Ball Mill Loading - Dry Milling - Paul O. Abbe

Charging a Dry Mill – The general operation of a grinding mill is to have the product impacted between the balls as they tumble. If there are insufficient solids in the mill then the media will strike itself and generate excessive media wear. If too much product then the solid may buffer the impact too much.

PERI™ AutoCharge Mill Grinding Ball Charging System

When charging a grinding mill, the standard practice is to dump tons of balls into the mill at once and replace them somewhere between once a shift and once a week. It's an inefficient practice that wastes energy, impacts product particle size distribution and risks breakage of mill linings and grinding media.

Effect of ball and feed particle size distribution on the ...

Khumalo et al., 2006 postulated that generally larger sized grinding media would break larger particles quicker but a finer product would be obtained by use of smaller balls. However, use of smaller grinding media is believed to support abrasion and attrition (Katubilwa et al., 2011) which are energy inefficient breakage mechanisms .

Grinding Balls & Rods - Mineral Processing & Metallurgy

For the first stage of grinding, media will generally be in the 4″ to 2″ size (in some cases as high as 5″). In secondary finer grinding the initial charge will begin at around 3″ and in the case of balls will grade down to about ¾". Extremely fine grinding will dictate the use of 1½" and smaller balls. Grinding media is the working part of a mill.
