The batch test is carried out in a laboratory mill of 304.8mm diameter x 101.6mm length, loaded with 15% steel balls of 31.8mm diameter. The SPI® test itself requires 2kg of ore with a top size of 19mm (3⁄4"), but a total of 10kg of 38.1mm (1-1⁄2") is generally preferred, which allows for the determination of.
In addition, after the mill is shut down for a long time, the slow-speed transmission device before starting the main motor can eliminate the eccentric load of the steel ball, loosen the consolidation of the steel ball and materials, ensure safe start, avoid overloading of the air clutch, and play a protective role.
Cable Material: The material properties of the cable, such as its modulus of elasticity and weight per unit length, significantly affect the sag and, consequently, the cable length calculation. Different materials, such as steel, aluminum, or composite materials, exhibit different sag characteristics under given loads and spans.

Let Jt be the fraction of the mill volume that is occupied by the total charge, Jb the fraction of the mill volume that is occupied by steel balls and E the voidage of the balls
Speed reducer efficiency: 98% 5440 Hp ÷ 0.98 = 5550 HP (required minimum motor output power). Therefore select a mill to draw at least 5440 Hp at the pinionshaft. Based upon the pilot plant test results, the …
The proposed method replaces the sag of the power line wire with an extension of the control sample and then an expansion of the attached chirped fiber Bragg grating. This paper presents the results of the first measurements made on real aluminum-conducting steel-reinforced wire, frequently used for power line construction.
The discrete element method (DEM) has been used extensively in simulating multiple interacting bodies undergoing relative motion and breakage. The key to the success of this method lies in correctly establishing the interaction rules and the associated contact parameters. In this paper, this is done by analyzing the impact behavior of a …

When estimating sag in a transmission line, there are two conditions: When all of the supports are at the same level; When support levels are not at the same level
Cytec Handbook. Why have a large circulation load:. If a product all finer than a certain critical size is required, the capacity of the ball mill is increased considerably by using it in closed circuit with a classifier and this increase is made still greater by increasing the circulating load in between the ball mill and the classifier (Fig. 70).
If it is coarse and hard materials, choose a larger steel ball; If it is fine and crunchy, choose a steel ball with a smaller diameter. In addition, the size and diameter of the steel ball and its ratio should be determined according to the process requirements, material properties, ball mill specifications and so on. 3.

Trommel grate aperture, pebble porting and crushing and rock load in the mill were the significant factors in determining the quantity of -150 micron fines in the trommel undersize (primary mill product). The ball load varied from zero per cent (for rock loads >650 kg) up to 12 per cent (for a rock load of 340 kg).
