The Bundaberg Two Roll Mill is a type of open mill used primarily in the rubber and plastics industries for mixing, compounding, and processing materials. It consists of two horizontally positioned rolls that rotate in opposite directions at different speeds, creating a shearing action that helps blend and homogenize the material.
Key Features:
1. Rolls: Typically made of hardened steel or chilled cast iron, the rolls are designed to withstand high pressures and temperatures.
2. Adjustable Gap: The distance between the two rolls can be adjusted to control the thickness and consistency of the processed material.
3. Heating/Cooling: Rolls can be heated or cooled to achieve the desired temperature for processing specific materials.
4. Safety Features: Includes safety mechanisms like emergency stops and roll guards to protect operators.
