The size distribution of the balls in the mill charge appears to have no significant effect upon the size distribution of the product, nor upon the rate of grinding, provided that the size distribution of the balls is not too unreasonably chosen. Thus, no

In this article, alternative forms of optimizing the milling efficiency of a laboratory scale ball mill by varying the grinding media size distribution and the feed material particle size distribution were investigated. Silica ore was used as the test material. The experimental parameters that were kept constant in this investigation

parameters studied in this work are particle size, number of balls, time of grinding , particle density, and speed of the ball mill (rpm). An attempt has been made to develop correlation for the performance of the ball mill by correlating these variables with the grindability on the basis of dimensional analysis approach as well as

Acoustic estimation of the particle size distributions of sulphide ores in a laboratory ball mill by C. Aldrich and D.A. Theron*. Synopsis. The acoustic signals emitted from a laboratory-scale ball mill were used for the estimation of the comminution of two complex sulphide ores, viz. Merensky and UG2 ores from the Bushveld.

Austin (1964) proposed that for significant reductions in size, the energy required to mill material is inversely related to the particle size of the product, i.e. . particle size distributions that can be achieved compared to ball and rod milling. In most beneficiation processes too much fine material, normally expressed as – 38 μm

Ball size distribution inside an industrial mill was analysed in terms of shapes and sizes. Load behaviour, mill power and breakage as affected by media shapes were studied in a pilot laboratory mill.

By varying the solid :liquid ratio of the charges the mean particle size of the product was changed, and shown to be a linear function of the proportion of solid in the charge.

A ball mill with a classifier will produce a fine product but the particle size distribution curve is very wide and when the correct average size is reached the number of fines is usually too high. Ball mills can be lined with ceramics to reduce contamination from abrasive products but there is constant wear of the media, which

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 make-up ball charge. The objective function was to find the ball mix that guarantees maximum production of the floatable size
