Dry Ball Mill

Dry Ball Mill

Share

A dry ball mill is a versatile, high-efficiency grinding equipment designed to process dry materials (moisture content ≤5%) into fine powder—critical for industries like mining, cement, chemicals, and building materials.

  • 0.65–90 t/hProcessing capacity

What Is Dry Ball Mill?

A dry ball mill uses mechanical impact and grinding to reduce material size: it rotates a horizontal cylinder filled with grinding media (e.g., high-chromium steel balls, alumina balls) at a controlled speed. As the cylinder rotates, the grinding media lifts and falls due to centrifugal force and gravity, crushing and grinding the dry feed material into fine particles. The finished powder is then discharged through a classifier (built-in or external) to ensure uniform fineness—no water is added during the entire process.

Why Choose Dry Ball Mill?

1.No Liquid Required:​​ Eliminates the need for a drying step post-milling, saving energy and time.

2.Lower Operating Cost:​​ Generally has lower operational costs compared to wet milling, as it avoids costs associated with liquid handling, pumping, and subsequent drying.

3.Product Purity:​​ Ideal for materials that react with water or when the introduction of moisture is undesirable for the final product's quality (e.g., in cement, where gypsum can set).

4.Simpler Setup:​​ The system is often less complex than a wet ball mill circuit, as it doesn't require thickeners, filters, or dryers.

Working principle

The materials are uniformly fed into the first chamber of cementball mill by the feeding device through the feeding hollow shaft. There is a stepped or corrugated liner plate and some steel balls of different specifications in the chamber. The impact force of steel balls falling will have a grinding effect on the material. After the kibbling in the first chamber, the materials will enter the second chamber through the monolayer partition board, which is inlaid with a flat liner plate and contains steel balls to further grind the materials. After that, the powder will be discharged through the discharge device.
