High Shear

Mill
Definition:

A equipment used for

grinding. High shear mills the
type of attrition mill in which
two surface rotate past each
other at high speed with close
tolerances.
It
works
on
Mechanism of compression and
shear force.

Working principle:

Industrial
Applications:

Its used in agriculture

applications, where they

are used for milling corn
and grains after harvest
Manufacture of Peanut
butter.
Food and Chemical
processing
Mining operations to
separate minerals and
other valuable
elements from the
surrounding rock.
Recycling Plants for
grinding papers, plastics
and other reusable
materials.

In High shear mill feed is

entered from sides through
hopper and material size is
reduced first by compression
and
then by shear force and
then product is obtained on
other sides. A screen is used
which gives the uniform size.
High shear mill have two
roughened quality cast iron
plates .One plate is stationary
Diagram:
and other one rotates, Grain
Feed between the plates is
crushed and sheared. Type and
spacing of plates determines
fineness of the feed. These mills
are better adapted to finess
Submitted
by:
grains. However, they will not
handle high moisture grain
