What is raw mills?

Raw mills are used in the cement production process, the basic operation of raw mills is to mix and grind the raw materials into a homogeneous mixture. The raw materials used in the process include limestone, clay, sand, and iron ore.

The grinding process is done using a ball mill which rotates at a low speed allowing the balls inside the mill to cascade, grind and crush the material. The ground material is then transferred to a separator which separates the fine and coarse particles. The fine material is sent to the preheater while the coarse material is sent back to the mill for further grinding.

Raw mills are an essential component in the cement production process. Their main function is to grind and mix the raw materials to produce a quality product with the correct chemical composition to be used in the production of cement. Raw mills are typically large horizontal rotating cylinders with steel balls or other grinding media inside.

Modern raw mills are designed with advanced technology to optimize the grinding process and increase efficiency, reducing energy consumption and operating costs. Raw mills are also designed with safety features such as explosion-proof designs to ensure a safe working environment for workers.
