For a single size of make-up ball, the mass fractions in the mill within the size ranges are calculated from: (11) m k = d k u 4 − Δ − d k l 4 − Δ d max 4 − Δ − d min 4 − Δ where d k u and d k l represent the upper and lower boundaries of the ball size interval k, d max is the largest ball size in the mill, and d min is the smallest ball size in the mill which is still retained.
The following are factors that have been investigated and applied in conventional ball milling in order to maximize grinding efficiency: a) Mill Geometry and Speed – Bond (1954) observed grinding efficiency to be a function of ball mill diameter, and established empirical relationships for recommended media size and mill speed that take this

The effect of ball size on the particle size reduction has been investigated first for varying rotation speed of the container. Percent passing and size distributions of the milled Al 2 O 3 powder are shown in Fig. 1, Fig. 2, respectively, as a function of particle size for varying ball size.
More balls with small size results in fine powder. As a thumb rule powder to be milled should be taken as 25% of total ball weight. If the quantity of charge is very less then milling balls will
Porous magnesium/carbon nanofiber composites were produced using a powder metallurgic method to study the effect of ball milling time on their microstructure and hardness. Three ball milling times (240 min, 320 min, and 480 min) and two carbon nanofiber concentrations (0.05% and 1%) were utilized in the production of these porous composites. The increase of ball milling time led to the gradual

The effect of ball size distribution increased with increasing mill filling and for the mill filling of 35%, the ball size distribution had the maximum effect on the power draw. When the mill charge contained mono-sized balls, the ball flow regime inside the mill transited to the cataracting and impact breakage was the main breakage mechanism.
The variation of ball size in a planetary ball mill (PBM) was studied in terms of its effect on the specific impact energy of balls as a result of ball to ball and ball to vial collision calculated through a computer simulation. The mean crystallite size of calcium carbonate in the course of milling as well as the required time for obtaining a thoroughly formed calcium carbonate was also

An investigation was conducted to determine the effect of the ball diameter sizes on milling operation. A laboratory size ball mill was used with ball media of sizes 10 mm, 20 mm and 30 mm respectively. Quartz was the material used to perform the experiment and was arranged into 3 mono-sizes namely -8 mm +5.6 mm, -4 mm +2.8 mm and-2 mm +1.4 mm for the experiment. A mill run having a mixture of
The starting point for ball mill media and solids charging generally starts as follows: 50% media charge. Assuming 26% void space between spherical balls (non-spherical, irregularly shaped and mixed-size media will increase or decrease the free space) 50% x 26% = 13% free space. Add to this another 10%-15% above the ball charge for total of 23%
If it is also assumed that the mean overall values of S i for a mixture of balls is the weighted mean of S i values for each ball size, equations are derived for calculating this mean value. As an example, the results are used in a mill simulation to show the quantitative effect of different ball mixes in a two-compartment cement mill versus a uniform mix over the whole mill.
Often, the ball used in ball mills is oversize “just in case”. Well, this safety factor can cost you much in recovery and/or mill liner wear and tear. Here is your Ball Mill Design/Sizing Procedure.

A ball mill is an example of a comminution method which produces size reduction by both impact and attrition of particles. Ball mills consist of a hollow cylinder mounted such that it can be rotated on its horizontal longitudinal axis. Cylinder diameters can be greater than 3 m, although much smaller sizes are used pharmaceutically.

In this study, we investigate the effect of the ball size in a high-energy ball mill on the comminution rate and particle size reduction. High-energy ball milling at 2000 rpm produces ultrafine talc particles with a surface area of 419.1 m 2 /g and an estimated spherical diameter of 5.1 nm.

This study on the effects of particle filling and size on the ball load behaviour and power in a dry mill was initiated at the University of the Witwatersrand in 2003. The aim of the study was to make available a better understanding of the underlying causes in the different power draws that occur in mills when ore particles are being added to the ball load.

Fig. 8 shows that the small 10 mm ball size is superior in generating more material in the fines size class, from both feed sizes used. If an objective function was to maximize the production of fines e.g. in the cement industry, the A.R shows that use of smaller ball sizes would give superior results.

Influence of ball size distribution on milling ratesMilling rates were investigated for the two charge mixes. Then, the measured rates were compared to the predicted ones. At this point in time, it was also envisaged to compare the two distributions to understand what their respective behaviours could mean for actual grinding in the coal plant.
