Horizontal Bead Mills

The horizontal bead mill is a widely used equipment for wet grinding of particle materials, designed to operate in a horizontal manner. It primarily consists of a grinding chamber, a grinding shaft, and a dispersion disc. The working principle involves the rotation and friction of grinding media, typically glass beads, ceramic beads, or metal beads, to grind the particle materials to the desired fineness.

• Fineness Range: Horizontal bead mills can achieve finely ground particles, typically ranging from 100 nanometers to several micrometers. This highly controllable grinding process finds extensive applications in the preparation of materials requiring high particle fineness.

• Application Areas: Bead mills are extensively used in industries such as battery materials, industrial ceramics, titanium dioxide production, coatings, inks, pigments, dyes, cosmetics, food, pharmaceuticals, pesticides, MLCC/LTCC , metal ores, non-metallic minerals, and chemical engineering.

• Wet Grinding: In comparison to traditional dry grinding methods, horizontal bead mills use a wet grinding approach, reducing wear and heat accumulation. This helps prevent oxidation and deterioration of particle materials, ensuring the quality of the final product.

• Efficient Dispersion: The high-speed rotation of the grinding shaft and the beads inside the grinding chamber in a horizontal bead mill facilitates effective dispersion and uniform suspension of particles, ensuring the final product’s stability and consistency.

In summary, horizontal bead mills play a crucial role in the wet grinding and dispersion of particle materials. Their highly controllable fineness range and diverse applications make them indispensable key equipment across various industries.
