The grinding process usually takesplace in ball or tube mills which,due to their simple principle, arewidespread throughout the worldand require only low maintenanceefforts.The rotary movement of the mill<strong>shell</strong> causes the grinding media(cast steel balls) to rise, fall or rollonto the material to be groundwith high impact or pressureenergy and thus performs thecomminution.
Lining systemsfor tube millsTube or ball mills are horizontal<strong>shell</strong>s in which charged balls ofvarying sizes “smash“ the materialpassing through by im pactenergy.The mill <strong>shell</strong> is fitted with aninner <strong>lining</strong> to protect the millcylinder: A <strong>lining</strong> consisting ofhigh ly wear resistant sectionalplates serves as protection againstwear. Besides the protection ofthe mill tube, the <strong>lining</strong> also hasthe task of improving the liftingand flow of the balls due to theparticular shape of the individualplates. Different heights andthe layout of the individual wearplates ensure the correct distributionof the trail of balls and reducethe relative movement betweenthe balls and the <strong>lining</strong>.<strong>Mill</strong> <strong>shell</strong> <strong>lining</strong>in the first chamber<strong>Mill</strong> <strong>shell</strong> <strong>lining</strong>in the second chamberNEU UND ABGEFLACHTLining types

The shape of the lifteris retained throughout its servicelife; therefore the grindingefficiency remains consistentduring the entire runnig time.
Fastening systemsAs a specialist in <strong>lining</strong>s for ballmills, <strong>Christian</strong> <strong>Pfeiffer</strong> can offerany fastening system required.All li nings are tailor made to therequirements of your mill.The fastening systems describedbelow are standard:A bolted faste ning requires adrill hole in the mill cylinderfor each plate. The systemis easy to operate and can beinstalled without the assistanceof <strong>Christian</strong> <strong>Pfeiffer</strong> specialists.With a semi-bolted fasteningoption, at least two rows ofplates are bolted. Specialtools are needed forinstallation; in this case it isrecommend ed to have<strong>Christian</strong> <strong>Pfeiffer</strong> staff on siteto supervise the installationof the system.Fastening systems
Secure data forinvestment decisions<strong>Christian</strong> <strong>Pfeiffer</strong> will alwaysprovide you with secure outputdata for your investment decisionssince we determine all necessaryparameters for the successfuloperation of your grinding systemin semi-industrial tests.In addition, our Research andDevelopment team applies itself tothe new and further improvementof machines, components andprocedures. The extent of ourexperts’ success in this field hasalready often been proven overthe past few dec ades, and theresults of their efforts have oftenbecome milestones in the developmentof modern grinding systems.To meet the requirements ofour internatio nal customers,our quality assurance systemhas been certified since 1994.Stages Innovation of productionand R&D
Successful start afteroverhaul of millWhen the new <strong>lining</strong> system hasbeen installed, the mill must beopti mised. Optimisation is carriedout step-by-step in accordancewith the recommendations of ourspecialists. The mill is first chargedwith 80 % of the calculated grindingmedia and continually operatedwith material. To examine thegrinding progress, the mill is subjectedto an emergency shutdownand material samples are takenfrom along the mill axis. A grindingdiagram can now be created on thebasis of the particle size distributionanalysis. The mill is then filledwith grinding media up to theoptimum operating charge for thenormal operation of the mill. Foroptimisation it is also necessary toconsider the influencing parametersof the entire grinding system.Systematic evaluations and manyyears of practical experience onthe part of our engineers guaranteethat every mill can be adjustedto meet your requirements.Particle size distribution by fractionsDistribution of particle size by fractionsReplacement and service
