Mill head

Material Composition: Mill heads are typically made from a single piece of cast steel, though nodular cast iron is also commonly used due to its high strength, good ductility, and cost-effectiveness. Specific grades include EN-GJS-400-18, EN-GJS-450-10, or cast steel Grade GS-60.1 (DIN 17100).
Structural Design: The design is typically a flat or conical shape without internal reinforcement ribs, which were found to have a detrimental effect on radial stress. The shape is optimized to handle high flexural stresses and dynamic loads.
Manufacturing Process: The manufacturing process involves precision casting, often utilizing CAE software for simulation to ensure quality, followed by heat treatment and precise machining of the flange for bolting to the mill shell.
