Milling device with adjustable milling operation

A milling device for performing a milling operation comprising:

• a milling unit comprising a housing defining a milling chamber that can be filled with a material to be milled, a rotor assembly rotatably mounted in the housing, and a screen assembly extending below the rotor assembly, wherein the screen assembly serves for fractionating the material milled by the rotor assembly in movement;
• a drive unit adapted for controlling the movements of the rotor assembly relative to the screen assembly during the milling operation;
• a sensor configured to measure properties of the material being milled during the milling operation, wherein the properties of the material being milled which the sensor measures comprise at least one of particle size distribution, number of particles, flow rate, and temperature;
• and
• a control module adapted to determine and adjust milling parameters during the milling operation in accordance with the properties of the material measured by the sensor, such that said controlling the movement of the rotor assembly is performed during the milling operation in accordance with the properties of the material.
