In the field of powder engineering, milling technology directly affects particle size distribution, particle morphology, and production efficiency. As of 2025, the Воздушная струйная мельница and the Mechanical Mill remain the two mainstream industrial systems. This article provides a systematic comparison in terms of working principles, energy efficiency, and particle size control.
Equipment Principles Comparison
Working Principle: Compressed air (0.7–1.0 MPa) passes through a Laval nozzle to generate supersonic airflow, causing particles to collide and fracture (typical velocity 300–500 m/s).
Core Advantages:
No mechanical wear (suitable for materials with Mohs hardness ≥9)
Particle size can reach submicron levels (D50: 0.5–10 μm)
Low-temperature milling (outlet temperature <40℃)
Key Performance Indicators Comparison
| Параметр | Воздушная струйная мельница | Mechanical Mill |
| Minimum Размер частиц | 0.1 μm | 1 μm |
| Capacity Range | 0.1–3 t/h | 0.5–50 t/h |
| Specific Surface Area Increase | 300–500% | 100–200% |
| Noise Level | <75 dB | 85–110 dB |
| Maintenance Interval | 2000 h | 500 h |
Application Recommendations
Air Jet Mill is preferred for:
High value-added materials (e.g., lithium battery cathode materials, pharmaceutical APIs)
Heat-sensitive substances (e.g., enzymes, polymers)
Ultrafine powders (D90 <5 μm)
Mechanical Mill is preferred for:
Bulk mineral processing (e.g., карбонат кальция, quartz sand)
Coarse grinding requirements (1 mm–100 μm)
Cost-sensitive projects (equipment investment is 3–5 times lower)
Заключение
Air jet mills and mechanical mills each have their own advantages: For ultrafine, contamination-free, and precisely controlled powders, the air jet mill is the better choice. For cost-efficient large-scale milling, the mechanical mill is more practical.
