What is a Bead Mill?
A Bead Mill is an advanced grinding and dispersion machine that uses small grinding
media (beads) to break down solid particles suspended in a liquid. As the beads move
inside a rotating chamber, they generate shear force and impact energy, leading to
fine particle size reduction and uniform mixing. Unlike traditional mills, bead mills
deliver faster processing, higher efficiency, and more consistent formulations, making
them a preferred choice in industries where product quality is critical.

How Bead Mills Work
Bead mills operate by filling a chamber with grinding media (beads) and a slurry containing solid
particles. When the chamber rotates, the beads collide with the particles, breaking them down
into smaller sizes. This process combines impact force, shear force, and friction to
achieve ultra-fine grinding and stable dispersions.
The choice of bead size plays a crucial role:
- • Smaller beads are used for nano-level grinding.
- • Larger beads are better for coarser dispersions.
Align Industry provides guidance to customers in selecting the right configuration for their
applications.
