MTM 160 Medium Speed Trapezium Mill Technical Specifications and Price Guide

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).

MTM 160 Medium Speed Trapezium Mill: A Comprehensive Overview

Hey there, fellow industry professionals. Let’s talk about the MTM 160, a workhorse in the medium-speed grinding category. This mill is a popular choice for processing non-flammable and non-explosive mineral materials with Moh’s hardness less than 9 and humidity below 6%. Think limestone, calcite, dolomite, barite, talc, you name it. It’s a reliable piece of kit for producing powders in the 1.6-0.045mm range (or even down to 0.038mm for some materials).

Key Technical Specifications at a Glance

Alright, let’s get down to the nitty-gritty. The MTM 160 features a ring roll number of 4 and a main roller diameter of 410mm. The main mill motor typically ranges around 130KW, giving it the guts to handle a capacity that can vary based on material hardness and fineness, but you’re generally looking at a throughput in the ballpark of several tons per hour. The separator motor is a smaller beast, usually around 18.5KW. The whole system is designed for efficiency, with a bevel gear overall drive that’s smoother and quieter than the old worm gear transmission found in some older Raymond mills.

Why Consider the MTM 160?

So, what makes this mill tick? First off, its trapezium working surface and flexible connection design help absorb vibration, making the operation notably stable and the noise levels lower. The grinding roller and ring are designed with a curved surface, which reduces the speed of material dropping and increases the grinding time for a better fineness. It’s also got a high-density impeller grader, allowing for accurate separation and a higher quality final product.

Now, while the MTM 160 is a solid performer, sometimes your operation demands something even finer, more specialized. For those ultra-fine powder needs, where you’re pushing into the 2500 mesh range, you gotta look at our MW Ultrafine Grinding Mill. This machine is an absolute beast for making ultra-fine powder. It’s equipped with an efficient pulse dust collector and muffler, keeping things clean and quiet. With a newly designed grinding curve, it offers 40% higher capacity than jet mills or stirred grinding mills at the same power. Its cage-type powder selector is top-notch, allowing you to ajust fineness between 325-2500 meshes with a screening rate that can achieve d97≤5μm. And the best part? No rolling bearings or screws in the grinding chamber means way less worry about maintenance and machine failure. Perfect for chemicals, paints, cosmetics, and high-end additives.

Pricing Considerations and Final Thoughts

Let’s be real, price is always a factor. The MTM 160 sits in a competitive mid-range price bracket. The exact figure isn’t something we blast on a website—it depends on your specific configuration, optional extras, and current market rates for raw materials like steel. You’re looking at an investment that balances upfront cost with solid, reliable performance and lower long-term maintenance needs compared to some alternatives.

For operations that need vertical integration and are dealing with slag or coal, our LM Vertical Grinding Mill series is another fantastic option to explore. It integrates crushing, drying, grinding, classifying and conveying, saving a ton of floor space and energy—up to 30-40% less than a ball mill. Its occupational area is about 50% of that of a ball-milling system. It’s a real space-saver and efficiency gainer.

Ultimately, the right mill depends on your material, desired fineness, and capacity requirements. The MTM 160 is a fantastic all-rounder, but if you’re pushing the boundaries of fineness or need a more integrated solution, we’ve got you covered with the MW and LM series. Drop us a line, and let’s figure out the perfect grinding solution for your plant.
