Bead mill (bead mill) is a device for fine pulverizing, dispersing and mixing materials. It mainly grinds and disperses materials through the high-energy collision and friction of beads (usually pellets made of ceramic, glass or metal). Bead mill is widely used in chemical industry, paint, ink, pigment, nanomaterials, electronic materials and medicine and other fields.

The working principle of Bead mill

The bead mill achieves refinement and dispersion by placing the material and the grinding medium (such as the grinding bead) together in the grinding chamber, and by mechanical movement, the grinding medium and the material are collided and rubbed at high speed. The grinding medium (beads) will move at high speed while the machine is running, repeatedly colliding with the material and gradually grinding the material to the desired particle size.

The main applications of Bead mill

Pigments and coatings industry: Bead mills are used to fine pigments and coatings so that their particles are dispersed evenly, thereby improving color performance and coverage.

Ink manufacturing: In the ink industry, bead mills are used to fine grind the particles in the ink, so that the ink has better flow and spray effect.

Cosmetics: Bead mills are used to grind cosmetics raw materials to extremely fine particles, thereby improving the touch and absorption of the product.

Pharmaceutical industry: In drug development, bead mills are used to prepare nanomedicine and microparticle drugs to make them more easily absorbed by the body.

Ceramic materials: The bead mill is also used in the ceramic industry to grind ceramic powder to make its particles more uniform and improve the quality of the subsequent process.

Advantages of Bead mill

Efficient grinding: Due to the frequent contact between the grinding bead and the material, it can achieve efficient crushing and dispersion effect, especially suitable for ultra-fine grinding.

Controllable particle size: By controlling the size of the grinding bead, the ratio of materials, speed and grinding time, the particle size of the discharge can be flexibly adjusted to meet different process requirements.

Wide range of applications: can be used to handle a variety of different viscosity materials, from low viscosity liquids to high viscosity slurry.

Types of Bead mill

According to the different design and use, the bead mill is mainly divided into the following types:

Horizontal bead mill: common type, suitable for handling large quantities of materials, simple structure and high grinding efficiency.

Vertical bead mill: the material flow speed is relatively slow, suitable for some special material grinding requirements.

Basket bead mill: suitable for small batch materials, grinding process through the basket design to separate the material and grinding beads.

Overall, bead mill is a very efficient fine grinding and dispersion device suitable for fine particle processing in a variety of industrial fields.
