In the glass manufacturing industry, quartz grinding plays a pivotal role in determining product quality. Achieving consistent particle size distribution with high purity is critical for optical clarity and mechanical strength. This article explores advanced grinding technologies and presents optimized solutions for quartz processing.
| Parameter | Standard Value | Tolerance |
|---|---|---|
| D50 Particle Size | 8-12μm | ±1μm |
| Fe₂O₃ Content | <0.01% | +0.002% |
| Moisture | <0.5% | +0.1% |
Quartz’s high hardness (Mohs 7) and abrasiveness demand specialized milling equipment. Traditional ball mills often cause iron contamination and inconsistent fineness, while jet mills struggle with energy efficiency.
Our SCM Ultrafine Mill series achieves breakthrough performance with:
| Model | Capacity (t/h) | Power (kW) | D97 Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| SCM800 | 0.5-4.5 | 75 | 5-45μm |
| SCM1680 | 5.0-25 | 315 | 5-45μm |
For large-scale operations, the MTW Series Trapezium Mill offers:
Pre-drying quartz to <1% moisture prevents agglomeration and improves classification efficiency. Our mills integrate hot air systems with temperature control ±5°C.
Three essential measures:
A leading glass manufacturer achieved:
Modern grinding systems like our SCM and MTW series deliver the precision and efficiency required for premium glass manufacturing. With proper system design and process controls, quartz grinding can become a competitive advantage rather than a production bottleneck.
