ith many grinding mills—including roller mills, rotor
mills, hammer mills, air-classifier mills, and fluidized-bed
opposed-jet mills—successfully achieving the desired
production throughput depends on help from a vacuum
pneumatic conveying system. The system not only helps
draw the material through the mill, but in some cases
assists the mill in achieving the final product's desired
particle size.
A well-designed vacuum pneumatic conveying system is essen-
tial to achieving top performance in many bulk solids grinding
operations. This article explains how you can select a vacuum
pneumatic conveying system to assist the operation of a ham-
mer mill or fluidized-bed opposed-jet mill.
