Gypsum powder production requires precise moisture control and efficient grinding to achieve optimal product quality. The YGM160 Raymond Mill plant with integrated rotary dryer system offers a comprehensive solution for producing high-quality gypsum powder with capacities ranging from 8 to 16 tons per hour. This complete gypsum powder production line combines advanced drying technology with proven Raymond mill performance to deliver exceptional results for construction, industrial, and agricultural applications.
• Integrated Pre-Drying System; Effectively reduces raw gypsum moisture to optimal levels (<6%), ensuring smooth mill operation and preventing clogging.
• High Efficiency & Stable Performance: The YGM160 Raymond Mill uses a plum blossom frame structure and advanced grinding roller assembly for powerful and stable grinding.
• Precise Fineness Control (80–400 Mesh); The adjustable turbo classifier allows precise control over the final gypsum powder fineness to meet different application requirements.
• Energy Saving & Environmental Protection; Equipped with dust collectors and sealed systems to ensure clean emissions and a dust-free workplace.
• Easy Operation & Low Maintenance; Wear-resistant parts such as grinding rollers and rings are made of high-quality alloys for extended service life. Easy access for maintenance and component replacement.
The YGM160 Raymond Mill Plant for gypsum processing follows a streamlined workflow that includes material pre-drying, feeding, grinding, classification, powder collection, and dust control. Here's how it works:
• A jaw crusher reduces gypsum lumps to ≤30mm—small enough for efficient drying and grinding. Gypsum’s softness means minimal crushing force is needed, reducing energy use and wear.
• Uniform particle size ensures even drying in the next stage, avoiding “wet cores” that cause caking during grinding.
• Crushed gypsum particles move through the rotary dryer (heated by natural gas, diesel, or biomass), where hot air circulates to lower moisture to 2-3%. The dryer’s inclined design ensures slow, even movement—no over-drying or under-drying.
• Gypsum begins to lose water of crystallization at temperatures above 150°C; the rotary dryer stays below this threshold, preserving gypsum’s chemical properties (critical for cement retarders or construction use).
• A frequency-adjustable vibrating feeder transports dried gypsum into the YGM160 mill’s grinding chamber.Inside the grinding chamber, 4 high-chromium steel rollers rotate against a fixed grinding ring. Gypsum is crushed and ground via gentle pressure (not impact) to avoid overheating. A high-pressure spring system enhances roller contact, ensuring thorough grinding even for denser gypsum varieties.
• The Raymond mill YGM160’s optimized chamber design increases airflow, carrying ground particles to the classifier quickly and reducing grinding time—supporting 8-16 TPH output for gypsum.
• Captures 95% of the classified gypsum powder using centrifugal force. Its smooth, anti-stick inner lining prevents gypsum from adhering to walls (a common issue with sticky, high-moisture gypsum), maximizing recovery.
• A pulse-jet bag filter traps residual dust, meeting EPA and CE environmental standards. This eliminates air pollution and ensures a clean workspace—ideal for plants near urban areas.
•Collected gypsum powder is discharged into a storage silo via a screw conveyor. It can then be packaged into 25kg bags (for small sales) or loaded into bulk trucks (for construction projects). The entire process is automated, reducing manual labor and contamination risks.
• Tailored Configuration: Optimized jaw + cone/impact crusher combos for materials (hardness, moisture, size) and capacity (50–2,000 t/h).
• Smart Control: PLC automation for remote monitoring and self-adjustment (e.g., cone crusher discharge).
• Comprehensive Support: From planning to maintenance, ensuring long-term operational efficiency.
• Durable Parts & Upkeep: Premium wear parts (e.g., jaw plates, hammers) and proactive maintenance for sustained performance.
