The current crushing setup is operating at 15 tonnes per hour which is low compared to their production rate such that ore from the ground is piling up. This paper addresses the critical design parameters that will increase the crushing capacity of the plant to 35 tonnes per hour.
Ball mill: Ball mills are the most widely used one. Rod mill: The rod mill has the highest efficiency when the feed size is <30mm and the discharge size is about 3mm with uniform particle size and light overcrushing phenomenon. SAG mill: When the weight of the SAG mill is more than 75%, the output is high and the energy consumption is low ...
The HPGR-ball mill circuit when grinding to 75 um compared to 160 um used an extra 4.6 kWh/mt, but for the SABC circuit it only used an extra 1.8 kWh/mt. The reported SABC circuit power for the 160 μm grind size was based on actual site data. JKSimMet was used to fit a model to site DCS data. Thus, there was considerable scope to reduce the ...

calculation (GMG, 2015), with the rod mill taking 25% and the crushing work index 5%. Newmont's operations cover the full range of the BWi energy curve, with Mine 7 the most competent ore and Mine 10 the least. However, all of these ores showed a much higher drop weight index (DWi) than would be expected from their Bond ball milling work indices.
The following process description is based upon a ball mill used in the hard rock mining industry for liberating minerals from ore, but the operating principle for ball mills used in other industries is the same. Crushed ore is fed to the ball mill through the inlet; a scoop (small screw conveyor) ensures the feed is constant.
was determined by deducting the installed ball mill pinion power of 7.95 kWh/t from the maximum overall circuit power of 16.7 kWh/t to give 8.75 kWh/t. Overall power for the comminution circuit (SAG plus ball mills) base on a maximum ball mill Wi …

The advent of harder ores presented a problem for the operation, but Antamina technical and management staff worked with PTI, and following the initial optimization of operating strategies in the mine and plant, mill throughput while treating hard ores increased from 2,750 tph to an average of 3,600 tph.
Hydrocyclone overflow advances to the Rougher 1 flotation circuit at 45% solids by weight. The ball mills were designed to operate at a 30–35% ball charge using 76 mm diameter steel balls and with a circulating load of approximately 300%. These conditions were adjusted by the operations, now showing use of a 30% ball charge.
1. When the diameter of the ball mill is less than 3200mm, its conventional configuration is using rolling bearing instead of bush sliding bearing, energy saving 10% - 20%; 2. When the diameter of the ball mill is more than 2700mm, its conventional configuration is using slow driving device for installing liner and maintenance; 3.
The above confirms that the design BWI for the primary ball mill is between 15 kWh/t and 18.2 kWh/t. As will be shown later, for sizing the primary mill motor the Bond method is used. The design Bond Work Indices for the primary and secondary ball mills are 16.5 kWh/t and 20.5 kWh/t respectively.

For overflow ball mills, the charge should not exceed 45% of the mill volume . For grate discharge mills, the charge should occupy about 50% of the mill volume . Bond developed a relationship that can be used to determine the percent charge by volume as a function of the vertical height above the charge, He, and the radius of the mill, R, i.e.,
This ball mill is typically designed to grind mineral ores and other materials with different hardness, and it is widely used in different fields, such as ore dressing, building material field, chemical industry, etc. Due to the difference of its slurry discharging method, it is divided to two types: grid type ball mill and overflow type ball mill.

20' EGL SAG mill, a Raptor 900 pebble crusher and two 24' x 39'6" ball mills. Each mill is equipped with a 2 x 8500HP dual pinion drive system. The plant was designed to process 1585 h mtpof SAG feed. From startup, the mill struggled to meet the required production rates. Over time, a major initiative that involved
the ball mill have to be less than 12mm and they must have the right shape for the ball mill to operate at optimum conditions. Preferably a diameter of 6mm is perfect and will result in the ball mill operating at maximum capacity. Currently the ball mill is being fed 12mm diameter products. The shape of the output product is also important.
