Impact mill efficient comminution in laboratory and industry

How does an impact mill work?

A percussion, propeller or hammer mill is a special laboratory mill that is important in many fields due to its remarkable functioning. Unlike the disc, cone or roller mill, the propeller mill is equipped with a rapidly rotating striking blade inside.

The impact and bouncing action of the knives makes it possible to grind rough or coarse powder from various solid materials. The ground material is transferred by the rotating beater blades and finally collected in the collecting device at the bottom.

For what purposes is a beater mill suitable?

Beater mills are used for the coarse comminution of a wide variety of materials. Among other things, they can be used to crush or homogenise highly heterogeneous mixtures of materials. The substance generated in this way can be used as a preliminary stage for further separation of types or materials. Impact mills are used in the following sectors or industries:

• in the plastics processing industry, when plastics and soft metals have to be comminuted to such an extent that they can then be separated according to their specific weight using high-performance separating equipment.
• In laboratories that test and analyse pharmaceuticals, for example.
• in laboratories of the pharmaceutical industry for the production of medicines and ointments
• in electrical and electronic scrap processing
• grain and feed mills, e.g. in the food industry andfor researchpurposes
• in the construction industry, e.g. for crushing wood waste and for further processing into pellets etc.
• in coal-fired power plants for crushing lime and coal
• in mining and metallurgy for grinding gypsum rock, minerals, salts, ores, etc.
