagioclase grinding mill?
When you choose a plagioclase grinding mill, there are five points to consider.
1. Output particle size
The fineness of the final plagioclase powder you need will determine which type of grinding mill is suitable for you.
The hammer mill is suitable for processing coarse powder below 8mm; the Raymond mill and ball mill are suitable for processing fine powder of 80-600 mesh;
The HGM micro powder grinding mill and CLUM ultrafine vertical mill are suitable for processing ultrafine powder of 150-3000 mesh.
2. Material hardness
The hardness of plagioclase is between 6 and 6.5. All of the above grinding mills are applicable. However, the wear of the accessories will be different, which requires specific consultation with the merchant.
3. Production requirements
The hourly production of Hammer mill is 8-70 tons;
The hourly production of Raymond mill is 1-25 tons;
The hourly production of HGM micro powder grinding mill is 0.5-45 tons;
The hourly production of CLUM ultrafine vertical roller mill is 1-20 tons;
The hourly production of Ball mill is 1-200 tons.
4. Energy consumption
Depending on the machine design and grinding principle, CLUM vertical mill and HGM micro powder grinding mill have the lowest energy consumption; Raymond mill is second; Hammer mill has higher energy consumption, and ball mill has the highest energy consumption.
5. Cost:
Hammer Mill and Raymond mill have the lowest price. HGM micro powder grinding mil and ball mill are second; CLUM ultrafine vertical mill has the highest cost.
Applications of Plagioclase Grinding
1. Ceramics: Fine plagioclase powder is used as a raw material in the manufacture of ceramics.
2. Glass Production: Ground plagioclase is a component in glassmaking.
3. Construction Materials: Used as an additive in cement and other construction materials.
4. Industrial Minerals: Provides raw material for various industrial processes requiring specific mineral compositions.
Selecting the appropriate plagioclase grinding mill involves considering these factors to ensure optimal performance and efficiency in achieving the desired particle size and quality of the final product.
