Getting the Sinest Grind – Here's how We Do it:
• Our sophisticated, automated process control monitors by temperature and adjusts for varying factors, such as hard-burned limestone, that would usually affect output consistency.
Getting the Sinest Grind – Here's how We Do it:
High Efficiency Vertical Grinding Mill |
Recirculating Tank

Hydrocyclone |
The Vertimill VTM-150 Grinding Mill Slaker allows for longer retention and considerable recirculation of product for secondary grinding and slaking. | Gravity separates larger material for regrinding. | Centrifugal force removes remaining heavier materials and recirculates them – virtually eliminating the possibility of grit entering into product storage tanks. |
Accuracy You Can Rely On
• Our sophisticated, automated process control monitors by temperature and adjusts for varying factors, such as hard-burned limestone, that would usually affect output consistency.
• An extremely high level of QA/QC testing – both internal and external.
• Highly-controlled processes enable adjustment of product densities as needed.
