AG/SAG mill modelling for predicting how rock breaks inside the mill. From this description the model can predict what the throughput, power draw and product size distribution will be. The standard JK drop-weight test normally needs about 75 kgs of material and hence its use is normally precluded for small drill core samples. However, the DWi is

Fuller-Traylor SAG/AG Mills range in size from 4.3m through 12.2m in diameter with powers as high as 28,000 kW. Our team of product engineers continually improves SAG/AG Mill designs in order to provide the most …
SAG is the abbreviated form for Semi-Autogenous Grinding Mill. This type of Mill is used for grinding large fragments into small pieces. Pieces are then used for further processing. The SAG mills are generally used in …
Morrel (Morrell, 2004) extracted an empirical equation through laboratory tests for the specific energy of autogenous and semi-autogenous mills. It is stated that the mill throughput can be obtained by dividing the power draw of an existing mill by the specific energy calculated by this empirical equation.
An Autogenous Milling defined as used in this study, the term Autogenous milling means a process in which the size of the constituent pieces of a supply of rock is reduced in a tumbling mill ...
Autogenous mills range up to 12 meters in diameter. The length-to-diameter ratios in the previous table are for normal applications. For primary grinding, the ratio could vary between 1:1and 1.8:1. ... Large to small from the feed end. Some mills have a conical section. In the conical section near the discharge, fine particles preferentially ...
Ball mills vary greatly in size, from large industrial ball mills measuring more than 25 ft. in diameter to small mills used for sample preparation in laboratories. ... Semi-autogenous mills are basically the same autogenous mills, but with the addition of balls, similar to those in ball mills. Semi-autogenous mills have larger diameter-to ...
Since the power of the autogenous tumbling mill is relatively small, it is appropriate to choose dynamic and static pressure bearing. The ball bearing liner is made of lead-based bearing alloy, and the back of the bearing is formed with a waist drum to form a contact centering structure, with the advantages of flexible movement. ...
