Original Abstract

This contribution characterizes the performance of a DESI 11 high‐speed disintegrator working on the principle of a pin mill with two opposite counter‐rotating rotors. As the ground material, batches of Portland cement featuring 6–7 Mohs scale hardness and containing relatively hard and abrasive compounds with the specific surface areas ranging from 200 to 500 m2/kg, with the step of 50 m2/kg, were used. The character of the ground particles was assessed via scanning electron microscopy and measurement of the absolute/relative increase in their specific surface areas. Detailed characterization of the rotors was performed via recording the thermal imprints, evaluating their wear by 3D optical microscopy, and measuring rotor weight loss after the grinding of constant amounts of cement. The results showed that coarse particles are ground by impacting the front faces of the pins, while finer particles are primarily milled via mutual collisions. Therefore, the coarse particles cause higher abrasion and wear on the rotor pins; after the milling of 20 kg of the 200 m2/kg cement sample, the wear of the rotor reached up to 5% of its original mass and the pins were severely damaged.
