How to Calculate Plastic Pulverizer Capacity for Your Factory

Choosing the correct plastic pulverizer capacity is one of the most important decisions when planning a plastic powder production project.

A machine that is too small can become a permanent production bottleneck.

A machine that is too large may increase:

• Initial investment

• Electricity consumption

• Floor-space requirements

• Auxiliary equipment costs

• Spare-part costs

Many buyers make the mistake of asking:

“What is the capacity of your 500mm pulverizer?”

But the better question is:

“What pulverizer capacity do I need to produce my required amount of qualified powder from my material at my required mesh size?”

Plastic pulverizer capacity is not determined by grinding disc diameter alone.

Actual output depends on:

• Plastic material

• Input size

• Required mesh

• Grinding disc diameter

• Motor power

• Feed rate

• Cooling efficiency

• Grinding tool condition

• Screening efficiency

• Operating hours

• Percentage of qualified powder

This guide explains how to calculate plastic pulverizer capacity correctly and how to select the right machine for PVC, PE, PP, rotomolding, masterbatch, recycling, and engineering plastic applications.

How Do You Calculate Plastic Pulverizer Capacity?

The simplest starting formula is:

Required Pulverizer Capacity (kg/h) = Required Daily Powder Output (kg/day) ÷ Effective Production Hours per Day

For example:

Your factory needs:

4,000 kg of finished powder per day

and the pulverizer effectively produces for:

10 hours per day

Then:

4,000 ÷ 10 = 400 kg/h

Your minimum real production requirement is therefore:

400 kg/h of qualified powder

However, you should normally add a safety margin.

If you use a 20% capacity margin:

400 × 1.20 = 480 kg/h

A machine capable of producing approximately 480–500 kg/h of qualified powder under your actual material and mesh conditions would therefore be a more appropriate choice.

Why Rated Pulverizer Capacity and Actual Capacity Are Different

A supplier may advertise a machine as:

500 kg/h

But this number does not mean the machine will produce 500 kg/h under every condition.

A pulverizer may produce different output when processing:

• Rigid PVC at 30 mesh

• LLDPE at 35 mesh

• PP at 60 mesh

• High-CaCO3 SPC flooring scrap

• EVA at fine powder specifications

The same machine can therefore have several different practical capacities.

That is why a professional capacity quotation should always include:

Material + Feed Size + Required Mesh + Qualified Powder Output

instead of simply:

Machine Model + Maximum kg/h

What Does Plastic Pulverizer Capacity Mean?

Plastic pulverizer capacity is usually expressed as:

kg/h = kilograms per hour

or:

t/h = tons per hour

For example:

A pulverizer rated at:

400 kg/h

theoretically processes:

0.4 ton/hour

If it operates for 10 effective hours:

400 × 10 = 4,000 kg/day

or:

4 tons/day

But this calculation assumes the machine maintains its rated output throughout the effective production period.

In real factories, actual daily output may be lower because of:

• Startup

• Machine cleaning

• Blade adjustment

• Material changes

• Maintenance

• Screen cleaning

• Operator breaks

• Raw material interruptions

Therefore, effective production hours are more useful than scheduled working hours.

Scheduled Hours vs Effective Production Hours

Suppose your factory operates:

12 hours per day

That does not necessarily mean the pulverizer produces continuously for 12 hours.

You may lose:

• 30 minutes for startup

• 30 minutes for cleaning

• 30 minutes for material handling

• 30 minutes for minor adjustments

Effective production time:

12 − 2 = 10 hours

If your daily target is:

5,000 kg

then your required hourly output is:

5,000 ÷ 10 = 500 kg/h

If you incorrectly calculate based on 12 hours:

5,000 ÷ 12 = 417 kg/h

you may select a machine that is too small.

Step-by-Step: How to Calculate the Right Pulverizer Capacity

Use the following process before choosing a machine.

Step 1: Calculate Your Daily Powder Requirement

First determine how much finished powder your factory actually needs.

For example:

Small Production Plant

Required powder:

2 tons/day

Medium Production Plant

Required powder:

5 tons/day

Large Production Plant

Required powder:

10 tons/day

Do not calculate only from your current demand.

If production is expected to grow significantly during the next two or three years, include reasonable future capacity.

Step 2: Determine Effective Operating Hours

Your production schedule may be:

• 8 hours/day

• 12 hours/day

• 16 hours/day

• 24 hours/day

But effective production time is normally lower.

