In the prerequisite module entitled Work Index Efficiency you have learned about work index analysis to define overall grinding circuit efficiency In rod milling you can use work index analysis to relate design and operating variables to overall circuit efficiency However you cannot use work index analysis for the same purpose on ball mill.Calculate the operating work index for the circuit b Circuit feed samples taken at the same time were sent for Bond work index testing The rod mill test gave RWilab of 14 5 kWh t −1 and a ball mill work index BWilab of 13 8 kWh t −1.
Read MoreMethods for assessing the energy consumption of the Bond Ball Mill are discussed • The average reduction in Work Index of HPGR products was 1 9 kWh t • A similar magnitude of reduction was observed in the Size Specific Energy • Ball milling efficiency can vary significantly independently of HPGR operation.
Read MoreBall mills 5 5 m (18 ft) in diameter and larger tend to use energy delivered to the mill less efficiently than smaller diameter mills particularly when the large mills carry 40 by volume ball charges This paper will explore factors used in scaling up ball mills showing where the advantages of one factor can possibly be negated by another factor The paper will propose possible operating.

Read MoreIn order for the ball mill to perform normal grinding operations its working speed must be less than the critical speed Ball mills generally work in a “dropped” state There are many working speeds to achieve this working state but there must be the most favorable working speed 1 If the rotating speed is low the ball in the ball mill.
