Design and Working Principle

The grinding system operates on a continuous, automated principle comprising the following stages:

Step 1: Material Feeding

Raw material is fed into the system through a feed hopper (SS304).

A Rotary Airlock Valve (RAL – AL-150) ensures:

• Uniform and controlled feeding
• Air sealing to maintain system pressure balance
• Prevention of backflow

Step 2: Impact Grinding in ACM Rotor

Material enters the grinding chamber where it is subjected to high-speed rotor action.

Grinding occurs due to:

• Impact of hammers/pins
• Shearing forces
• Particle-to-particle collision
• Air turbulence

The rotor creates strong airflow, keeping particles suspended and ensuring efficient size reduction.

Step 3: Air Classification

The ground material enters the dynamic classifier zone.

• Classifier wheel rotates at controlled speed (VFD driven)
• Fine particles pass through and exit with airflow
• Coarse particles are rejected and returned for regrinding

This ensures:

• Narrow particle size distribution
• Minimal oversize
• Consistent product quality

Step 4: Pneumatic Conveying & Cooling

The centrifugal fan generates airflow that:

• Conveys material to downstream system
• Maintains system temperature near ambient
• Enhances classification efficiency

For DCP, this helps:

• Maintain flowability
• Avoid excessive heat build-up
• Ensure stable grinding performance

Step 5: Bag Filter & Product Collection

The air-material mixture enters the bag filter where:

• Powder is separated from air
• Fine particles are collected efficiently (>99%)
• Clean air is exhausted or recirculated

Pulse-jet cleaning ensures continuous operation without choking.

Step 6: Product Discharge

Collected powder is discharged via Rotary Airlock Valve (AL-200) into:

• Storage bins
• Packing systems
• Downstream processing

Model Variants
