Vertical Stirred Mills
For over 60 years of experience in the mineral processing industry, CITIC Heavy Industries (CITIC HIC) has been always committed to increase the grinding efficiency of minerals by constantly searching for ways to improve and develop energy-saving high-efficiency ore grinding equipment. CSM series vertical stirred mill was jointly developed by a combined R&D team of foreign and domestic experts. With independent intellectual property right, this vertical stirred mill is an ideal wet grinding solution for global customers who are looking for safe, reliable and energy efficient stirred milling machines.
Vertical stirred mills are a fine grinding equipment that covers advantages of low rotation speed, high reliability and long life cycle. The significant advantages that the vertical stirred mills have over the ball mills are smaller size, less auxiliary equipment required, more simple system and more options of processing methods. Powder flow behaves continuously in the stirred mill, and it can be operated in both open- and closed-circuit operation.
Vertical stirred mills are also characterized by low noise, vibration and heat that are generated. The grinding media moves orderly in the vertically stirred media mill thereby resulting in more efficiency on grinding performance and much less power consumption. Since it is operated with wet grinding method, the vertical stirred mill does not require any cooling system due to the low speed operation.
In addition, vertical stirred mill features a small footprint without any external rotating parts. The helical agitator achieves the force balance, enabling the foundation to bear only the combined forces of mill, slurry and grinding media. This simple foundation contributes in a short installation period.
