What is the difference between a Raymond mill and a ball mill?

Comparison between Raymond mill and vertical mill, and the difference between Raymond mill and ball mill mainly lies in the power consumption.

1. Comparison of power consumption

Depending on the grindability of raw materials and product particle size, ball mills consume 3 to 4 times more energy than Raymond mills. Ball mills also consume about 30% more energy than vertical mills, but the fine powders of Raymond mills and vertical mills The content is lower than that of ball mill.

2. Cost comparison

The initial construction cost, operating cost and maintenance cost of a Raymond mill are about 40% of that of a ball mill and 30~40% of that of a vertical mill.

3. In terms of grinding materials

Ball mills and vertical mills must be equipped with drying equipment to grind materials with humidity below 10%, while Raymond mills can directly grind such materials without the need for drying equipment, so it also saves a lot of costs in supporting equipment.

4. Production comparison

If different values are used, the output of Raymond mill can be the same as that of vertical mill and ball mill.

5. Grinding efficiency comparison

Vertical mills and Raymond mills use new technology grinding roller devices to grind materials, and their bodies are all vertical structures. The ball mill uses ball collision and friction, so the grinding efficiency of the ball mill is low.
