Ceramic Balls

Areas of application:
These high quality glass are ideally suited and widely used in continuous production sand or pearl mills, operating in the vertical or horizontal plane or variations thereof for example batch type centrifugal mills or machines dispersing by a process of attrition. There are used as the grinding media not only in the paint, printing, ink and dyestuffs industries, but also in food, pharmaceutical, cosmetics and other industries which employ dispersion by micro-element processes. They are particularly suitable for these latter industries due to their harmless chemical composition from the health point of view.

The specific weight of these technical beads makes them particularly suitable for applications in mills which process low and medium viscosity mill bases. They also give superior results on pressure sealed mills processing high viscosity products.

The technology used in our beads ensure almost perfect spherical shape and closely controlled diameters. The beads are treated thermally and chemical to ensure polish and extreme impact and wear resistance. It follows that balls produced to such a standard cause the minimum of wear to the grinding mill surfaces.
