Abstract
In a milling apparatus for milling granular material into milled particles, a roll mill includes a pair of rolls which are rotatably arranged in facing relation to each other. At least one of the rolls is movable toward and away from the other. A gap adjusting unit is associated with the at least one roll for moving the same toward and away from the other roll to adjust a gap between the rolls thereby adjusting a milling degree of the milled particles. A measuring unit is arranged downstream of the roll mill and is connected to the gap adjusting unit thereof for measuring the milling degree of the milled particles. The gap adjusting unit is operative in response to an output signal from the measuring unit to move the at least one roll toward and away from the other roll, thereby automatically adjusting the milling degree of the milled particles. A milling system is provided which includes at least two roll mills described above.
