The throughput of the Gebr. Pfeiffer mill type MVR 1800 C-4 amounts to 22 t/h slag powder (dry-base), depending on the product fineness with up to 5000 Blaine. The mill with four equal-sized grinding rollers and a table diameter of 1.8 m is a proven mill type and can also be operated in two-roller-mode with approx. 60 % of its maximum capacity during maintenance.
