Working Principle for 3 Roll Mills
It is important to note that a lower distance between the rolls can generate more shear while reducing throughput. However, you could come across common gap settings in the measurement of almost 0.001”. You could remove the milled material by scraping it off the apron roll with the help of a take-off knife. All the processes have to be repeated again for improving dispersion or until the stage of reaching particle size equilibrium.

Best Practices for Triple Roll Mill Maintenance
When your order for a triple roll mill arrives, you are most likely to open it up right away. However, you need to keep your excitement under check and make sure that you handle the unboxing carefully. Generally, triple roll mill suppliers ensure that the package is supplied in a completely assembled form.
So, you have to be careful while removing the mill from the container so as to avoid any damage to the equipment. Most important of all, you should be very careful to avoid any scratches or damage to the working surface of the rolls. The effectiveness of a triple roll mill depends considerably on the smoothness of the roll surfaces.
· Set the Mill in Place
Before your start the operations of your 3-roll mill, you must ensure that it is set in the right place. First of all, you should make sure that the mill has been bolted appropriately in the desired place. It is important to note that you need a solid base, especially for production size triple roll mills. After leveling and bolting the mill in the desired place, you should look for a qualified electrician to take care of wiring and installation of the essential components for electrical control.
· Positioning the Take-off Knife
The take-off knife is one of the most critical components in a triple roll mill as it helps in scraping off the milled material from the apron loop. The take-off knife of the triple roll mill’s apron comes with a sharp cutting edge, and it is important to handle it with extreme caution. With the proper positioning, you would find the knife making contact with the roll just above the centerline while being completely parallel with it.
· Determine the Gap Setting
The gap setting between the rolls of a 3-roll mill also plays a crucial role in its effectiveness. However, it could be a complicated decision as increasing the gap offers better throughput while reducing the shear force. So, you must carry out testing for finding out the ideal gap setting for your desired products to achieve improvement throughout without compromising with dispersion quality. · Care during Operation of the Mill If you are using a triple roll mill, then you must be aware of the necessary precautions you must take while operating the machine. First of all, you should not run the mill without any feed. If the product has been completely milled, you must open the rolls and disengage the apron. Most important of all, you should avoid wearing loose clothing or accessories which could probably get tangles with the rolls. Furthermore, you should also focus on the maintenance of ball or roller bearings in the roll journals by lubricating them regularly.
