Rotation of the drum grinds the stone orclinker between the balls and the plates, and the powder passes throughsections of screens — which for clinker have usually 20 to 28 meshes tothe linear inch — into the hopper below. A single ball mill, such as isshown in sketch, running on clinker, should give an output of, say, 5 500to 7 500 pounds per hour. A tube mill (see Fig. 233) consists of a long horizontal cylinder filled 7i6 A TREATISE ON CONCRETE nearly to its axle with flint pebbles imported from Europe, which averageabout 2 to 3 inches in diameter. The cement is ground by rolling aroundwith the flints. It is then thrown by centrifugal force against the screen,which regulates the fineness of grinding and prevents the passing of piecesof flint. A tube mill which passes, say, 250 barrels of cement per day, K
