Size Reduction Equipment
Grinding mills are applied in a wide range of industries. In gristmills, for instance, grinding mills are used to grind grains like maize. Ball mills are typically used to mill coal in power plants or produce black powders for fireworks. Ceramic and paint material is also crushed in a similar method.

A pilot-scale Loesche VRM was used to determine the power required to grind 100 t/h of the same limestone as used at Kusile (work index of 12 kWh/t) with a top size of 19 mm to a 85% and 95% passing 45 µm product. A significant power saving of 39.2% was observed for the dry VRM compared to the wet ball mill (37.7% for the circuit).
