Friction and wear of liner and grinding ball in iron ore ball mill

Introduction. An iron ore mill relies on the grinding and impact of grinding balls to complete iron ore crushing. The operating process of an iron ore mill is as follows: first, the ores are poured into the mill, and both the ores and the grinding balls are lifted by the lifting bar arranged on the wall of the cylinder body to a certain height, after which …

How Ball Mill Ore Feed Size Affects Tonnage & Capacity

Hard ore Work Index 16 = 100,000/65,000 = 1.54 kwh/t. For the purposes of this example, we will hypothesize that the the crushing index of the hard ore with the increased energy input of 1.54 kw/t reduces the ball mill feed size to 6,500 micrometers. As a result, the mill output will increase with this reduced size to approximately 77,000 tons ...
