The final plan was to increase the ball charge in the SAG and ball mill to 10% v / v and 27% v / v, respectively; set the upper limit of the operating power in the ball mill to 5800 kW; use a TC Series crusher (without a power-/feed rate–controlling device, but with a feed bin) to crush pebbles for recirculation back to the SAG mill feed ...

Trends in der Minenindustrie

Typical types of mill used in ore beneficiation are autogenous (AG) and semi-autogenous (SAG) mills together with ball mills to, for example, obtain particle sizes smaller than 100 µm. One process variation that has become increasingly established in recent years is the combination of AG or SAG mill with a ball mill and a downstream agitated ...

Figure 1: Diagram of Miduk Copper Complex

Optimal Speed Control for a Semi-Autogenous Mill Based on

Therefore, SAG mills are favored by large mines and are becoming more and more widely used in the mineral processing industry [1,2]. A SAG mill has low speed and heavy load, which cause the energy consumption of grinding operation to be very high. It accounts for a large proportion of the electrical consumption across the plant .

SAG Mill

The SAG Mill is a machine added by Ender IO. It uses Micro Infinity (µI) to grind (or mill) items into their crushed variants, like Ores into Dusts. The SAG Mill has four output slots; recipes can have 1-4 different outputs, with different chances of obtaining those outputs. Uniquely, the SAG Mill can use Grinding Balls made from various materials to increase …

SAG Mill Grinding Circuit Design

AG mills (or SAG mills with low ball charges) are often used in single-stage grinding applications. Based on their higher throughput and coarser grind relative to AG mills, it is more common for SAG mills to …

SAG Mill Optimization using Model Predictive Control

Control of -SemiAutogenous Grinding(SAG) mill weight is an example of an important process that exhibits many of these aspects. Maintaining the SAG mill weight at the optimum value is critical for achieving maximum grind rate efficiency and mill production (Powell, M.S., van der Westhuizen, A.P., & Mainza, A.N. 2009).

AG

Current operational results show that the SAG mill is operating at 5% ball charge level by volume and is delivering a K80 800 micron product as predicted. Power drawn at the pinion is 448 kW, 13.617 kWh/tonne (SAG mill) and 570 kW, 17.325 kWh/tonne (ball mill) when processing 32.9 mtph, for a total of 30.942 kWh/tonne or 14.6% above …

Grinding & Classification Circuits

We have a overflow dry grinding ball mill grated discharge 2.4m x 1.5m, we use 40mm,25mm and 17mm ball sizes (high chrome steel) to mill manganese with a top size of 4800um, mill liners are stee... B Last replied to by Dewald

SAG Mill Ball Sizing

With high aspect ratio SAG mills total charge to ball charge ratio should be greater than 2 (up to 2.5) for a coarse mill feed (say F80 > 110 mm). If the mill feed size is fine, say 50 mm or 30 mm, then you are looking at a total charge to ball charge ratio of about 1.5-1.6. These are guidelines and may fluctuate a bit depending on the ...
