WhatsApp: +86 18838072829The main difference between these two mills is the use of steel balls as grinding media, typically in the order of 612% in volume (Sbarbaro et al., 2005), in the SAG mills. With the addition of grinding media, the SAG mill has shown to be more flexible in operations than AG mills, since it allows the economic treatment of a wider variety of ...
WhatsApp: +86 18838072829When the SAG mill runs, ore particles entering the drum from one end of the drum are impacted, ground, and crushed from impacts of autogenous grinding media (mainly including steel balls), ore particles, and drum, and then discharged from the other end of the drum.

WhatsApp: +86 18838072829As one of the machines widely used in mining, a semiautogenous grinding (SAG) mill can significantly improve the roughing efficiency of rock. But the SAG mill still faces the obstacles of significant energy consumption and empirical operation parameters. In order to obtain the optimal operation parameters of a SAG mill, in this paper, the discrete element method (DEM) is used to simulate the ...

Trajectory analysis also ensures grinding media is not being over thrown onto mill liners where the impact can lead to breakage of balls and liners therefore minimising ...
WhatsApp: +86 18838072829As the SAG mill enters a stable operation state, the grinding system's charging behavior in the PHSP and SP grinding systems is different. As shown in Fig. 9, the shoulder and the head in the SAG mill containing polyhedral ore particles are slightly higher than that of the SAG mill containing only spherical particles.
