The choice of grinding media will always depend on the material to be ground. You need to assess its granulometry and the grinding process. You also need to look at the relative importance of the wear mechanisms in the process. Is there a risk of abrasion, corrosion or impact? And what are the factors influencing these? Magotteaux produces 150 alloys under 5 brand names: Duomax®, Duromax®, Ecomax® Maxicrom® and Hardalloy®. Each of these has a separate purpose. And Magotteaux continues to invest in research and develop new grinding media in their laboratory and pilot foundry.
