Vertical mills (such as bowl, roller grinding, ball-and-ring, and roller mills) are mainly used for comminuting limestone, clinker, slag, lime, gypsum, and ores for the building industry, and coal in the coal preparation. They reduce raw material from a thickness of 30 mm to a very fine-grained material. The pulverizing of mineral raw materials is an extraordinarily energy-consuming process. To make processes economically efficient, the power transmission equipment to be used must be adapted to the specific requirements of the preparation process.
