used rod mill

Used Rod Mill introduction

at present, rod mill is the most effective crushing machine and its performance has achieved the international standard. it is widely applied in the gravel industry. and it is mainly used for processing or crushing the feldspar, quartz, minerals and other raw materials, and it is also suitable for finely or secondarily crushing the various tough or brittle materials, such as grinding material, refractory material, cement, steel shot, pulverized slag, copper ore, iron ore, gold ore, concrete aggregate, bituminized aggregate. now it is a most advanced high-efficient low consumption sand-maker in the world.

rod mills are very similar to ball mills, except they use long rods for grinding media. the rods grind the ore by tumbling within the the mill. to prevent the conditions leading to rod charge tangling, the length to diameter ratio is maintained at 1.4 to 1.6. rod mills accept feed up to about 50 mm (2 in.) and produce a product in the size range of 3000 to 270 mm (4 to 35 mesh).
rod mill is widely applied in metal and nonmetal mine, water conservancy, glass and construction materials industries, mainly suitable for grinding various ores and rocks and artificial sand-making.

used rod mill working principle

depending on the reduction box and the reduction of the peripheral big gear wheel, the motor rotary drives the cylinder rotating or the motor drives the cylinder rotating directly by the peripheral big gear wheel. and inside the cylinder, there’s an appropriately grinding medium-steel bar .the steel bar will drop after reaching a certain height with friction and the centrifugal force. and the material will be hit and grinded to achieve the purpose of making sand.

used rod mill features

1. higher capability and more even discharging size. adopted advanced technology of sand maker-rod mill by controlling the input or output materials; related to the user’s actual grinding materials, choosing an appropriate grinding medium, replaced the traditional surface contact to the linear contact . therefore, its discharging size is more even, the capability is higher, suitable for various hardness of ore.( moths hardness 5.5-12).
2. adjustable fineness of lizenithne. through simple adjustment, will change the discharging size ,and inside , has finesse control device and screening device, ensuring not over grinding and avoiding the unqualified product interfusing into end products.
3. easy and safe operation.
4. stable performance.
5. even product size.
6. low energy consumption.
7. low invest,high return.

used rod mill note

of the three main types of rod mill, overflow, end peripheral discharge, and center peripheral discharge only the overflow mill is in common usage. wet grinding rod mills are normally used in the mineral processing industry. dry grinding is used in some areas; however, it is confronted with problems and should be avoided except where absolutely necessary. rod mills operate at lower speed than ball mills since the rods are rolled and not cascaded. for an equivalent grind, a rod mill uses less steel than a Ball Mill because of the lower speed and better contact between the media and ore. the rod charge must be maintained in good working condition, and broken and worn rods must be removed. rod mills usually require greater operator attention. it is important that the rods stay essentially parallel to one another. if rods become misaligned, grinding action is lost and, more importantly, rod tangles occur. maximum rod length is limited to about 6.1 m (20 ft). this in turn limits the length, diameter, and capacity of rod mills. the heavier rods acting upon the lifters and liners result in greater wear on the mill liners.

according to the actual situation, the user can choose the dry or wet method of the sand maker-rod mill. as to the materials which contain the ferrum, like quartz sand, dolomite and monazite, the user can add a magnetic separator to finish the processing of de-ironing.
