The mill product can either be finished size ready for processing, or an intermediate size ready for final grinding in a rod mill, ball mill or pebble mill. AG/SAG mills can accomplish the same size reduction work as two or three stages of crushing and screening, a rod mill, and some or all of the work of a ball mill
Cement Ball Mill Structure. When Ball Mill is working, raw material enters the mill cylinder through the hollow shaft of the feed. The inside of the cylinder is filled with grinding media of various diameters (steel balls, steel segments, etc.); when the cylinder rotates around the horizontal axis at a certain speed, Under the action of centrifugal force and friction force, the
Transfer Size, T80: Is the 80% passing size of ore as it passes from the SAG mill to the ball mill. It is typically about 1/3 the size of the screen opening but can be coarser than 1/3, especially when a pebble crusher is used. Screening at 5 mm ensures that the T80 will be about 10 mesh (1.7 mm) ensuring that the ball mill will work efficiently
Aug 30, 2019 K’4 — feed size and product size coefficient of mill. G3 G4 — The production capacity of existing or experimental mills with newly designed and parameters (feed size or product size calculated according to the new generation 0.074mm level) is shown in Table 1-6
Jul 05, 2020 The balls which could be of different diameter occupy 30 – 50 % of the mill volume and its size depends on the feed and mill size. The large balls tend to break down the coarse feed materials and the smaller balls help to form fine product by reducing void spaces between the balls. Ball mills grind material by impact and attrition
Number, size and mass of each ball size depends on mill load and whether or not the media is being added as the initial charge. For the initial chargin of a mill, Coghill and DeVaney (1937) defined the ball size as a function of the top size of the feed, i.e., d †“V = 0.40 K ˆšF dB = ball size (cm) F = feed size (cm)
had decreased for the -2 mm +1.4 mm mono-size feed compared to the bigger -4 mm +2.8 mm mono-size feed. This therefore shows that should the material feed size continue to decrease, the smaller balls will perform better than the larger balls during milling, as was mentioned by Katubilwa et al. Effect of ball diameter size on mill power draw
input (kWh/t) and mill feed and product size distributions (Hinde, 1999; McIvor and Finch, 2007; McIvor et al., 2017). These include the mill grinding rate through the size of interest, calculated independently as above. Media sizing Ball mill media optimization through functional performance modeling
Feeding 15mm to a ball mill this size is not typical - much larger ball mills ( 21' or 7.0m diameter) typically get 12-16mm feed (from what I have seen in my experience) With regards to 3.5 - 4 media, typically for Ball mills of this size (16'), max size of
Optimization of mill performance by using online ball and pulp measurements Soon after a stop, a mill is a dangerous place to enter for the personnel tasked with taking measurements or samples. Crash stops are difficult to handle. The mill and all feed streams should be stopped simultaneously but, often, they are stopped around about the same time
Jul 07, 2017 Sizing of cylpebs or ball media depends on the end product fineness and also the feed size. Selection of the mill lining; for soft minerals usually steel linings are used, sometimes with a high chromium content option, which reduces material discoloration

8.3.2.2 Ball mills. The ball mill is a tumbling mill that uses steel balls as the grinding media. The length of the cylindrical shell is usually 1–1.5 times the shell diameter (Figure 8.11 ). The feed can be dry, with less than 3% moisture to minimize ball coating, or slurry containing 20–40% water by weight
Aug 02, 2013 Based on his work, this formula can be derived for ball diameter sizing and selection: Dm = 6 (log dk) * d^0.5 where D m = the diameter of the single-sized balls in mm.d = the diameter of the largest chunks of ore in the mill feed in mm
Very large tonnages can be ground with these ball mills because they are very effective material handling devices. Ball mills are rated by power rather than capacity. Today, the largest ball mill in operation is 8.53 m diameter and 13.41 m long with a corresponding motor power of 22 MW (Toromocho, private communications)
Jun 19, 2015 A wet grinding ball mill in closed circuit is to be fed 100 TPH of a material with a work index of 15 and a size distribution of 80% passing inch (6350 microns). The required product size distribution is to be 80% passing 100 mesh (149 microns). In order to determine the power requirement, the steps are as follows: Example Calculation
Jun 01, 2018 For this coarser feed the 50 + 20+10 mm ball diameter mix breaks the material at a faster rate compared to the other ball matches. The availability of a ball size for a particular feed size ensures breakage occurs at a faster rate. The 10 mm ball size is unable to nip the large particle size hence the breakage rate is slower
Sep 01, 2013 For the feed size of 90% passing 18.9 mm ( Fig. 6 a), the maximum capacity was obtained with 100% of a make-up ball size of 50.8 mm. As the feed size is reduced to 13.4 mm, a 62:38 mix of 50.8 mm and 25.4 mm balls was found to be the optimum mix
It depends on the rod mill work index and on the desired product size. It will also depend on if you are grinding open or closed circuit and wet or dry. And if you have any stages of grinding, crushing, or classification before it! It will generally be
