Key Benefits of Pfeiffer Dry Grinding Technologies

• Grinding, drying and classifying in a single machine
• Significantly lower electrical energy consumption
• Higher recovery even at coarser grinding
• Reduced water demand, even more with dry grinding
• Narrow particle size distribution with less fines 
• Easier dewatering of coarser tailings

Pfeiffer’s dry grinding technologies offer a multitude of advantages that set us apart in the mining sector. Our integrated systems allow for grinding, drying, and classifying in a single machine, significantly reducing electrical energy consumption. This innovative approach not only leads to higher recovery rates, even at coarser grinding, but also minimizes water demand, making it an environmentally friendly choice. The narrow particle size distribution achieved with our dry grinding solutions results in less fines and easier dewatering of coarser tailings, enhancing overall operational efficiency.
