THE OPTIMAL BALL DIAMETER IN A MILL

The ball size in a mill has a significant influence on the mill throughput, power consumption and ground material size (Austin et al., 1976; Fuerstenau et al., 1999; Kotake et. al., 2004). The basic condition, which must be met while grinding the material in a mill is that the ball, while breaking the material grain, causes in it stress which is higher than the grain hardness (Bond, 1962 ...

where d b.max is the maximum size of feed (mm); σ is compression strength (MPa); E is modulus of elasticity (MPa); ρb is density of material of balls (kg/m 3); D is inner diameter of the mill body (m).. Generally, a maximum allowed ball size is situated in the range from D /18 to D/24.. The degree of filling the mill with balls also influences productivity of the mill and milling efficiency.

Optimization of mill performance by using

is required to obtain the accurate ball load measurement or the percentage by volume of balls in the mill. This is usually performed soon after a crash stop. The basic principle is to measure the height ‘H’ from the charge to the shell and the internal mill diameter ‘Di’. By calculating the ratio ‘H/Di’ and using the graph below (Figure 1), the charge filling degree in volume could ...

2019-08-30  1 Calculation of ball mill capacity. The production capacity of the ball mill is determined by the amount of material required to be ground, and it must have a certain margin when designing and selecting. There are many factors affecting the production capacity of the ball mill, in addition to the nature of the material (grain size, hardness, density, temperature and humidity), the degree of ...

Ball Mill Ball Mills Wet Dry Grinding DOVE

DOVE supplies various types and sizes of Ball Mill Balls, including; Cast Iron steel Balls, Forged grinding steel balls, High Chrome cast steel bars, with surface hardness of 60-68 HRC. DOVE Ball Mills achieves size reduction by impact and attrition. When the cylinder rotates, the balls are dragged to almost the top of the shell, and from there, they fall unto the material, which lead to the ...

MODULE #5: FUNCTIONAL PERFOMANCE OF BALL MILLING

particle size as the target grind size for the ball mill circuit; for ex-ample, it is convenient to select the desired 80% passing size as the target grind size. You can then use this target grind size to define and distinguish between "coarse" and "fine" particles in any of the given circuit streams. Coarse particles are therefore larger than the circuit target grind size. Fine particles are ...
