The Raymond mill YGM130 is a high-pressure grinding mill suitable for processing gypsum into fine powder (80-400 mesh). Henan Baichy Machinery’s Raymond mill YGM130 has commenced installation at a gypsum powder production plant in Iraq now. The YGM130, renowned for its precision and efficiency, will process raw gypsum into 80–325 mesh powder with stable quality—supported by its high-speed classifier for fineness control, impurity-resistant grinding components, and integrated dust management. Baichy’s technical team is on-site to oversee installation, ensuring seamless setup and alignment with local operational needs.
Gypsum (CaSO₄·2H₂O) is a soft mineral (Mohs hardness 1.5–2), making it ideal for grinding with RAYMOND mills—equipment designed for low-to-medium hardness materials. Gypsum powder is widely used in construction, agriculture, and industrial applications. In Iraq, where infrastructure development is growing, setting up a gypsum powder production plant with a YGM130 Raymond mill offers an efficient and cost-effective solution. The YGM130 model is particularly suited to Iraq’s needs due to:
● Optimal Capacity: Produces 3–20 tons per hour of gypsum powder (80–325 mesh), matching the scale of medium-sized Iraqi construction projects.
● Energy Efficiency: Operates on 75kW main motor power, critical in Iraq’s energy-constrained regions where stable electricity is a priority.
● Adaptability: Handles raw gypsum lumps (crushed to ≤25mm) from local mines, reducing reliance on imported processed powder.
The working principle of the Raymond mill YGM130 for gypsum powder production involves a systematic grinding and classification process, as follows:
1. Material Feeding: Crushed gypsum raw materials (sized ~20-30mm) are fed into the raymond mill chamber uniformly via a screw conveyor.
2. Grinding Process: Inside the chamber, the rotating central shaft drives the grinding roller assembly. Under centrifugal force, the rollers press tightly against the stationary grinding ring. As materials enter the gap between rollers and rings, they are crushed, ground, and pulverized into fine particles by continuous rolling and friction.
3. Air Classification: Simultaneously, hot air (from a blower) is introduced into the mill. The fine gypsum particles are carried upward by the airflow to the high-speed centrifugal classifier. The classifier’s rotating impeller separates particles by size: qualified fine powder (80-325 mesh, adjustable via impeller speed) passes through the impeller gaps, while oversize particles are rejected and fall back to the grinding chamber for reprocessing.
4. Collection of Finished Product: The qualified fine powder, entrained in the airflow, enters a cyclone collector. Here, the airflow slows, and the gypsum powder settles due to gravity, then is discharged as the final product.
5. Dust Removal & Air Recirculation: Residual airflow (with minimal fine dust) is filtered by a pulse bag filter to capture remaining particles, ensuring clean emissions. The purified air is either recirculated for reuse or exhausted, completing the closed-loop system.
This integrated process ensures efficient grinding, precise fineness control, and continuous production of high-quality gypsum powder.
1. Precise fineness control: A high-speed centrifugal classifier (15kW motor) adjusts speed to screen 80–325 mesh particles. Coarse powder is automatically re-ground, ensuring uniform particle size for diverse uses (e.g., 80–120 mesh for plaster, 200–325 mesh for drywall).
2. Purity assurance: High-chromium alloy rollers and rings minimize metal impurities. Paired with upstream crushing/screening, it removes clay and stones from raw materials to avoid contamination.
3. Particle shape & flowability: Roller-ring compression grinding produces uniform particles (no flaky/needle-like shapes). Stable airflow prevents agglomeration, ensuring good flow.
4. Clean production: A closed-loop system (cyclone collector with 95% recovery + pulse bag filter) avoids dust contamination and meets environmental standards.
5. Stable operation: A 75kW main motor delivers steady power, with load monitoring to reduce batch variations, ensuring consistent quality.
As Iraq continues to rebuild and expand its infrastructure, the demand for high-quality gypsum powder is set to soar.
