A true ball mill is a porcelain jar partly filled with spherical or rounded cylindrical porcelain balls. Industrial versions are made of metal and have porcelain linings.
Unlike the traditional ball mill, the SUMA SLURRY MILL uses small steel balls, driven by a high speed paddle, to achieve the grinding action, producing a slurry, the mean size of which is 6.5 microns, with 97% being below 20 microns. Each SUMA SLURRY MILL can provide up to seven batches of slurry, each of 6 litres, i.e 42 litres per day.
The planetary ball mill used was a Fritsch Pulverisette 5. In order to prevent the contamination, the milling vial and balls were made of WC-10 wt% Co hardmetalmercial WC (purity of 99.8%, average particle size of 6 μm) and Co powder (purity of 99%, average particle size of 1 μm) were used as the raw powder …
The ball mill consists of a closed horizontal metal cylinder, containing the balls at the bottom. The ink slurry is put into the machine to partially fill the cylinder. The cylinder is rotated, and the tumbling of the balls generates frictional forces which break up and disperse the pigment particles.
To assess the effects of the mill operating parameters such as mill speed, ball filling, slurry concentration and slurry filling on grinding process and size distribution of mill product, it was endeavored to build a pilot model with smaller size than the mill. For this aim, a pilot mill with 1m × 0.5m was implemented.
