Milling Concerns

Comminution is a fundamental unit operation, where sub-optimal set-up can cause a multitude of operational problems and difficulties in downstream processing. Optimal set-up and real-time monitoring of particle size can lead to significant process gains. Real-time control, improved energy efficiency and enhanced final grade product specification are all goals in optimizing the process. The following concerns apply to both wet and dry unit operations:

High load on the grinding unit impacts throughput
Lengthy start-up and shutdowns due to delays incurred using manual sampling and measurement
Many grades of powder from the same feedstock requiring different process set points
Clients require more precise specification of powders
Labor-intensive manual control of process
Poor batch-to-batch comparability
Tightening the particle size distribution
