Cement grinding Vertical roller mills VS ball mills
Vertical roller mills and ball mills represent two clearly distinct technologies. However, with proper adjustments to the operational parameters of the vertical roller mill almost identical cement properties can be achieved by the two mills that satisfy the cement user's demands.Nevertheless, the two types of mills have their distinctive merits.
Cement grinding optimisation

For raw material grinding a quadropol® vertical roller mills QMR² 45/23 was contracted to serve the kiln line, while for cement grinding two identical QMC² 45/23 were considered for grinding different cement types. The request for interchangeable parts for the three mills was fulfilled and represents still a holistic approach.
Ball mill for cement grinding
It protects the shell while ensuring optimum lifting of the mill charge. In the second compartment (and also in our one-compartment cement mills) we use a corrugated lining designed to obtain the maximum power absorption and grinding efficiency. For special applications, we can supply a classifying shell lining for fine grinding in the mill.
