In quartz grinding industry, efficient, accurate and stable equipment is the key to improving production efficiency and product quality. As a professional pabrikan of powder processing equipment, Qingdao Epic Powder Machinery Co., Ltd can produce various powder processing equipment, including: ball mill, roller mill, air classifier mill, jet mill, various air classifiers, and surface modification equipment, dll. Among them, ball mill, pabrik rol and jet mill can be used for quartz grinding.
In this article, we will make a brief analysis about the advantages and disadvantages of these three powder equipment in quartz grinding.
The advantages and disadvantages of three equipment
| Type | Advantages | Disadvantages | 适用场景Applicable scenarios |
| Pabrik bola | - Simple structure, easy operation and maintenance – Flexible control of product particle size – Wide applicability, able to handle materials with high hardness. – Supporting continuous operation and is suitable for large-scale production. | – High energy consumption and high operating cost, loud noise. – The processing capacity is relatively low. – Grinding media and liner are easy to wear, high maintenance cost. – Possibility of contamination of materials by grinding media. | – Ultra-fine grinding of quartz – Scenarios with extremely high granularity requirements. – Small to medium scale or medium volume |
| Roller mill | – The finished product has uniform particle size (30-425 mesh) – Low energy consumption and moderate operating costs – Efficient grinding – Strong structure and long maintenance period – Compact structure and small footprint. | – Sensitive to material humidity (to be less than 6%) – Limited processing capacity, not suitable for extremely high production needs. – Faster wear when grinding super-hard materials – Higher initial investment. | – Medium and very fine grinding of quartz. – Small and medium scale production – Scenarios that require high particle size uniformity. |
| Jet mill | Strong ultra-fine grinding ability (up to 1-45μm) and narrow particle size distribution – No medium pollution, high product purity – Low temperature grinding, suitable for heat-sensitive materials – Suitable for high hardness materials | – High energy consumption and high operating cost – Small processing volume, suitable for small-scale production – Strict requirements on the initial particle size of the material, pre-crushing is required. – High equipment investment. | – Ultrafine grinding of quartz – Scenarios with extremely high particle size requirements and small output requirements. – Production of high purity quartz powder |
Through the above comparative analysis, we found that ball mill is suitable for medium and fine particle processing of quartz, but the energy consumption and noise are high. Roller mill is efficient and has low energy consumption for grinding medium fineness. Jet mill is suitable for ultra-fine grinding and high purity requirement, but it is expensive and energy consumption is high. In general, all three types of equipment can be used for quartz grinding, but according to different grinding purposes, we can make targeted choices.
