Aug 02, 2013· In Grinding, selecting (calculate) the correct or optimum ball size that allows for the best and optimum/ideal or target grind size to be achieved by your ball mill is an important thing for a Mineral Processing Engineer AKA Metallurgist to do. Often, the ball used in ball mills is oversize “just in case”. Well, this safety factor can cost you much in recovery and/or mill liner wear and
This formula calculates the critical speed of any ball mill. Most ball mills operate most efficiently between 65% and 75% of their critical speed. Photo of a 10 Ft diameter by 32 Ft long ball mill in a Cement
Ball Size as Initial Charge. Commercial ball sizes 10 150 mm; Number, size and mass of each ball size depends on mill load and whether or not the media is being added as the initial charge. For the initial chargin of a mill, Coghill and DeVaney (1937) defined the ball size as a function of the top size of the feed, i.e., d↓V = 0.40
The ball mill is a tumbling mill that uses steel balls as the grinding media. The length of the cylindrical shell is usually 1–1.5 times the shell diameter (Figure 8.11).The feed can be dry, with less than 3% moisture to minimize ball coating, or slurry containing 20–40% water by weight.
Shape balls, beads and satellites satisfy the bulk of our customers’ requirements, but we also source highly specialized shapes like ballcones and diagonals Diameter depending on the material, ranging from 0.05 mm to 2 mm for small media mills, up to 1/8” to 1” for traditional Attritors and up to ½” to 2” for ball mills
