The milling equipment being used in the manufacture of paints and inks is always purchased for the production of specific products. Frequently, with the passage of time, these products change formulations, raw materials (pigments), etc. The effectiveness of the grinding machines may vary after some change and it is at this moment when it is necessary to adapt the type of beads to be used. Let’s see what grinding elements we use in O+B mills and compare their performance with each other.<\/p>\n

GRINDING ELEMENTS IN THE O+B MILLS<\/b><\/h2>\n

Com\u00fanmente llamadas microesferas, sus caracter\u00edsticas f\u00edsicas determinan la efectividad de cualquier proceso de molienda.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Los tipos de microesferas utilizados habitualmente son los siguientes:<\/span><\/p>\n

Commonly called microspheres, their physical characteristics determine the effectiveness of any grinding process.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The types of microspheres commonly used are as follows:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Glass<\/li>\n
  2. Zirconium silicate, also called Zirconium silicate<\/li>\n
  3. Yttrium-stabilized zirconium oxide, commonly called Yttria<\/li>\n
  4. Tungsten carbide, also called tungsten carbidez<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
