Autogenous mills use ore exclusively as their grinding media but if hardness and abrasiveness of the ore does not lend itself well to full AG milling then a small charge of steel balls (6 to 15%) is added to assist in size reduction. This is known as a Semi-Autogenous (SAG) mill. AG/SAG mills bring about size reduction by a combination of ...

The two 22.5 MW AG mills, 11.6 metres (m) (38 feet [ft]) diameter by 13.7 m (45 ft) long, are the largest mills by volume operating in the world. Each AG mill feeds a 10 MW pebble mill via a unique coupling of flow and pebble feed with the pebble mill product recycling to the spiral classifier that is closed with the AG mill.
Autogenous mills with large diameter to length ratios and a discharge grate acting as an internal screen classifier are considered. The effect of addition of some percentage of steel balls is ...

Semi-autogenous grinding uses a minimal ball charge in the range of 6-15% while autogenous grinding uses ore only. SAG and AG Mills operate by lifting ore/grinding …
Bearing designs available include: These include: • Autogenous • Semi-Autogenous (SAG) • Ball • Rod • Pebble Mills These mills can be supplied individually or as a package depending on the requirements of the client. A large number of SAG Mills have been supplied to the mining industry, of which 25% are of the innovative open-end ...
Ball mills designed for long life and minimum maintenance overflow ball mill sizes range from 5 ft. x 8 ft. with 75 HP to 30' x 41' . and as much as 30,000 HP. Larger ball mills are available with dual pinion or ring …
Close circuiting autogenous and semi-autogenous mills is an energy efficient way of grinding and a number of operations have utilised this in the design of their comminution circuits. Owing to the large flow of slurry through the mill that results from operating this way the grates and pulp lifters have to be designed to cope. However, the literature has …

In order to solve the problem that the liners of Φ5.5 m×1.8 m SAG mill were easy to wear and fracture in a concentrator in Xinjiang. Firstly, the optimum structural parameters of cylinder liners were determined by the orthogonal test. Secondly, The discrete element method (DEM) was used to simulate the real operation of SAG mills. …
During autogenous grinding, ore can be broken through grinding or disintegration. If large lump ore is easy to disintegrate, the autogenous mill has too small quantity of large lump ore that can be used as grinding medium and too large quantity of medium or small sized ore. The hard-to-grind particles will accumulate to become hard …

Approximately 3000 tons of large lumps of ore with particle size in the range of 200–500 mm were transferred to the AG mill feed stockpile from another processing unit of the Sangan iron ore processing plant (Fig. 2 a).From this stockpile they are conveyed by a belt conveyor to the AG mill (Fig. 2 b), and the percentage of coarse-grained material …

SAG mill liner development draws primarily on practical experience from SAG milling operations supported by computer-based modeling of charge motion in SAG mills and on established good design practice. Liner design needs to respond to the process aspects of mill liner action that are critical to good SAG mill performance, i.e., …
The successful application of modelling and simulation in design and optimisation rests heavily on having a model which is lifelike. In the case of autogenous (AG) and semi-autogenous (SAG) mills this has provided a significant challenge to modellers, due in part to the interaction between feed characteristics and mill …
As the mill rotates, the feed material is lifted by the shell lining, and due to gravity, it falls down, resulting in material impact and breakage. This self-grinding process occurs in …
9.1. Introduction. Disintegration and size reduction of some ores is possible in tumbling mills without the aid of grinding media. Grinding mills in which comminution takes place without grinding aids are known as autogenous grinding (AG) mills or fully autogenous grinding (FAG) mills. These mills use large lumps of rock as the grinding …
Also, autogenous mills have grate discharges, so as to retain the coarse grinding media in the mill while dispatching the fine particles. The other benefits of using autogenous grinding include – reduction of metal wear, and elimination of secondary and tertiary crushing steps. Therefore, autogenous grinding offers more savings in capital and ...

Mill filling is an important operational parameter in a SAG mill circuit and by its control and optimisation it can produce significant improvements in production capacity and energy efficiency. However, it is industry practice to report mill load as the total output given by load cells, or kPa for systems based on lubrication bearing back pressure, rather than …
