There are many factors that affect the efficiency of the mixing mill, and the following are some common factors:
1. Abrasive particle size: The smaller the particle size of the abrasive, the larger the surface area, and the larger the surface area in contact with the abrasive. This allows for faster grinding of the abrasive and improves grinding efficiency.
2. Abrasive hardness: The higher the hardness of the abrasive, the higher the grinding efficiency, because abrasives with higher hardness are more difficult to wear away.
3. Grinding groove volume: The larger the grinding groove volume, the more abrasive can be processed simultaneously, thereby improving grinding efficiency.
4. Grinding groove shape: The shape of the grinding groove can also affect the grinding efficiency. For example, if the bottom of the grinding groove is circular, it will cause the abrasive to concentrate in the central area and be less affected by the grinding effect of the abrasive in the edge area. On the contrary, if the bottom of the grinding groove is flat, the abrasive can be evenly distributed throughout the entire grinding groove, thereby improving grinding efficiency.
5. Mixing speed: The faster the mixing speed, the higher the grinding efficiency of the mixing mill, because it can mix the abrasive and medium together faster.
6. Abrasive/medium ratio: The ratio of abrasive to medium also affects grinding efficiency. Excessive media may reduce grinding efficiency as the abrasive may be diluted, and excessive abrasive may also cause the grinding groove to become too crowded, affecting grinding efficiency.
7. Grinding groove material: Grinding groove material also has an impact on grinding efficiency. For example, for harder abrasives, using a higher hardness grinding groove can improve the grinding efficiency of the mixing mill, while for some abrasive materials that are prone to wear, a lower hardness grinding groove is needed to avoid excessive wear of the grinding groove, which affects the grinding efficiency.