For planning purposes, calculate realistic uptime rather than assuming 100% utilization.

For example:

Scheduled operation:

16 hours/day

Expected effective utilization:

85%

Effective production:

16 × 85% = 13.6 hours/day

If the factory needs:

6 tons/day

Required hourly capacity:

6,000 ÷ 13.6 = 441 kg/h

Step 3: Add a Capacity Safety Margin

It is rarely advisable to select a machine that must operate continuously at 100% of its theoretical maximum output.

A capacity margin allows for:

• Material variation

• Blade wear

• Higher ambient temperatures

• Minor downtime

• Future production growth

• Finer powder requirements

A common planning approach is to add approximately:

15–25% capacity margin

depending on the application.

If your calculated requirement is:

400 kg/h

with 20% margin:

400 × 1.20 = 480 kg/h

Your target machine capacity becomes approximately:

480 kg/h or higher under actual production conditions.

Step 4: Define Your Required Powder Mesh

This is one of the most important steps.

A pulverizer does not necessarily produce the same kg/h at:

• 20 mesh

• 30 mesh

• 40 mesh

• 60 mesh

• 80 mesh

Generally:

Finer Powder = Lower Capacity

because finer grinding can require:

• Smaller grinding clearance

• More grinding work

• More recirculation

• Longer residence time

• More screening

Therefore, never accept a quotation that simply says:

Capacity: 500 kg/h

Ask:

500 kg/h at what mesh?

Example: How Mesh Size Changes Capacity

Consider an illustrative pulverizer.

The same machine might produce:

These numbers are only an example.

Actual performance depends on material and machine configuration.

The key principle is:

Always size the pulverizer according to the finest powder you normally need to produce.

Step 5: Identify the Plastic Material

Different plastics grind differently.

You cannot assume:

PVC Capacity = PE Capacity = PP Capacity

even when using the same machine.

Material characteristics affecting pulverizer output include:

• Hardness

• Brittleness

• Elasticity

• Softening temperature

• Filler content

• Melt behavior

• Thermal sensitivity

PVC Pulverizer Capacity

Rigid PVC is one of the most common materials processed by disc pulverizers.

Typical applications include:

• PVC pipe recycling

• PVC profile recycling

• PVC sheet recycling

• PVC board processing

• SPC flooring scrap

PVC is relatively rigid and can often achieve stable pulverizing performance.

However, capacity still depends on:

• Required mesh

• CaCO3 content

• Input size

• Grinding disc condition

• Cooling

PE / LLDPE Pulverizer Capacity

PE materials include:

• HDPE

• LDPE

• LLDPE

Typical applications include:

• Rotomolding powder

• Water tank powder

• Recycled PE powder

• Plastic compounding

PE is more sensitive to temperature during grinding.

If grinding temperature becomes too high, the material may:

• Soften

• Smear

• Stick

• Agglomerate

When this happens, capacity can decrease significantly.

Therefore, PE pulverizer capacity must be evaluated together with:

• Cooling system

• Ambient temperature

• Feed temperature

• Grinding disc design

PP Pulverizer Capacity

PP can also be pulverized, but its thermal behavior can affect output.

Machine selection should consider:

• PP grade

• Feed particle size

• Required mesh

• Cooling

• Operating temperature

A capacity number based on PVC should not automatically be used for PP.

EVA, ABS and PET Pulverizer Capacity

Specialty and engineering plastics should be evaluated separately.

EVA

Softness and temperature sensitivity may require more careful cooling and controlled feeding.

ABS

Relatively rigid materials may grind efficiently, but formulation can change performance.

PET

Material hardness and required fineness can affect both capacity and grinding-tool wear.

For these materials, actual material testing is strongly recommended.

Step 6: Define the Input Material Size

Pulverizers are fine-grinding machines.

They should not normally receive large plastic products directly.

Typical suitable feed forms may include:

• Pellets

• Granules

• Flakes

• Pre-crushed plastic

If the material is too large, you may first need:

Shredder → Crusher / Granulator → Pulverizer

For example:

PVC Pipe

PVC Pipe

→ Crusher

→ PVC Flakes

→ Pulverizer

→ Fine PVC Powder

LLDPE Pellets for Rotomolding

LLDPE Pellets

→ Pulverizer

→ Screening

→ Rotomolding Powder

In the second case, pre-crushing may not be necessary.

