Abstract. Ball size distribution is commonly used to optimise and control the quality of the mill product. A simulation model combining milling circuit and ball size distribution was used to determine the best makeup ball charge. The objective function was to find the ball mix that guarantees maximum production of the floatable size range ( ...

Typical power consumption for a 5m diameter by 7mlong ball mill is between and MW. The actual proportion of this energy usefully used in size reduction is thought to be very low, perhaps in the range of 15%. Significant financial and environmental benefits can be obtained by improving this efficiency even slightly.

Discrete element method (DEM) modelling has been used to systematically study the effects of changes in mill operating parameters and particle properties on the charge shape and power draw of a 5m ball mill. Specifically, changes in charge fill level, lifter shape (either by design or wear) and lifter pattern are analysed. The effects of changes to the properties of the charge (ball fraction ...

The lifters in this mill, as estimated from data reported in et al., (2011), reduce the effective mill volume by approximately %, the crashstop load volume by % and the ball charge volume by % compared with assuming a smooth mill shell. The correction accounting for lifter volume described above should, therefore, be made ...

Based on experience, millliner designs have moved toward more openshell lifter spacing, increased pulp lifter volumetric capacity, and a grate design to facilitate maximizing both pebblecrushing circuit utilization and SAG mill capacity. As a guideline, mill throughput is maximized with shell lifters between ratios of :1 and :1.

Research Highlights No considerable influence of speed ratio k in the range − 3 < k < − 1 on the grinding ball motion pattern was observed. Grinding ball motion is strongly affected by the friction arising, among others, from different feed materials. Friction necessarily has to be considered in studies on stress conditions in the planetary ball mill. Results suggest the possibility to ...

The working ball charge in the mill will be as shown in Table 12. Working Ball Charge in Ball Mill. Suppose that once every week the mills are stopped and all balls less than 2 in. in diameter are removed. If the ball wear is 2 lb. per ton of ore crushed, this will amount to 720 lb.

Ball Mill Design The ball mill designs also follow the Bond/Rowlings method with comparison with other methods. Again the method of use is the same SAG/BM Combined design This is the combined model of the SAG and BM models. The difference is that a provision in the BM model allows for the fact that finished product is in the BM feed.

Some ball mills are equipped with grate discharge systems. They require softer alloys, as it is difficult to ensure that the charge level remains high, and the liners can be exposed to impact, causing cracking. Rubber or composite liners are also commonly used in ball mills and perform well even in the biggest ball mills, thanks to their shock

The ball charge is determined by the operator targeting the balance between grind and throughput, the higher the ball charge the more aggressive the milling becomes. With softer oxide ores lower ball charges are usual however the harder sulphides does need more media energies to meet the P80 target and an acceptable throughput.

22 May, 2019. The ball mill consists of a metal cylinder and a ball. The working principle is that when the cylinder is rotated, the grinding body (ball) and the object to be polished (material) installed in the cylinder are rotated by the cylinder under the action of friction and centrifugal force. At a certain height, it will automatically ...
