Read MoreIV. BALL MILLS Ball mills are one of the more common mills and use a closed cylindrical container that is rotated horizontally on its axis so that the media cascades. A typical ball mill has an L/D ratio of 1.5:1. Ball mills are filled with spheres or other shapes made of steel or ceramics; or with pebbles made of flint (or of an ore being ground).
Read MoreThe starting point for ball mill media and solids charging generally starts as follows: 50% media charge. Assuming 26% void space between spherical balls (non-spherical, irregularly shaped and mixed-size media will increase or decrease the free space) 50% x 26% = 13% free space. Add to this another 10%-15% above the ball charge for total of 23% ...
Read MoreMill Filling Degree = (Volume of the mill charge / Internal volume of the mill) x . For example, if the internal volume of the mill is 100 cubic meters and the volume of the charge is 35 cubic meters, then the mill filling degree would be: Mill Filling Degree = (35 / 100) x = 35%. This means that 35% of the mill's internal volume is ...

Read MoreThe ball charge is a function of the bulk fraction of the SAG mill volume (Jb) occupied by balls; the ore retained in the mill is the result of the volumetric filling which depends on the ore size distribution (specially the % +6″ and the % −6″ +1″), on the rotational speed (N/Nc) and on the solid concentration by weight fraction inside ...
Read MoreThis was we knew the precise weight of the original ball and the weight after, say 1-3 months. We also measured the ball charge inside the ball mill before we started the trial and when the trial ended. We tried to control the ball charge constant throughput the trial. All other relevant operating parameters were also recorded.
