Basics of the Basket Mill
Basket mills feature a rotating basket that uses centrifugal force to accelerate the grinding media, much like an amusement park ride where passengers lean against a wall while the ride rotates at high speeds. Unlike the ride, which merely locks passengers into place, the basket contains a disk installed with pegs to permit grinding.
As illustrated in Figure 1, the top, bottom and sides of the basket are perforated to allow the product to enter. In the center of the basket the grinding disc attaches to a shaft that is centered in the basket drive shaft. This inner shaft is braked to prevent the disc from rotating with the beads and product. The sieve basket rotates around the fixed grinding disc.
