The cement grinding equipment solely consumes about 60% of energy used the entire process of cement manufacturing. Therefore, the recent [cement grinding equipment](https://www.chanderpur.com/grinding-solutions.php) is designed not only to provide a final product of desired fineness but also to operate in energy-efficient manner thereby saving the input cost. Most of the cement grinding equipment available today produces a fine quality of cement. There is a wide range of cement grinding equipment used in various industrial sectors to produce desired outcomes:

**Ball Mill**

This equipment is the simplest and commonly used for cement grinding. It consists of a hollow cylinder filled with stainless steel balls. The material to be crushed is fed into the cylinder and it is then rotated to allow the grinding of the material. Ball mills usually consume high energy up-to 60% for operation and are also loud during operation.

 **High Pressure Grinding Rolls (HPGR)** 
 
The equipment has simple design where the clinker is subject to a pressure as high as 200MPa. The material crushed between the rolls is converted into finer particles. The HPGRs are more energy efficient than the ball mills consuming up-to 50% of total energy in the grinding process.

**Vertical Roller Mills**

Variable designs of a vertical roller mills such as Loesche mill, Polysius double roller mill and Pfeiffer MPS mill are widely used in cement grinding. These designs have a lower energy requirement for operation. The grinders operate using the centrifugal force and the cement produced is finer than a ball mill, however, the water requirement remains the same.

The deciding factors for choosing suitable equipment remain the ease of operation, cost and energy consumption. Also, look out for a well-renowned cement equipment manufacturer to get the best quality equipment that lasts long and produce outcomes as per your requirements.
