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).

ity and power source, influence SAG mill selection. SAG mill drives There are two types of SAG mill drives. Power is transmitted to the grind-ing mill either through a pinion and ring Dan B.

3.3 Ball Mill Design The ball mill designs also follow the Bond/Rowlings method with comparison with other methods. Again the method of use is the same 3.4 SAG/BM Combined design This is the combined model of the SAG and BM models. The difference is that a provision in the BM model allows for the fact that finished product is in the BM feed.

 — A SAG (Semi-Autogenous Grinding) mill is a giant rotating cylinder filled with grinding media and the ore being reduced. As the mill rotates, the grinding media lifts and the impact crushes the feed material. SAG mill control refers to the practice of managing the mill load, which is the amount of material inside the mill at any given time.

The methods used to design SAG mills and SAG grinding circuits have been significantly upgraded in the last eight years. Direct measurements of SAG mill and ball mill pinion energy requirements are now available as test results from SAGDesign testing (patented technology). This fact puts the

 — The designs of autogenous and semi-autogenous (SAG) grindings mills are described followed by the description of their methods of operation in grinding circuits involving crushers and ball mills. Methods of estimating SAG mill volumes, mill charges, feed size and power consumptions and optimum speeds of rotation during operation are …

The first example of using an agitated vessel and grinding media for comminution was in 1922 when Szegvari stirred a gallon can full of pebbles to rapidly disperse a sulphur suspension [19].This was developed into the first 'stirred ball mill' by Klein and Szegvari in 1928 [20].This prototype was refined into the Attritor mill, a low tip speed (3–5 m/s [21]) …

 — As semi-autogenous (SAG) mills become increasingly larger in size, the design of SAG mill liners has been more and more important, and the appropriate liners would enhance mill efficiency and performance. The replaceable liners are mounted inside the mill and exposed to media and/or the material being ground.

 — SAG mill liner development draws primarily on practical experience from SAG milling operations supported by computer-based modeling of charge motion in SAG mills and on established good design practice. Liner design needs to respond to the process aspects of mill liner action that are critical to good SAG mill performance, i.e., the impact …

SAG Mill Trommel Screens The SAG mill trommel screen provides a simple mechanism to classify large volumes of mill product. Many designers and mill operators believe that the benefits of simplicity and the ability to handle throughputs in excess of 5 000 tph of solids make trommels the preferred equipment for this application.

The ROM SAG mill circuit—a brief description The typical ROM SAG mill circuit is depicted in Figure 1. The circuit is usually closed with either a screen or, more commonly, a cyclone for product size classification. The focus of control can be divided into two parts, viz. the mill and the cyclone. The importance of cyclone performance should ...

20MW). Selection of SAG mill dimensions and operating parameters is a complex problem and suffice it to say here that it is advisable in the design to provide operating flexibility to increase power demand. Design parameters chosen for the Cadia SAG mill are shown the following table. Table 2 : Cadia SAG Mill Design Parameters

Starkey has published results of a number of design case failures where undersized SAG mills were used to save a few million dollars in the price of the SAG mill, leading to production losses of $100's of millions after start up. Also, mill design testing with 2 competitive methods in one

Selecting Optimum Liner Design • For friable ore = High throughput (lower SAG mill load) – Design objective = maintain optimum SAG mill load – Requires lower operable speed range to maintain load – Select liners for life (i.e. high face angle, high lifters) – Longer liner life • For competent ore = low throughput (high SAG mill load)

 — Design of AG/SAG Mills. Since the breakage of ore in AG/SAG mills is mostly due to impact on particles and media from a height, these mills generally have a large diameter-to-length (D/L) ratio. However, this ratio varies and mills with large length-to-diameter ratio are also in use, e.g., in South Africa.
