The subject of the study is the flexural fluctuations of the rotors of knife refiners. The dynamic and mathematical models of rotors of disk mills are developed. As a result of research, a method for vibration calculation of rotors is proposed and tested. Research was also conducted using the Ansys software package. The error in determining the lower frequencies of free fluctuations of the mill rotors does not exceed 9%. Failure to take into account the elastic compliance of the rotor bearings leads to an error in determining the frequencies of free flexural fluctuations by no more than 15%, and the gyroscopic moment increases the above frequencies by no more than 25%. The cantilever arrangement of the disk reduces the frequencies of free fluctuations of the mill rotor by 1.1 - 1.4 times in comparison with the inter-support arrangement. The developed calculation procedure can be used in other industries, for example, mining and metallurgy.
