Powder metallurgy – basics & applications
The ball to charge ratio may be 5:1, 10:1, 15:1. This method is more efficient in achieving fine particle size. Rod mills: Horizontal rods are used instead of balls to grind. Granularity of the discharge material is 40-10 mm. The mill speed varies from 12 to 30 rpm. Planetary mill: High energy mill widely used for producing metal, alloy, and ...
