MB Rod Mill

1.Rod mill has two types: Dry and Wet. Users could choose the suitable one depending on the actual needs. Our company adopts advanced controllable feeding and discharging technology and combines the suitable grinding body according to the actual milling materials. It changes the traditional surface contact into line contact. Then it produces more even output granularity and higher productivity. It is widely used in industries of high evenness requirement such as refractory material, chemical industry, metallurgy, glass, etc. In recent years, it is also used in building and sand making industry.

2.The preparation of ball or pebble mill feed is an important application for rod mills. These mills produce a uniform-sized product while minimizing the production of tramp oversize and unwanted fines.

The rod mills accept a feed size up to 2" and produce a typical product size of 5 to 10 mesh when operating in open circuit and as fine as 35 mesh in closed circuit with a screen or other sizing device.

Applications
The rod mill, a tumbling mill characterized by the use of rods as grinding media, is used for grinding ores, coal/coke, and other materials for both wet and dry applications. The rod mill performs best when making products having a top size of 4 mesh to 16 mesh operating in open circuit, or as fine as 35 mesh operating in closed circuit with a screen or other sizing device. The rod mill accepts feed ore as coarse as 1 1/2” top size although better performance is obtained by restricting ore feed size to 3/4”.

Materials too wet for fine crushing and dry screening may be wet ground in a rod mill. Practice has demonstrated the ability of a rod mill to dry grind damp materials that will pack or plug other grinding equipment. And scrap loss are reduced by correct selection of liners for the specific grinding duty. Additional benefit results from use of a backing material, such as rubber between the liners and the mill shell.