How Input Size Affects Pulverizer Capacity

Smaller and more uniform feed generally produces more stable pulverizer operation.

Oversized or inconsistent feed can cause:

• Uneven feeding

• Motor-load fluctuations

• Higher grinding temperature

• Reduced output

• Increased wear

Therefore, capacity testing should use feed material similar to your actual production material.

Step 7: Calculate Qualified Powder Capacity

This is one of the most important metrics.

Do not look only at total machine throughput.

Look at:

Qualified Powder Output

Suppose a machine processes:

600 kg/h total material

but only:

75%

meets your required powder specification.

Qualified output:

600 × 75% = 450 kg/h

Another machine processes:

520 kg/h

but:

95%

meets specification.

Qualified output:

520 × 95% = 494 kg/h

The second machine actually gives you more sellable or usable powder.

Therefore, the correct capacity KPI is:

Qualified Powder kg/h

not:

Maximum Feed kg/h

Qualified Powder Yield Formula

Use:

Qualified Powder Output = Total Throughput × Qualified Powder Percentage

For example:

Total throughput:

500 kg/h

Qualified fraction:

88%

Then:

500 × 0.88 = 440 kg/h

Your real useful capacity is:

440 kg/h

Step 8: Consider Recirculation

Many pulverizing systems separate oversized material and return it to the grinding chamber.

This can improve final powder quality.

However, excessive recirculation means:

• More grinding work

• Lower net output

• Higher energy consumption

• Higher grinding-disc wear

Suppose:

Total circulating material:

600 kg/h

but new finished powder leaving the system is only:

400 kg/h

The real production capacity is:

400 kg/h

not 600 kg/h.

When comparing suppliers, ask whether their published capacity means:

• Feed throughput

• Internal circulating load

• Total discharge

• Qualified finished powder

Step 9: Check the Capacity of the Entire Production Line

A pulverizer never operates in isolation in many industrial projects.

A complete line may contain:

• Crusher

• Conveyor

• Storage hopper

• Feeder

• Metal separator

• Pulverizer

• Blower

• Cyclone

• Vibrating screen

• Dust collector

• Powder collection system

Your complete line capacity is controlled by the slowest stage.

Example of a Production Bottleneck

Suppose:

Crusher capacity:

800 kg/h

Pulverizer capacity:

600 kg/h

Vibrating screen capacity:

450 kg/h

The actual complete-line capacity may be limited to approximately:

450 kg/h

because the screening system becomes the bottleneck.

Buying a larger pulverizer will not solve this problem.

The entire line must be balanced.

How to Calculate Complete Pulverizing Line Capacity

Check each stage:

Approximate system capacity:

500 kg/h

because the screen is the limiting stage.

This is why experienced manufacturers should design the complete system rather than simply supplying a larger main machine.

500mm vs 600mm vs 800mm Plastic Pulverizer Capacity

Grinding disc diameter is an important factor, but not the only factor.

Typical industrial machine categories include:

• 400 mm

• 500 mm

• 600 mm

• 800 mm

Larger grinding discs generally provide:

• Larger grinding area

• Higher potential output

• Higher motor power

• Greater material throughput

But larger machines also involve:

• Higher purchase price

• Higher electricity consumption per hour

• Larger footprint

• Higher spare-part cost

When Should You Choose a 500mm Pulverizer?

A 500mm-class machine may be suitable when:

• Production demand is relatively moderate

• Factory space is limited

• Daily powder requirement is lower

• You are starting a new powder production project

• You want lower initial investment

It can be a good choice for small-to-medium industrial production.

When Should You Choose a 600mm Pulverizer?

A 600mm-class machine often provides a balance between:

• Capacity

• Energy use

• Investment

• Industrial reliability

It may be suitable for:

• Medium-scale PVC recycling

• PE powder production

• Masterbatch processing

• Growing production plants

When Should You Choose an 800mm Pulverizer?

An 800mm-class machine is typically considered when:

• Daily production demand is high

• The pulverizer will operate multiple shifts

• Factory material supply is stable

• Higher hourly output is required

• Auxiliary equipment can support the higher capacity

Do not choose an 800mm machine only because it appears more powerful.

If the factory only uses 30–40% of its capacity, the investment may not be economical.

