The production capacity of grinding mill is the prime concern question for user.
Generally speaking, the production capacity refers to grinding capacity and drying capacity of grinding mill. The material
grindability will affect the grinding capacity, the roller pressure and the type of grinding mill. The production capacity and
the pressure area of raw material are relevant to the size of roller. The raw material quantity that be grinded by roller is in
direct proportion to the length of roller B, the thickness of  the bed of material H  and  the line speed of grinding pan V.
The width of roller B and the thickness of the bed of material H are directly proportional with the diameter of roller D within
limits. And, the line speed V and D0.5 are directly proportional, so we can come to a conclusion a formula of grinding
capacity:
G=K1D2.5 (G refers to the grinding capacity of roller mill,T/H, D refers to the 他 the diameter M, K1 is coefficient, which is
relevant to the typer of roller mill, the selected and used pressure, the performance of grinded material. Different
specification of roller mill, so the K1 is different.  (The specifications of the roller mills are different, so is the K1)
Usually, the K1 of LM series roller mill is 9.6, D is the outside diameter of grinding pan, and the K1 of MPS type roller mill
is selected 6.6, D is selected the medium diameter.  So the diameter of grinding pan is 3.8m according to the production
capacity per hour as request. 
Here, : G=9.6×3.82.5=270.2 t/h, the production capacity per hour can meet the demand. The production capacity of
grinding mill is formulated 265TPH which is in a safe range and conservative.
2.1.2 Drying Capacity: Gd=KdD2.5
Gd refers to the drying capacity of roller mill T/H
D refers to the diameter of grinding pan
Kd is coefficient, which is relevant to the moisture of raw material, the hot blast rate and the hot blaste temperature.
Reference: TRM roller mill is Kd=10
So Gd=10×3.82.5=281.5t/h.
