Potassium feldspar is indispensable in glassmaking, ceramics, and as a filler in paints, plastics, and rubber. For these applications, achieving the right fineness is key. Different grinding systems offer varying performance levels and costs, making equipment selection a strategic decision for manufacturers.

Grinding Options from Liming Heavy Industry

1. MTW European Grinding Mill

Best suited for 80–325 mesh feldspar powder.

Stable performance, intelligent controls, and efficient lubrication system.

Moderate investment cost, with reliable long-term returns for medium to large production lines.

2. LUM Ultrafine Vertical Mill

Designed for ultrafine powders in the 400–3000 mesh range.

Multi-head separators and advanced roller design ensure superior precision.
