The paint and coatings industry in Qatar has witnessed significant growth in recent years, driven by construction booms and industrial development. A critical component in high-quality paint production is the filler material, where cement clinker has emerged as an excellent choice due to its specific properties and cost-effectiveness. However, processing cement clinker into the precise fineness required for paint fillers demands specialized grinding equipment capable of delivering consistent performance in Qatar’s unique environmental conditions.
Cement clinker, when properly ground to the appropriate fineness, serves as an exceptional filler material in paint formulations. The grinding process significantly impacts the final product’s quality, affecting properties such as opacity, viscosity, durability, and application characteristics. For paint fillers, the particle size distribution must be carefully controlled within specific parameters to ensure optimal performance. Too coarse, and the paint may suffer from poor coverage and texture; too fine, and it could affect the paint’s binding properties and application characteristics.
In the Qatari market, where extreme temperatures and humidity levels can affect manufacturing processes, having reliable grinding equipment that can maintain consistent output quality becomes paramount. The 5-10 tons per hour capacity range is particularly relevant for medium-scale paint manufacturers in the region, balancing production requirements with operational efficiency.

Grinding cement clinker for paint filler applications presents several technical challenges that must be addressed:

For paint filler applications, the MTW138Z model is particularly recommended as it comfortably handles the 5-10 TPH requirement while providing flexibility for future production expansion. Its advanced dust collection system ensures a clean working environment, complying with Qatar’s stringent environmental regulations.
For paint manufacturers seeking the highest quality filler material with exceptional particle size distribution control, the LUM Ultrafine Vertical Mill offers cutting-edge technology specifically designed for demanding applications. This mill integrates grinding, drying, classifying, and conveying into a single compact unit, making it ideal for facilities with space constraints – a common challenge in Qatar’s industrial zones.
The LUM series features intelligent control systems that automatically adjust operational parameters to maintain consistent product quality, even with variations in raw material characteristics. This is particularly valuable for paint manufacturers who require batch-to-batch consistency in their filler materials.
| Model | Main Machine Power (kW) | Capacity (t/h) | Size Distribution D97 (μm) |
|---|---|---|---|
| LUM1525 | 220-250 | 1.6-11.5 | 5-30 |
| LUM1632 | 280-315 | 2.0-13.5 | 5-30 |
| LUM1836 | 355-400 | 2.3-15 | 5-30 |
The LUM1632 model is specifically recommended for paint filler production in the 5-10 TPH range, offering the perfect balance of capacity, energy efficiency, and product quality. Its ability to produce ultrafine powders with tight particle size distribution makes it particularly suitable for high-quality paint formulations where filler performance is critical.
