Diretrizes para a construção de um moinho de bolas para a moagem de sólidos em laboratórios

Abstract

In this paper, we show the construction of a low-cost, high-quality ball mill for obtaining finely divided powders, with the goal of presenting guidelines for achieving the best results for the milling process. This equipment allows for the adjustment of the size of the mill in order to process different quantities of material. The construction of mechanical and electrical components that provide increased efficiency, the choice of milling medium, and frequent problems experienced with homemade ball mills are discussed.
