This means that in operation, the pebble crusher remains in an intermittent operating state. The size of the ball mill is slightly undersized, which could explain why the circuit is unable to reach the designed product size (115 µm). Furthermore, the operating capacity of the ball mill has reached 90% capacity, running at near full load.

Today, the largest ball mill in operation is 8.53 m diameter and 13.41 m long with a corresponding motor power of 22 MW (Toromocho, private communications).
WhatsAppGet PriceGet A QuoteNormal Ball Mill and Grinding Circuit Operation After the grinding circuit has been brought up to normal operating conditions, the operator must monitor the various process variables and alarms. Most of these variables are monitored in the mill control room, however, the operator is also required to sample and analyse process streams and read local indicators.
