Nowadays, as a product for grinding and dispersing materials, three-roller mill is widely used for wet grinding of raw materials in chemical industries such as paint, printing ink, coating, dyestuff, plastic, rubber, lead core, leather, medicine, food, cosmetics and insulating materials with its good dispersion performance, stable quality, convenient operation, easy color change, and beautiful appearance.

To improve its service life while using three-roller mill, many manufacturers often maintain and clean on their own. In the cleaning, paper towels are often used, so inevitably, you will encounter paper towels or paper towel debris falling into the three-roller mill gap and can not be removed. Instead of disassembling the parts of the three-roller mill, you can try the reverse knob or the following five simple steps to remove the paper towel.

（1）Turn off the motor and disconnect the mill from the power supply.

（2）Open the gaps to their widest position.

（3）Cut as much paper towel away from the gap as possible.

（4）Saturate the remaining paper towel by dripping small amounts of water on it. Once the towel is saturated, use tweezers to pick out the pieces until no paper is visible.

（5） Open and Close the gaps several times to compress the paper. The last action should be to open the rollers. Turn the rollers in the normal direction (don’t back up) until the paper rolls through. The more saturated the paper, the more it will compress and dislodge.

Note: If you cannot turn the rollers easily with the hand wheel, you can grab the rear roller and turn it toward the middle roller with your hand with more pressure than you can get with the hand wheel.

It is also important to remind you that cleaning three-roll mill requires strict adherence to the information we provide on proper cleaning and safety procedures. If the rollers pull in something too large, it can lead to expensive parts’ replacement and repairs. It is common to rush through the cleaning process, but remember: slow and steady wins the race.
