Proven mill technology for ambitious tasks
The design of the ready2grind system is based on the Pfeiffer vertical roller mill technology approved across the globe and on the decade-long experience in developing innovative mill technologies. The Pfeiffer vertical roller mill at the core of the ready2grind solution guarantees the highest level of operational reliability
Grinding on the ready2grind system
The ready2grind system is extraordinarily compact. The modules in standard container sizes are delivered preassembled. The grinding process is the same as that of bigger Pfeiffer grinding plants. The above flow sheet shows the process of cement grinding as an example. Clinker and additives are ground, dried, and classified in the Pfeiffer vertical mill. Product quality and fineness can be set within wide limits (up to 6,000 cm2/g Blaine). The ground and dried product is separated from the process gas in a filter for entire dust collection which is followed by a fan. Downstream of the fan, the volume flow is divided: part of it is returned to the mill while the remainder is evacuated through the exhaust gas chimney.
