  • Patent number: 4783011
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for the two-stage crushing of brittle material comprising a roll mill and a mill connected downstream thereof, the output of the second mill being delivered to a sifter in which a second branch stream of the grit obtained in the sifting operation is returned to the roll mill and a further branch stream is returned to the second mill. A first control circuit keeps the sum of the quantity of fresh material and the quantity of grit constant, while a second control circuit divides the quantity of grit into two branch streams in such a way that the drive power of the roll mill remains constant.
