15–40 t/h Medium Vertical Coal Mill: A Reliable Choice for Pulverized Coal Preparation
This 15–40 t/h medium vertical coal mill integrates drying, grinding, conveying, and powder classifying functions into one unit, making it an all-in-one grinding solution specifically designed for medium-scale pulverized coal production.
With a production capacity ranging from 15 to 40 tons per hour, the equipment is widely used in cement production lines with clinker outputs of 500–2,500 t/day, limestone and dolomite calcination plants, industrial boilers, metallurgical coal injection systems, and captive power plants. Compared to ball mills, it achieves 25%–30% energy savings. Equipped with wear-resistant grinding rollers and liners, the mill features low maintenance costs, low vibration, and reduced noise levels, enabling stable 24/7 operation.
The HVM vertical mill can process materials with high moisture content (20%–30%, such as calcium carbide slag and lignite) as well as materials with moisture content below 1% (such as cement clinker), demonstrating strong adaptability to material moisture levels.
Solution
For processing high-moisture materials, the drying capacity of the vertical mill is critical. Therefore, the drying performance should be considered a key factor in equipment selection. By conducting a thermal balance calculation of the vertical mill process system, the three core functions—grinding, drying, and classifying—can be scientifically and rationally balanced. Under the premise of ensuring that the material meets the drying requirements, the grinding and classifying efficiencies can be optimized, achieving reliable, efficient, and energy-saving equipment selection.
For processing low-moisture materials, since the vertical mill operates on the principle of bed grinding, excessively low feed material moisture makes it difficult to form a stable material bed on the grinding table, which can lead to abnormal vibration and unstable operation. To ensure stable mill operation, the challenge of stabilizing the material bed must be addressed. Common measures include active methods (such as controlling bed thickness, grinding pressure, weir ring height, and rejected material discharge) and passive methods (such as adding a water spray system). While prioritizing grinding performance, the mill's classifying capability should be reasonably balanced as well.
