rod mill/ rod grinding mill

Brief Introduction to Rod Mill

Rod mill has wide application and its performance has reached international advanced level. It is the most efficient and reliable stone crushing machine at present and is one of the widely used sand making machines in the sand and stone industry. It is mainly used for the processing and crushing of raw materials such as feldspar, quartz and minerals ore and also for making abrasive materials and for the fine crushing and medium crushing of refractory, cement, steel grit, slag powder, copper ore, iron ore, gold ore sand, concrete aggregate and pitch aggregate. It can make sand with high efficiency and low energy consumption and is the most advanced sand making equipment in the world.

Performance Features of Rod Mill

In the ore grinding process, the grinding media contact the ores in a linear state, so that it has the function of selective grinding. The product granularity is even and the content of over-crushing particles is low. When used for coarse grinding, the processing capacity of rod mill is much higher than that of ball mill with the same specification.

Working Principle of Rod Mill

The electro motor drives the cylinder to rotate through the reduction gears and the peripheral rack wheel reducer transmission, or the low speed synchronous motor directly drives the cylinder to rotate through the peripheral rack wheel reducer transmission. Inside the cylinder, there are proper ore grinding media-steel rod. Under the eccentric force and frictional force, the ore grinding media are lifted to a certain height and fall down in the state of dropping. The materials to be ground continuously go into the cylinder from the ore feeding mouth and are crushed by the moving grinding media, and then are discharged by the overflow and the force of continuous feeding to go to the next procedure.
