Applications of beater mills

Rotor mills are used in various fields. A common use is the comminution of materials such as plastics, wood and paper. In the food industry, the equipment is used to grind grain or spices. Rotor mills are also used in the pharmaceutical sector. Here they are used to produce medicines or extract active ingredients.

In the recycling industry, the devices are also indispensable. For example, they can crush old car tires and recycle the rubber. Thanks to their wide range of applications, rotor mills have established themselves as important machines in many industries and help to increase the efficiency of production processes.

How does a rotor mill work?

The operation of a rotor mill is based on the principle of grinding by friction and impact. The mill chamber contains a rotating rotor with knives or hammer beaters at the ends. The material to be crushed is filled into the chamber and caught by the rotor. Due to the high speed of the rotor, the particles are beaten against the housing and thus broken up.

Depending on the desired fineness, the distance between the blades/hammer blows and the housing can be varied. Also, different screens can be used to sort the ground product. Mills are very effective in grinding hard materials such as grains or nuts, as well as producing fine powders from soft materials such as sugar or salt.

Structure of a beater mill

A beater or rotor mill consists of several components that all work together to grind the material to be ground. The core of the mill is a rotating rotor with beater knives or blades that sets the material in motion and presses it against a fixed stator plate. The inlet hopper guides the raw material to the center of the rotor and provides a uniform feed.

The size of the hopper varies depending on the application and can be adjusted. The discharge opening at the bottom of the mill allows the ground material to exit. A screen can also be used here to filter out certain particle sizes.

A motor drives the rotor and thus controls the speed as well as the direction of rotation of the beater knives or blades. A control unit monitors the operation and adjusts parameters such as speed or feed rate if necessary. Depending on the type of material to be ground, additional elements such as cooling or heating units may be integrated, for example to prevent lumping or to produce special properties.

All in all, a rotor mill offers high flexibility for different requirements in the field of grinding solid particles of different sizes up to fine grinding of powders in various industry applications such as food, pharmaceutical, chemical and plastics industries.