Example 1: Calculate Capacity for a PVC Pipe Recycling Factory

Suppose your PVC pipe factory needs:

5 tons of recycled PVC powder per day

Scheduled production:

12 hours/day

Estimated effective utilization:

85%

Effective hours:

12 × 0.85 = 10.2 hours

Required qualified powder output:

5,000 ÷ 10.2 = 490 kg/h

Add 20% safety margin:

490 × 1.20 = 588 kg/h

Target capacity:

Approximately 600 kg/h of qualified PVC powder

The manufacturer should then confirm which machine configuration can achieve approximately 600 kg/h at your required mesh.

Example 2: Calculate Capacity for Rotomolding Powder Production

Suppose your LLDPE powder business requires:

3 tons/day

Effective production:

10 hours/day

Required output:

3,000 ÷ 10 = 300 kg/h

Add 20% capacity margin:

300 × 1.20 = 360 kg/h

Target:

Approximately 350–400 kg/h of qualified rotomolding powder

But the final machine must be selected according to:

• LLDPE grade

• Required mesh

• Powder distribution

• Ambient temperature

For rotomolding applications, powder quality can be more important than maximum kg/h.

Example 3: Calculate Capacity for SPC Flooring Recycling

Suppose your SPC factory produces:

8 tons/day of recyclable production scrap

You want to process everything internally.

Effective pulverizer operation:

14 hours/day

Required average output:

8,000 ÷ 14 = 571 kg/h

Add 20% margin:

571 × 1.20 = 685 kg/h

Target capacity:

Approximately 700 kg/h

However, SPC materials may contain high levels of CaCO3.

This can affect:

• Blade wear

• Motor load

• Actual output

• Maintenance frequency

Material testing should therefore be included before final machine selection.

Example 4: Calculate Capacity for a 24-Hour Recycling Plant

Daily powder requirement:

12 tons

Scheduled operation:

24 hours/day

Assume effective uptime:

90%

Effective hours:

21.6 hours

Required capacity:

12,000 ÷ 21.6 = 556 kg/h

Add 20% margin:

556 × 1.20 = 667 kg/h

A system producing approximately:

650–700 kg/h

under actual material conditions may therefore be suitable.

However, for continuous 24-hour production you should also consider:

• Maintenance schedule

• Spare grinding discs

• Bearing life

• Cooling capacity

• Automatic feeding

• Dust collection

• Backup strategy

Capacity is only useful if the machine can maintain it reliably.

Should You Buy One Large Pulverizer or Two Smaller Machines?

This is an important question for larger factories.

Suppose your production requirement is:

800 kg/h

You may consider:

Option A

One machine:

800 kg/h

Option B

Two machines:

400 kg/h + 400 kg/h

Advantages of One Large Pulverizer

• Lower number of operators

• Simpler pipework

• Smaller total footprint

• Lower number of auxiliary systems

• Easier central control

Advantages of Two Smaller Pulverizers

• Production redundancy

• One machine can continue if the other requires maintenance

• Flexible production scheduling

• Different materials can potentially be processed separately

• Easier partial-capacity operation

For factories where downtime is extremely expensive, two machines may provide better operational security.

How Much Spare Capacity Should Your Factory Have?

There is no universal percentage.

A practical capacity reserve often depends on:

• Production growth

• Maintenance strategy

• Material variability

• Number of shifts

• Seasonality

• Downtime cost

For many projects, approximately:

15–25% additional capacity

provides reasonable flexibility.

If production growth is expected to be very rapid, additional reserve may be justified.

Do not automatically add 50–100% extra capacity, because oversized equipment can reduce capital efficiency.

How Blade Wear Affects Pulverizer Capacity

A newly sharpened grinding disc may produce higher output than a worn grinding disc.

As grinding edges wear:

• Cutting efficiency decreases

• Material temperature may increase

• Motor load changes

• Output decreases

• Oversize percentage may increase

For example:

New grinding tools:

450 kg/h qualified powder

After significant wear:

370 kg/h

Capacity reduction:

80 kg/h

or approximately:

17.8%

This means your capacity plan must include realistic blade maintenance.

How Cooling Affects Pulverizer Capacity

Cooling is especially important for:

• PE

• PP

• EVA

• Heat-sensitive materials

A machine may initially produce:

400 kg/h

but after prolonged operation, temperature increases and output falls to:

300 kg/h

If the supplier only reports short-term test output, the machine may appear more productive than it is during continuous factory operation.

Always ask:

What capacity can the machine maintain during continuous operation?

not simply:

What is the maximum output?

