In case the feed to ball mill was equal to 1200 Mg/h, it resulted in a reduction of 60 Mg/h of the weight of coarse particles in circulation. It also enabled the processing of a larger feed size without the risk of balls being thrown from the mill.

WhatsApp: +86 18203695377In the case of ball mills, the axial dispersion is higher and the mean residence time is shorter than those in rod mills. In rod mills, the axial dispersion is lower—close to plug flow ( Lynch, 1977 )—as well as selective breakage (compared with ball mills) produce a narrower size distribution product than that of ball mills.

WhatsApp: +86 18203695377The breakage and liberation of minerals are the key to fluidized mining for minerals. In the ball milling process, steel balls function as not only a grinding action implementer but also energy carrier to determine the breakage behavior of ores and the production capacity of the mill. When ground products present a much coarse or much fine particle size distribution, the separation process ...
