IsaMill
open-in-new
<p>The IsaMill is a type of efficient stirred <a href="/facts/Grinding_mill/0PWTxI1c">grinding</a> mill for fine and coarse griding used in mineral industry. It was jointly developed in the 1990s by <a href="/facts/Mount_Isa_Mines/m7zTVxvC">Mount Isa Mines</a> Limited ("MIM", a subsidiary of MIM Holdings Limited and now part of the <a href="/facts/Glencore_Xstrata/XPUBgBof">Glencore Xstrata</a> group of companies, Australia) and Netzsch Feinmahltechnik ("Netzsch"), a German manufacturer of bead mills. The IsaMill is primarily known for its ultrafine grinding applications in the mining industry, but is also being used as a more efficient means of coarse grinding. By the end of 2008, over 70% of the IsaMill's installed capacity was for conventional regrinding or mainstream grinding applications (as opposed to ultrafine grinding), with target product sizes ranging from 25 to 60 <a href="/facts/%25CE%259Cm/7eDFxD2L">μm</a>. </p>
