Bentonite Powder Processing? Definitely Choose the Raymond Mill
Bentonite is a common non-flammable and non-explosive material with low mining costs and abundant resources. So, which grinding equipment is better for processing bentonite? Through continuous practical proof, the Raymond Mill is undoubtedly the better choice. Why is that? Please see the detailed analysis below for the specific reasons.
1. What are the advantages of using a Raymond Mill for bentonite grinding?
The fineness of bentonite processed by a Raymond Mill can be easily adjusted to around 400 mesh. This facilitates the production of high-quality, fine powders, offering simple operation that meets production requirements while reducing investment costs.
The screening rate of the Raymond Mill is several times higher than that of other grinding equipment, reaching up to 99.9%. This enhances the fineness of the bentonite powder, reduces material waste, and increases output.
2. How is the air classification effect of the Raymond Mill for bentonite grinding?
After grinding, the bentonite is subjected to air classification by the blower, which blows air into the main housing, lifting the powder. The analyzer above the grinding chamber then performs classification. Oversized bentonite particles fall back into the grinding chamber for regrinding. Particles that meet the required fineness are carried by the air stream into the cyclone collector. After collection, they are discharged from the outlet as the final product. The air stream returns to the blower through the air return pipe at the top of the large cyclone collector, forming a cyclic air path that operates under negative pressure. Excess air from the increased air volume in the cycle is discharged through the exhaust pipe between the blower and the main unit, entering a small cyclone collector for purification. This ensures reduced environmental pollution during the grinding of bentonite, meeting both enterprise production requirements and environmental protection needs.
3. Is the cost of using a Raymond Mill for bentonite grinding high?
Whether the cost of using a Raymond Mill for bentonite grinding is high depends mainly on the production costs of different Raymond Mill manufacturers. Furthermore, varying regions have different consumption levels—some high, some low—which naturally leads to inconsistent manufacturing costs. Compared to economically developed regions, areas with faster economic development have higher costs for both raw materials and labor. Consequently, the production input cost for Raymond Mills will increase, leading to higher prices for customers. Of course, in regions with relatively lower consumption levels and lower commodity prices, the production cost of Raymond Mills is naturally lower.
