Rotor impact mills can recirculate oversize particles and achieve finished products in the range of 95–99% less than 100 mesh (0.15 mm) with a mean particle diameter between 40 and 75 µm . Additional power is required for the built-in turbine classifier which increases the grinding cost.

The production modeling as a function of the mill power and the ages of the liners indicated that excess power is being applied. It is possible to increase the production in TpH by reducing the mill's rotational speed, regardless of the age of the liners. The application of this strategy implies an increase of 0.76% in production and a ...
