Vertical Hammer Mill

HIGH SPEED FOR ULTRA-FINE GRINDING

The vertical mill is a very compact machine designed to take up less space and offer the user a high level of production capacity with reduced energy consumption.
The advantages of using the vertical mill in production, as opposed to the horizontal shaft version, are as follows: reduced electricity consumption: when compared to horizontal hammer mills with the same capacity, energy consumption is on average 25% lower.

LaMeccanica vertical mills are available in three versions and the benefits of using one are 

• Limited airflow: it is not necessary to have a specific suction line for the mill in the grinding chamber. This results in
  significant energy savings and limited product moisture loss during the grinding stage.
• Easy to replace screens and hammers: parts subject to wear (hammers and screen) are hooked to make their
  replacement really easy.
• Easy to clean and inspect the grinding chamber

Key Advantages

The impeller features high mechanical reliability thanks to two supports with independent bearings.
The motor and impeller are connected with a flexible coupling.
High safety standards: bearing temperature is monitored by PT 100 sensors and a vibration detection system may be installed (optional).
Quieter than the horizontal mill
Construction in compliance with ATEX 22 standards.
