Hello, I'm designing a machine to produce powder of carob pod but I would like to know the index work?

12 October 2016 1 8K Report

I'm designing a hammer mill but I need to calculate the energy necesary to reduce a carob pod in a particle of 150 micrometers (Mesh 100).

I think you could use "Bond Work index" or "Hardgrove Grindability Index" as a indicative.

Best regards.
