Optimization of Gypsum Powder Drying Processes for Enhanced Efficiency and Quality

We provide a wide range of mills — including Raymond mill, trapezoidal mill, vertical mill, ultrafine mill, and ball mill, obtained ISO9001 international quality certification, EU CE certification, and Customs Union CU-TR certification. Suitable for processing minerals such as limestone, phosphate, quicklime, kaolin, talc, barite, bentonite, calcium carbonate, dolomite, coal, gypsum, clay, carbon black, slag, cement raw materials, cement clinker, and more.

The discharge range of these mills can be adjusted to meet specific processing needs, typically from 80-400 mesh, 600-3250 mesh, and can achieve the finest particle size of up to 6000 mesh(D50).

Optimization of Gypsum Powder Drying Processes for Enhanced Efficiency and Quality

In the construction materials industry, the drying and grinding of gypsum is a critical process that directly impacts the final product quality, energy consumption, and overall operational costs. Achieving the optimal balance between particle size distribution, moisture content, and production throughput requires not only precise process control but also the right equipment designed for these specific tasks. Traditional methods often struggle with inefficiencies, leading to higher energy bills, inconsistent product quality, and increased maintenance downtime.

One of the primary challenges in gypsum processing is the removal of crystalline water without causing degradation of the material’s properties. Over-drying can lead to excessive energy use and potential quality issues, while under-drying can result in clogging and poor flow characteristics. Furthermore, the grinding phase must produce a consistent ultra-fine powder without introducing excessive heat or contamination.

Industrial gypsum powder drying and grinding line

To adress these challenges, we highly recommend considering our MW Ultrafine Grinding Mill. This machine is specifically engineered for customers who need to produce high-quality ultra-fine powder from materials like gypsum. With an input size of 0-20 mm and a capacity range of 0.5-25 tph, it offers remarkable flexibility. Its newly designed grinding curves for the roller and ring significantly enhance grinding efficiency. In fact, with the same fineness and power, its production capacity is 40% higher than that of jet mills and stirred grinding mills, and its yield is twice as large as that of a traditional ball mill, all while reducing system energy consumption to just 30% of a jet mill’s.

A key feature for quality control is its adjustable fineness between 325-2500 meshes, achieved through a advanced German-designed cage-type powder selector. This ensures precise separation and a high screening rate, achieving d97≤5μm in a single pass, which is ideal for high-grade gypsum products. Furthermore, the absence of rolling bearings and screws inside the grinding chamber eliminates common failure points and concerns about loose parts causing machine damage. External lubrication allows for maintenance without shutdowns, supporting continuous 24/7 production—a crucial factor for meeting high demand.

MW Ultrafine Grinding Mill in operation processing gypsum

For operations requiring integration of drying and grinding with even larger capacity, our LM Vertical Grinding Mill presents an excellent solution. It integrates crushing, drying, grinding, classifying, and conveying into a single, compact unit. Handling an input size of 0-70 mm and a massive capacity range of 3-340 tph, it is specialized for non-metallic minerals like gypsum. Its greatest advantage lies in its comprehensive optimization, which leads to significantly lower operating costs. The material’s short lingering time in the mill reduces repeated grinding and ensures low iron content in the final product, effectively guaranteeing the whiteness and purity essential for gypsum plaster. Its fully sealed system operating under negative pressure ensures no dust spillage, making the operation eco-friendly and compliant with stringent environmental standards.

Both mills are backed by our commitment to quality and support. We take full responsibility for every machine we produce, offering comprehensive technical services and a sufficient supply of original spare parts to ensure worry-free, long-term operation. By integrating such advanced technology into your gypsum processing line, you can achieve a superior product, reduce your environmental footprint, and significantly boost your bottom line through enhanced efficiency and lower energy consumption.
