Copper is widely used in industrial production in areas such as electrical and electronic equipment, building materials, transportation, household appliances, etc., due to its excellent electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and corrosion resistance. From the wires in household circuits, the heat exchange components of air conditioners and refrigerators, to the copper pipes in water supply systems and the key components of electric motors in new energy vehicles, copper is present in every corner of life. The high-quality copper powder and copper ore powder required for these copper-processed products need to be prepared through efficient grinding equipment, and the Raymond mill is the core equipment used in the copper processing industry for grinding copper ore, copper sludge and copper slag.
The core role of Raymond Mill in the copper processing industry
The Raymond mill is a classic suspended drum grinding equipment, featuring a compact structure, stable operation and adjustable fineness. It is a key equipment in the raw material preparation stage of the copper industry, and is widely used for grinding and processing materials such as copper ores, copper slimes, and copper residues:
Copper ore grinding: Suitable for copper ores with low to medium hardness (Mohs hardness ≤ 8), it can produce finished powder ranging from 80 to 600 mesh. This is the raw material for copper smelting and further processing of copper powder. Polishing treatment: As the core equipment for the flash smelting and conversion process of copper, it can grind the polished material to 80 to 400 mesh, meeting the requirement of furnace material particle size less than 0.047 millimeters, thereby improving the smelting efficiency of copper.
Utilization of copper slag resources: It can grind industrial waste copper slag into fine powder, which is then used in the production of building materials such as concrete and cement. This not only achieves the recycling and reuse of copper smelting waste but also promotes environmental protection.
The grinding process of Raymond mill is closed and cyclic, with a high powder collection rate and low dust emission. It can achieve continuous and large-scale production, and the produced powder particles are uniform in size, fully meeting the quality requirements of copper processing raw materials for various application scenarios.
Shanghai Cronus Raymond Grinding: Offering Customized Grinding Solutions for Copper-related Materials
Shanghai is a professional enterprise specializing in the research, development, manufacturing and sales of powder processing equipment. Its Raymond Mill series products have been optimized and upgraded based on the characteristics of materials such as copper ores and clinker. They have become the preferred equipment of many copper processing enterprises and possess remarkable performance advantages.
Core product advantages
High efficiency and energy saving, low operating costs: The energy utilization rate is 30% to 40% higher than that of traditional ball mills, and the energy consumption per unit output is significantly reduced. For large-scale grinding of copper ores and clinker, significant electricity cost savings can be achieved annually.
Adjustable fineness, wide application range: The fineness of the finished powder can be flexibly controlled within the range of 80 to 600 mesh. The pass rate of 325 mesh is ≥ 95%, which can meet the grinding requirements of different downstream fields (such as electrical, building materials, transportation, etc.) for copper raw materials. Wear resistance and durability, stable operation: Key components such as grinding rollers and grinding rings are made of high manganese steel and alloy steel, with extremely high hardness (HRC ≥ 60). This effectively solves the problem of rapid equipment wear caused by the hardness of copper-related materials, and the failure rate during long-term operation is extremely low.
Compact structure, small footprint: The vertical layout of the main motor results in a space occupancy that is over 50% smaller than that of a ball mill. It is suitable for the renovation and expansion of copper processing enterprises with limited factory space, shortening the material transportation distance and thereby enhancing production efficiency.
Intelligent control, easy operation, and simple maintenance: The entire production line is equipped with a touchscreen intelligent control system, enabling one-click start and stop, real-time monitoring of equipment status, and automatic fault alarm. The grinding device adopts a multi-level overlapping grinding system.
