How to Test the Production Capacity of a Micro Powder Grinding Mill

Testing the production capacity of a micro powder grinding mill is crucial for ensuring optimal performance and efficiency in industrial applications. This article provides a comprehensive guide on evaluating key parameters, methodologies, and best practices for accurate capacity assessment.

Key Testing Parameters

1. Feed Material Characteristics

• Moisture content (should be <15% for most mills)
• Hardness (Mohs scale measurement)
• Input size distribution (typically ≤20mm for ultrafine mills)

2. Operational Parameters

Recommended Testing Procedure

Phase 1: Baseline Establishment

1. Conduct 3 test runs with standard reference material
2. Record power consumption per ton output
3. Establish D50/D97 particle size distribution curve

Phase 2: Capacity Verification

For optimal results, we recommend using our SCM Ultrafine Mill series which features:

• Precision vertical turbine classifier (adjustable 325-2500 mesh)
• Automatic pressure regulation system
• Energy consumption monitoring interface

Data Analysis Methods

1. Production Rate Calculation

Formula: Q = (W × 3600)/(T × ρ)

Where:
Q = Production capacity (kg/h)
W = Sample weight (kg)
T = Collection time (s)
ρ = Material bulk density (kg/m³)

2. Energy Efficiency Evaluation

For comprehensive analysis, our MTW Series Trapezium Mill provides:

• Integrated power monitoring system
• Real-time kWh/ton display
• Comparative data storage for 10 materials

Troubleshooting Common Issues

Accurate capacity testing requires systematic methodology and proper equipment selection. Our SCM and MTW series mills incorporate advanced monitoring features that simplify this process while delivering industry-leading performance in the 0.5-45 ton/h range with D97 control from 5-325μm.