How Ambient Temperature Affects Capacity

Factory conditions matter.

A PE pulverizer operating in:

15°C ambient temperature

may behave differently from the same machine operating in:

40°C ambient temperature

in the Middle East or Southeast Asia.

For hot climates, consider:

• Larger cooling capacity

• Water chiller

• Improved airflow

• Controlled material temperature

Capacity planning should consider the actual factory environment.

How Feed Stability Affects Output

Pulverizers perform best with stable feeding.

If feed continuously changes from:

0 → overload → 0 → overload

the machine may experience:

• Motor-current fluctuation

• Temperature instability

• Uneven powder quality

• Lower average output

Automatic feeders and frequency-controlled feeding can improve effective capacity even if the main motor remains unchanged.

Maximum Capacity vs Economical Capacity

Every machine has a theoretical maximum output.

But operating permanently at maximum output may not be the most economical strategy.

A machine running at approximately:

75–90% of stable capacity

may offer better:

• Reliability

• Temperature control

• Blade life

• Powder consistency

than a machine continuously pushed to 100% load.

Therefore, ask suppliers for:

Maximum Capacity

and:

Recommended Continuous Capacity

They are not necessarily the same.

How Capacity Affects Energy Consumption per Ton

A pulverizer with lower hourly output may consume more electricity per ton.

For example:

Machine power consumption:

50 kW

At:

400 kg/h

Specific energy:

50 ÷ 0.4 = 125 kWh/ton

If output drops to:

250 kg/h

while power remains:

47 kW

Specific energy:

47 ÷ 0.25 = 188 kWh/ton

Therefore, correct machine sizing affects both:

• Production capacity

• Electricity cost

An undersized or poorly optimized pulverizer can increase production cost per ton.

How Capacity Affects Pulverizer ROI

Suppose Machine A costs less but produces:

300 kg/h

Machine B costs more but produces:

500 kg/h

If your factory needs:

5 tons/day

Machine A may need:

16.7 effective hours

Machine B needs:

10 hours

The larger machine may provide:

• Lower labor hours

• More production flexibility

• More time for maintenance

• Higher future capacity

Machine selection should therefore consider:

Cost per Ton + Required Production Hours + Future Growth

rather than purchase price alone.

10 Questions to Ask a Pulverizer Manufacturer About Capacity

Before buying a machine, ask:

1. What material was used to calculate the advertised capacity?

PVC?

PE?

PP?

Another polymer?

2. What was the required powder mesh?

Capacity without mesh specification is incomplete.

3. What was the input material size?

Pellets and large flakes do not behave the same.

4. Is the capacity total throughput or qualified powder output?

This is critical.

5. What percentage of powder meets the required specification?

Ask for a sieve analysis when possible.

6. Is the capacity measured during continuous operation?

A short demonstration is not the same as industrial production.

7. What grinding-disc condition was used?

New grinding discs produce different results from worn tools.

8. What cooling system was operating?

Air cooling?

Water cooling?

Chiller?

9. What auxiliary equipment is included?

The vibrating screen, blower and feeder must also handle the required capacity.

10. Can you test my actual material?

This is one of the best ways to verify real output.

What Information Should You Send for an Accurate Capacity Recommendation?

Before contacting a manufacturer, prepare:

1. Plastic material

2. Raw material photos

3. Material formulation if available

4. Input particle size

5. Required mesh or micron size

6. Required kg/h

7. Required tons/day

8. Operating hours/day

9. Factory ambient temperature

10. Electrical voltage and frequency

11. Existing crusher or granulator

12. Final powder application

For example:

Material: LLDPE
Input: 4–6 mm pellets
Final Powder: 35 mesh rotomolding powder
Production Requirement: 4 tons/day
Effective Hours: 10 hours/day
Country: Saudi Arabia

This information allows the manufacturer to recommend a much more accurate pulverizer configuration.

This table is for preliminary planning only.

Final machine capacity must be confirmed according to:

Material + Mesh + Feed Size + Continuous Operating Conditions

Common Pulverizer Capacity Selection Mistakes

Mistake 1: Choosing by Disc Diameter Only

An 800mm pulverizer does not automatically produce twice as much qualified powder as a 400mm machine.

Material and powder specification matter.

Mistake 2: Using Maximum Capacity as Normal Capacity

Do not design your entire factory around a machine's best-case maximum specification.

Use stable continuous output.

