A method and a system are disclosed for maintaining optimum throughput in a grinding circuit of the type in which fresh ore is fed to a rod mill and the ground ore from the rod mill, together with the ground ore from a ball mill operated in a reversed circuit, are combined in a pump box and pumped to a cluster of hydrocyclone classifiers.

An improved method using less mass compared to the Bond Ball Mill Work Index test. The JK Bond Ball Mill (JKBBM) test, is a locked cycle grindability test conducted using a standard laboratory Bond Ball Mill with the same steel ball charge and material feed size ( passing 3.35 mm) as the Bond Ball Mill Work Index test.

The method is valid both for clinker grinding and for raw materials grinding. This method only gives a rough and initial idea for sizing a cement ball mill. To go ahead, a deeper study is necessary with ball mills suppliers or a specialized engineering office.

EF5BM=[ P80+10.3 1.145×P80] ( 3 ) The EF4 formula requires both the rod mill and ball mill work index (rod mill Wi is used to calculate the optimal feed size) and because this is a "single-stage ball mill" calculation, the F80 is actually the rod mill feed size (10,000 µm) from Table 1 and the P80 is the ball mill circuit product. The EF5 factor only applies below 75 µm to ball

The basic parameters used in ball mill design (power calculations), rod mill or any tumbling mill sizing are; material to be ground, characteristics, Bond Work Index, bulk density, specific ...

Ball mill: When the particle size of the product is less than 0.5mm, the grinding effect of the ball mill is greater than that of a rod mill of the same specification. SAG mill: The SAG mill has a wide range of feeding particle sizes and can process larger minerals, but at the same time, its output particle size is relatively larger.

Autogenous And Semiautogenous Mills Datasheet . AGSAG mills can accomplish the same size reduction work as two or stages of crushing and screening a rod mill and some or all of the work done by a ball mill All because of the range of mill sizes available AGSAG milling extends itself to many applications Benefits Circuit Design While the optimum circuit design …

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., dâ†"V = 0.40 K√F dB = ball size (cm) F = feed size (cm)

A series of pilot plant tests were run to compare roller press products to rod mill products in a simulated taconite flowsheet using magnet separation and closed circuit ball milling. Further investigation of a hybrid grinding system, roller press crushing followed by ball mill grinding, indicate that the combination may represent more » the ...

size F80 of 152 mm to 80% passing 1.7 mm, and a simple adjustment procedure in case the SAG product size needed to be adjusted. Bond rod and ball mill work indices are readily converted to pinion energy for rod and ball mills but not for SAG mills. Reproducibility, while not studied in this paper is clearly a part of the meaningfulness of the data

The basic parameters used in ball mill design (power calculations), rod mill or any tumbling mill sizing are; material to be ground, characteristics, Bond Work Index, bulk density, specific density, desired mill tonnage capacity DTPH, operating % solids or pulp density, feed size as F80 and maximum 'chunk size', product size as P80 and maximum and finally …

COMPARISON BETWEEN THE BOND METHOD (CLASSIC) AND THE DENVER METHOD The comparison between the Bond and Denver methods is made with the help of data presented from Rowland (1982). ]" problem: (Rod and Ball-mill circuit) Data: Rowland, 1982, pp. 427-429 Initial feed size 25 mm = 25000 ~(80% passing, 18 mm), product (80% passing, …

SUMMARY OF ORE CHARACTERIZATION TEST WORK METHODS AND POWER BASED MODELS When Bond first developed his comminution law, crushers, rod mills and ball mills were common equipment in the flowsheet. These tests were developed for the basis of scale-up of staged crush, rod and ball mill circuits (Bond, 1952).

Hence a rod mill generally precedes a ball mill in a grinding circuit especially where a fine size product is required. Ball Mills: -The final stages of comminution are performed in tumbling mills using steel balls as the grinding medium and so designated "ball mills." Since balls have a greater surface area per unit weight than rods, they are ...

mills, and use a rod mill feed size (F80) of 16,000 m and a rod mill µ product size of 1,000 m . Also note µ that in order for no correction factor for ball mill product fineness to apply, the ball mill circuit P80 should be no less than approximately 70 µm (See reference by Bond, 1962).

However, in this situation the ball mill has to supply this energy and it has a different (higher) work index than the crusher (ie the ball mill is less energy efficient than a crusher and has to input more energy to do the same amount of size reduction). Hence from equation 7, to crush to the ball mill circuit feed size (x. 2

The slope of the log-log plot of initial rate of for-mation, Kx. versus particle size (a linear plot of size in mesh being equivalent to a logarithmic plot of size in microns) is 0.61 and 0.63 for limestone ground in the ball mill and rod mill. respectively, and 0.87

Jean-Paul Duroudier, in Size Reduction of Divided Solids, 2016. 3.7.4 Performance. Rod mills are used in an open circuit between crushing and the ball mill. They often operate in wet and where the pulp contains up to 50% solid by mass. This machine is equally very applicable to dry where it could take a feed that has achieved 6% moisture.

The apparent difference in capacities between grinding mills (listed as being the same size) is due to the fact that there is no uniform method of designating the size of a mill, for example: a 5′ x 5′ Ball Mill has a working diameter of 5′ inside the liners and has 20 per cent more capacity than all other ball mills designated as 5′ x ...

Bond's method is widely used for predicting the energy requirement of crushers, rod and ball mills, while a number of other methodologies have been proposed for AG/SAG mills.
