Abstract

An apparatus for measuring grindability of a powder material comprises a chute for feeding particles to be measured one at a time, a pair of opposed rolls arranged under the chute so as to receive the particle from the chute in a gap between the opposed rolls, one of the opposed rolls having a stationary shaft which is rotatably supported at a fixed position and the other roll having a movable roll shaft which is rotatably supported on the upper end of an L-shaped arm which is pivoted at the corner thereof to a frame, a rigid base opposed to the other end of the L-shaped arm, a device for adjusting the level of the rigid base, and a load cell interposed between the other end of the arm and the rigid base.
