The particle shape of the materials from the roller press and the vertical roller mill is also different. The vertical mill grinds the material by two forces, the extrusion force and the shearing force between the roller and the grinding disc; the roller press grinds the material by only one force, the force between the two grinding rollers.

2. Vertical Ball Mill. A vertical ball mill is a type of ball mill where the barrel is vertical instead of horizontal. It is designed for fine grinding of materials, and it is usually used in laboratory or small-scale production. Vertical ball mills are more energy-efficient than horizontal ball mills and can operate at higher speeds. 3.