Mistake 3: Ignoring Mesh Size

A machine that produces 500 kg/h at 30 mesh may not produce 500 kg/h at 80 mesh.

Mistake 4: Ignoring Qualified Powder Yield

Total throughput is not the same as usable powder.

Mistake 5: Ignoring Blade Wear

Capacity normally changes as grinding components wear.

Mistake 6: Ignoring Cooling

This is especially dangerous with PE, PP and EVA.

Mistake 7: Ignoring the Screen Capacity

A large pulverizer paired with an undersized vibrating screen creates a bottleneck.

Mistake 8: Designing for Today's Demand Only

If your production is expected to increase by 20% next year, include reasonable growth capacity.

How to Verify Pulverizer Capacity Before Purchase

Whenever possible, conduct a factory material test.

Ask the manufacturer to record:

• Raw material weight

• Test duration

• Feed size

• Powder mesh

• Total output

• Qualified powder output

• Oversize percentage

• Powder temperature

• Motor current

• Electricity consumption

For example:

Test time:

60 minutes

Raw feed:

450 kg

Finished qualified powder:

390 kg

Oversize / recycled:

60 kg

Qualified capacity:

390 kg/h

This test provides much more useful information than a catalog specification alone.

Frequently Asked Questions About Plastic Pulverizer Capacity

What is the capacity of a plastic pulverizer machine?

Industrial plastic pulverizer capacities vary widely depending on machine size and material.

Small machines may process tens or hundreds of kilograms per hour, while larger industrial systems can process several hundred kilograms per hour or more.

Actual capacity should always be specified together with material and powder size.

What is the capacity of a 500mm plastic pulverizer?

There is no universal 500mm capacity.

Actual output depends on:

• PVC, PE or PP

• Required mesh

• Feed size

• Motor power

• Cooling

• Grinding-disc design

Ask for tested qualified powder output rather than relying only on disc diameter.

What is the capacity of a 600mm pulverizer?

A 600mm machine generally provides more grinding area and potential output than a 500mm machine, but actual production varies significantly according to application.

The manufacturer should quote output at your required mesh and material.

Is an 800mm pulverizer always better than a 600mm machine?

No.

An 800mm pulverizer may provide higher potential capacity, but it also involves higher investment, installed power and spare-part costs.

If your factory does not require the additional production, a smaller machine may provide better ROI.

Does finer powder reduce pulverizer capacity?

Usually yes.

Producing finer powder often requires more grinding work and can increase recirculation, which reduces qualified kg/h.

Does PE have lower capacity than PVC?

Not necessarily in every case, but PE is generally more sensitive to grinding temperature.

Actual performance depends on PE grade, cooling and powder requirement.

Do not estimate PE capacity using PVC data.

How much extra pulverizer capacity should I buy?

A planning margin of approximately 15–25% is often reasonable for industrial projects, but the correct reserve depends on production growth, material variation, uptime requirements and maintenance strategy.

How do I calculate tons per day from kg/h?

Use:

Daily Capacity (tons) = kg/h × Effective Operating Hours ÷ 1,000

For example:

500 kg/h × 12 hours ÷ 1,000 = 6 tons/day

Should I calculate capacity using 24 hours for a 24-hour factory?

Not automatically.

Use effective operating hours after accounting for:

• Maintenance

• Cleaning

• Material changes

• Minor stoppages

What is the best way to confirm actual pulverizer capacity?

Test your actual material under your required mesh and production conditions.

Measure qualified powder output over a meaningful continuous test period.

Final Conclusion: Calculate Capacity from Your Factory Requirement, Not the Machine Model

Choosing plastic pulverizer capacity should begin with your production requirement—not with whether the machine is called MF500, MF600 or MF800.

Start with:

Daily Powder Requirement

Then calculate:

Daily Powder ÷ Effective Operating Hours

Add an appropriate production margin.

Then adjust the machine selection according to:

• Plastic material

• Required mesh

• Input size

• Qualified powder yield

• Cooling

• Grinding-disc condition

• Screening capacity

• Future production growth

The most important purchasing metric is:

Qualified Powder kg/h at Your Required Mesh

A machine advertised as 600 kg/h is not valuable if it only produces 400 kg/h of usable powder for your application.

Likewise, buying an oversized machine can increase your investment without improving profitability.

The right pulverizer is the machine that can reliably produce your required daily powder volume at the required quality, while maintaining reasonable energy consumption, maintenance cost and production flexibility.
