Introduction: The ball mill is a tumbling mill that uses steel balls as grinding media. Ball mills can be used in wet or dry systems for bulk and continuous milling, and are most widely used in small or largescale ore beneficiation plant. Dry grinding: suitable for materials that react with water, such as building stones such as cement and marble.
