Bradley Airswept Mills combine the fine grinding

action of a pendulum roller mill with air stream classifying
and fluid bed drying capabilities to produce precisely sized
particles for a variety of applications.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION COARSE REJECT

TO CLASSIFIER

BACK TO MILL FEED

Our flagship pendulum roller mills are equipped with three
pendulum roll assemblies suspended from a rotating carrier.
As the carrier rotates, centrifugal force causes the roll
assemblies to swing outward against the stationary ring.
Plows direct material from the mill floor to the grinding zone
where it is ground using a combination of attrition and impact.

A continuous air stream carries pulverized material

from the grinding zone up to a separator. Product
sized material is collected while overized particles
are rejected and recycled for further grinding.
The conveying air stream can also be heated AIR

to fluidize and dry material being ground.
