Turbo Mill

Turbo Mill for Plastic & Rubber

Areas of Application:

The Turbo mill, type REF is used in recycling operations for the production of secondary raw material. The turbo mills are impact mills for medium fine to finest grinding and fine fiberizing of PVC, rubber waste, plastic waste, wood flour, chips, textiles, board and paper waste.

Method of Operation:

 Material entering through the feed chute is thrown by an impeller rotating at high speed against the grinding liners of a chamber formed by two opposing cones. The liners are divided into replaceable segments. There are three principles of reduction employed in asingle action ( Turbo, Impact, Shear ). The impeller and a fan located behind the impeller on same shaft create a high velocity air stream. The air suction created in the collecting chamber located behind the grinding chamber draws the ground particles through an annular gap between the two chabers. Particle fineness is controlled by inserting confining rings of different sizes in the annular gap. The fineness of the material is determined by how long it remains in the grinding chamber before it is removed by the air suction.

 Design:

 Turbo mills are built for tough around-the-clock operation. Heavy thick walled machine housings in cast iron or steel fabricated design and a generously dimensioned bearing and drive arrangement guarantee smooth operation and a long service life. The bearing and drive system is flanged to the machine housing and can be easily exchanged as a compact premounted unit. The bearings are specially sealed to prevent dust penetration. The rotor is carefully stress relieved and electro dynamically balanced for smooth vibration-free operation. The grinding chamber is easily accessible through a large front door. As a standard a safety door locking allows only access to the grinding chamber at stand still of the rotor.
