Before charging the mill with Zircosil beads, it is strongly recommended to check thoroughly the capacity and volume of the bead mill chamber. To assess the right quantity of Zircosil beads required for the mill, refer to the formula given below.
| For
Closed Vertical type bead mill |
70-80%
volume of the mill x packing density of Zircosil |
| For
Horizontall type bead mill |
75-85%
volume of the mill x packing density of Zircosil |
| For
Open Vertical type bead mill |
60-70%
volume of the mill x packing density of Zircosil |
An
Example:
Considering
beads Ø 1.2 - 1.77 mm and bead charge of 75-85% of volume
of grinding chamber for closed horizontal mill 70-80% of volume
of closed vertical mill and 60-70% of volume of open vertical mill.
Volume
