The invention relates to the field of material grinding systems, in particular to a vertical mill grinding system used for preparing raw materials or concrete. The vertical mill grinding system comprises a feeding device, a vertical mill, an efficient separator, a ground material conveying device, an iron removal device, an elevator, a material distributing device, a rotoclone collector, a circulating fan, a dust collector, an exhaust fan and a chimney. According to the vertical mill grinding system, the efficient separator and the vertical mill are of an integrated structure, and the system has the advantages of being reasonable in structural style and compact in arrangement; the efficient separator is provided with an upper material scattering device and a lower material scattering device, materials can enter the upper material scattering device and the lower material scattering device for material scattering and dispersing, material concentration of the upper region of the separator can be lowered, and the separation efficiency can be improved. In addition, the efficient separator integrates material drying, material roughing classification and material concentration classification functions, so that the equipment investment is reduced, and the burdens of enterprises are lowered.
