Giới thiệu
As we know, classifying wheel is the core component of air classifier mill. Its material directly affects the wear resistance, classification accuracy and application range of the equipment. This article will analyze the advantages and disadvantages of classifying wheel of different materials based on actual application scenarios. We would be honored if it could play a little role in optimizing your equipment efficiency and costs.
Function and material requirements of classifying wheel
Classifying wheel is the “heart” of air classifier mill. It achieves precise separation of particles through high-speed rotation, and its material should meet the following key properties:
High wear resistance: Resist material impact and friction, extending service life.
High-precision classification: High surface finish, to reduce particle agglomeration and improve control accuracy of particle size.
Chemical stability: Strong corrosion resistance, to avoid material contamination.
Mechanical strength: Withstand centrifugal force of high-speed rotation (speed can reach 6000rpm).
Mainstream materials and application analysis
1. Zirconia (ZrO₂)
Đặc trưng
· Hardness HRA 88-90, wear resistance is 3-5 times that of alumina.
· Density 6.0g/cm³, excellent impact resistance.
· Strong chemical inertness, no risk of metal contamination.
· High cost (about 3-5 times that of alumina).
Typical applications
– Lithium battery materials: High-precision classification of ternary precursors and lithium iron phosphate (D97≤5μm).
– Electronic ceramics: Ultra-fine classification of alumina substrates and MLCC dielectric materials.
– Medicine and food: Materials with high purity requirements, such as antibiotics Và tinh bột.
2. Alumina (Al₂O₃)
Đặc trưng
· Hardness HRA 85-87, medium wear resistance.
· Density 3.8g/cm³, high thermal conductivity (30W/(m・K)).
· Low cost (about 1/3 of zirconia).
· High temperature resistance ≤1600℃.
Typical applications
– Ceramic raw materials: Large-scale classification of feldspar and quartz sand.
– Building materials industry: Conventional particle size control of cement and refractory materials.
– Heat dissipation components: Efficient heat dissipation requirements of electronic substrates.
3. Silicon Carbide (SiC)
Đặc trưng
· Hardness HRA 90-92, highest wear resistance.
· Density 3.2g/cm³, excellent corrosion resistance.
· Extremely high cost (about 5-8 times that of zirconium oxide).
Typical applications
– Super-hard materials: Grinding and grading of diamond and corundum.
– Special fields: aerospace, military and other high-demand scenarios.
4. Metal material (such as stainless steel)
Đặc trưng
· High strength, easy to process and shape.
·Ordinary steel has better wear resistance than aluminum alloy, but weaker than ceramics (such as zirconia).
· Relatively low cost.
Typical applications
Building materials: Classification of cement clinker, fly ash, and talcum powder, etc.
Chemical industry: Classification of resin particles and calcium carbonate (stainless steel material is required for corrosion resistance).
Environmental protection field: Classification of waste incineration ash (surface wear-resistant treatment is required).

Phần kết luận
In summary, classifying wheels made from different materials exhibit distinct characteristics and specific application scenarios. In practical applications, the material choice of classifying wheel needs to comprehensively consider material properties, classification requirements, and cost. We believe that, in future, development of composite materials will further balance performance and cost, driving the intelligentization and high efficiency of air classifier mill.
