Contra Selector Mill Type PPS & PPSR

 

Gentle pulverizing of dry or moist, soft to medium hard materials. Cool grinding at high throughput capacities with narrow particle size distribution.

Method of Operation

Material must be metered into the machine. Inside the grinding chamber an impeller accelerates the material and throws it against a rotating screen basket. Due to high impact and sheering forces created by the differential speed between impeller and screen basket the material is reduced in size.

The main feature of the Contra Selector Mill is the rotating screen basket. When rotating, centrifugal forces keep the screen free from clogging. Due to the rotation the total screen area is engaged in the grinding process.

Particle size of the end product can be adjusted in a very wide range by changing the speeds of the impeller and screen basket, by the screen size and the number and shape of grinding elements installed.

A rotating scraper keeps the inside of the machine housing free from any sticking material. For special applications the machine housing can be water-cooled or steam jacketed.
