Objective: keep constant height between track bottom and dam ring high part.
How to follow the table wear and the dam ring height:
Recharge the table profile regularly to keep constant the global dam ring height

Normal Grinding
Coarse material is
ground under the roller.
If the table material is
presented uniformly, the
roller passes over the
bed smoothly.
Table rotation
Fines (and some coarse)
fall over the edge of the table
50
Causes:
-Too much feed
-High internal recirculation
-Not enough grinding
-Speed of de-aeration
Snow-plowing
pushes at the roller,
causing a twist in the
mill body. When it
snaps back, causes a
higher frequency
torsional vibration.
