Making gains with the OK™ Mill. 1 March 2018. As cement producers continually seek reduced energy consumption and lower maintenance costs, two emerging trends are changing the face of cement production: the use of grinding stations that support variable feed materials and more widespread use of vertical roller mills (VRMs).

According to the display of pulverized coal measured data, it can be saving electricity above 30% use of vertical roller mill production per ton cement clinker than traditional tube mill, and the power saving effect is very remarkable. 3.
Read MoreProgress with Grinding Aids for Vertical Roller Mills. The effect of grinding aids on the comminution of cement is based on the dispersion of fine particles. It is a misunderstanding that grinding aids for vertical roller mills (VRMs) should stabilise the material bed between the rollers and the table by adhesive forces between the particles.
Read MoreCement grinding Vertical roller mills versus ball mills The consumption of grinding aid when grinding OPC in a vertical roller mill is typically in the range from 100 g to 300 g per ton of cement. With respect to the use of grinding aid for grinding of OPC, the ball mill system thus has an advantage compared to the vertical roller mill.
