Different types of grinding media are used for various grinding applications. Grinding balls are one type of grinding media used to reduce particle size in mills and are available in various sizes, shapes, and materials like cast iron, steel, and ceramic. Other grinding media include rods, beads, satellites, and specially shaped items. The type of grinding media chosen depends on the material being ground. High-density media made of alumina oxide is often used in pebble and ball mills. Cylpebs are another type of grinding media but are less common and more expensive to produce.

1. Different Types Of Grinding Media And Its Uses
The grinding ball is one kind of the grinding media, and it is used to reduce the size of the
particle. Most of the suppliers offer the wide range of the grinding ball in the cast, low
chromium, high chromium, ceramic, rods grinding beads, balls, and others.
The grinding ball is used to grind the material in the mill, and it is available in different size,
shape, and material to meet the enormous amount of the grinding needs. The
manufacturing of the grinding media is helical rolling of molding, round billet, and
stamping. As the developer of the industry grinding media includes DMQX horizon media
mill, internally attritors ball mill and others help you to identify the proper grinding ball for
the application.
Shapes and diameter of grinding media
The forms of the grinding media such as satellites, balls, and beads satisfy the customer
needs and it specialized shapes is diagonals, ball cones, and others. The diameter of the
grinding media depends on the material, and it is ranging from 0.05 millimeter to 2
millimeters for small mills. The composition of the metallic grinding media ball made of
forged steel, chrome steel grinding, carbon steel, stainless steel and others. Other non-
metallic media are made in different metal such as ceramic, silicon carbide, aluminum,
zirconium oxide and others. You can choose the grinding media depends on the abrasive
material. Before using the grinding ball, you want to choose the perfect grinding media.

2. Types of the grinding media
Most of the industries are using the grinding media, and the grinding media ball is
available in different kinds such alumina oxide balls, flint pebbles, cylpebs, high-density
media, and others. The grinding ball is expensive, and it is helical rolling of the round billet.
 High-density media
The high-density media is specially developed for the pebble and ball mills. This type of the
grinding media made with the alumina oxide and had fifty percent of density than the
standard porcelain balls. It is available in the several shapes such as ovals, cylinders, and
spheres.
 Cylpebs
The Cylpebs are manufactured by the method of casting and rolling. This type of the
grinding media is not common in the grinding tool market. The Cylpebs made of the white
iron, and it is expensive. The higher production price causes this type of the grinding
media, and the milling quality is low.
