Based on the energy expended in the ball mill, the production rate of new product size material (tonnes/h) equals the amount produced per unit of energy applied (tonnes/kwh) times the rate at which energy is applied (kwh/h). The rate at which energy is applied is the power draw of the ball mill. If we then define the production per unit, of ...

Demerits: 1. High Energy Consumption: Ball mills often require high energy input for the grinding process, making them less energy-efficient compared to some other milling techniques. 2. Wear and Tear: The grinding media and liners experience wear, requiring regular maintenance and replacement. 3.

The PTFI mills treat ore from the Grasberg (open pit) and Deep Ore Zone (underground) deposits, and recover gold contained in copper concentrate via flotation and gravity circuits. Since SAG ball-mill circuits represent the single largest type of gold milling comminution circuits, such circuits will be the focus of this chapter.

We offer them with either a hammer mill or a ball mill. Our 4-5 tph system comes with a ball mill only. The hammer mill version of our turn-key ore processors is less initial cost, but higher maintenance cost ($10-15/ton, plus down time). It will produce ground material with 70% passing a 30 mesh screen and 50% passing a 50 mesh screen.

For example, the ball mill circuit was operated with circulating loads of up to 500 %, while that of the primary comminution was only 50 %. The level of the circuit loads was also reflected in the electrical power consumed by the two grinding units. While the total grinding capacity was only utilised to 85 %, the ball mill already absorbed 17.4 ...

Ball mills have been successfully run at speeds between 60 and 90 percent of critical speed, but most mills operate at speeds between 65 and 79 percent of critical speed. Rod mills speed should be limited to a maximum of 70% of critical speed and preferably should be in the 60 to 68 percent critical speed range.
