Pendulum mill for fine grinding and drying
Achieve efficient and precise grinding for soft to medium-hard materials while minimizing energy consumption and maintaining a narrow particle size distribution.

Grinds, Deagglomerates, Dries, and Classifies Materials
The Pendulum Mill PM from NEUMAN & ESSER is a robust and efficient grinding solution ideal for processing a wide range of materials. This horizontal roller mill is designed for fine grinding and drying, with applications across industries such as chemicals, ceramics, and energy. The mill operates with a pendulum roller system that ensures consistent particle size distribution through a combination of grinding, deagglomeration, drying, and classification. It features a production capacity ranging from 0.1 to 150 tons per hour, addressing the needs of operations requiring both small and large scale throughput.
With its integrated high energy efficiency design, the Pendulum Mill achieves fine particle distribution (10 μm – 1,000 μm) while minimizing energy consumption. The system supports continuous high-speed operations with manual controls for precise adjustments. Constructed with durable materials, it offers customization options for wear protection and specific material compatibility, making it suitable for demanding environments.
Ideal for manufacturing end-products like ceramic tiles, plasterboard, and titanium dioxide pigments, the Pendulum Mill PM aligns seamlessly with various processing lines. NEUMAN & ESSER provides comprehensive engineering support, ensuring the equipment is tailored to meet your precise operational and material requirements.
