Ball Mills or Rod Mills in a complete range of sizes up to 10′ diameter x 20′ long, offer features of operation and convertibility to meet your exact needs. They may be used for pulverizing and either wet or dry grinding systems. ... The parameter Wi, known as the work index of the ore, is obtained from batch bench tests first devised by ...
The Bond work index, Wi, is defined in a Bond ball mill on the samples of standard size − + 0 mm. In practice, it is possible to find materials of nonstandard size that are finer than mm. In this work, a procedure for the calculation of the Bond work index is suggested for cases when the Bond grindability test is conducted on ...
Use them to mill soft, hard, brittle and fibrous materials, either in a wet or dry state. With slightly larger barrel volumes than the Essa ball mill series, rod mills are ideal for larger and more coarse materials. Rod charges and an acoustic safety enclosure for the rotating barrel are supplied as standard.
For ball mill, Bond (1958) was proposing an empirical formula giving the top size of balls (makeup balls) DM function of the feed size xG (80% passing size µm), the ore true specific gravity sg, the ore Bond Work Index Wi (kWh/st), the fraction of critical speed fc and the inside mill diameter D (m):
For the ball mill grindability test, the work index is calculated from the following revised equation (in short tons): where: Pi = sieve size tested (microns) Gpb = ball mill grind ability Wi, P F have the same meanings as in the top equation. Equipment required: Laboratory ball mill, cm x cm with following ball charge: Agitator ...

use a rod mill F80 of 16,000 µm and a rod mill P80 of 1,000 µm. Note that—in order for no correction factor for ball mill product fineness to apply—the ball mill circuit P80 should be no less than approximately 70 µm (Bond, 1962). This Bond Efficiency determination should not be applied to cir
The reason for this variation in ball mill work index is because the ore at Mt. Milligan has an intrinsic exponent of in the 100 µm to 200 µm size range, not the exponent empirically measured by F. Bond. The work index increase between 100 µm and 76 µm is due to a porphyritic grain size that causes a spike in energy
grams per revolution (Gbp) is the ball mill grindability. The ball mill work index, Wi (kWh/short ton) is calculated from the following equation (Bond 1961):1 The mill should be cleaned by either blowing air into it or wiping the interior with a cloth and or brush. The FC Bond ball mill is now ready for the next sample.

Size reduction. Zeki Berk, in Food Process Engineering and Technology, 2009. Energy consumption. As a rule, size reduction operations are heavy in energy consumption (Loncin and Merson, 1979; Hassanpour et al., 2004).As an example, the cost of energy is the single largest item in the total cost of wheat milling. Milling of one bushel (approx. 27 kg) of wheat requires kwh of electric ...
A Bond Ball Mill Work Index test is a standard test for determining the ball mill work index of a sample of ore. It was developed by Fred Bond in 1952 and modified in 1961 (JKMRC CO., 2006). This index is widely used in the mineral industry for comparing the resistance of different materials to ball milling, for estimating the energy required ...

The ball mill is powered by a fairly robust 12V DC motor salvaged from a junked printer. It had a pulley for a finetoothed belt on it. It was left in place and it seems to drive the heavy round rubber belt well without slipping. The motor was mounted using screws on only one side, which were deliberately left loose. This allows the motor to ...
The ability to simulate the Bond work index test also allows examination of truncated ball mill feed size distributions on the work index. For grinding circuits where the feed to a ball mill is sent directly to the classifier and the cyclone underflow feeds the ball mill (see Figure ), a question arises as to whether this practice will alter the ball mill work index (BW i) of the material ...

The Bond rod mill work index (Wi RM, or RWi) conducted from a feed size of approximately 10 mm to a product size on the order of 1 mm. The Bond crushing (impact) work index (Wi C, CWi, LEIT or IWi) conducted ...

The FC Bond Work Index Test Ball Mill was designed by F. C. Bond for use in determining the Bond Index, a measure of grindability and power required for grinding applications. The FC Bond Mills are used in laboratories throughout the world. A copy of Fred C. Bond's Method of Crushing and Grinding for determination of the Bond Index is included with each mill.
You need a twostage solution, first stage opencircuit mill and then second stage closedcircuit mill. First stage, will be broken into two parts as well, you use a Bond rod mill work index for the coarse component of the ore (+ mm) and the Bond ball mill work index for the fine component ( mm).
The Work Index is used when determining the size of the mill and grinding power required to produce the required ore throughput in a ball mill. 2. Procedure Bond Ball Mill Grindability The sample was crushed to passing 6 mesh (), from this a 700 cc volume was measured and weighed to be used as feed for the Bond Mill.
Grinding Studies. Two kinds of mills, BBM and LBM, were used to achieve the desired P 80 passing percentage of 150 μm with an acceptable range of hematite liberation (> 75%) at optimum grinding time. The BBM is a standard ball mill having a length and diameter of 300 mm × 300 mm with smooth liner as shown in Fig. rotating drum is attached to a gearbox and has adjustable speed knob.
Cleaning and Storing of Ball Mill Charge after the Bond Work Index Procedure is done: Add about 500 g of silica sand into the mill containing the ball charge. Seal the mill. Rotate for 20 revolutions to clean. Empty the mill charge and sand into the ball try once grinding is complete. Clean out the mill using a brush. Put the lid on the mill.
Power drawn at the pinion is 448 kW, kWh/tonne (SAG mill) and 570 kW, kWh/tonne (ball mill) when processing mtph, for a total of kWh/tonne or % above the conventional estimate. A ball charge volume which is lower than those tested has been selected in order to minimize wear.
Bond estimated the amount of wear in terms of kilograms per kWh based on the abrasion index, A;,, Wet Ball Mill = kg kWh = (A ) ; Dry Ball Mill = kg / kWh = i ; Replacement Ball Size. Rowland and Kjos proposed the use of their equation for the determination of the initial and replacement media size.
The charge is milled with the standard Bond ball mill for a set time. A particle size analysis is performed on the feed and ground product, and a modified work index is calculated using a proprietary model. The Mod Bond results must be calibrated against sufficient standard Bond ball mill work indices, typically 10% of the total.
Therefore, we estimated the resistance of the soil samples to ball milling in terms of specific power consumption for grinding. This was done by means of the Bond Ball Mill Standard test [24][25 ...
The effect of ball milling on the crystallinity index of cellulose was also studied by Ahmad and coworkers. 26 They treated crystalline cellulose in a planetary ball mill at 600 rpm for 2 hours and studied the differences between the starting material and the final product by a range of techniques including FTIR, Xray diffraction, SEM and ...
The Bond Ball Mill Grindability Test (Bond, 1952, 1961) gives the Bond Ball Mill Work Index. This Index expresses the resistance of a material to ball milling; the higher the value of the Bond Ball Mill Work Index, the more difficult it is to grind the material using a ball mill. This Index is widely used in the mineral industry for:
Feed Size: Designed feed size of the ball mill was 12 mm. But to underground crusher problem we received 15mm and above. Cyclone apex life 15 days, causing high recirculation loads, reducing ball mill throughput. Cyclone having surging effect. Pulp density inside ball mill high due to damaged feed pipe of 2'' replaced by 1''.

Based on the standard procedure defined by Bond, the ball mill work index is determined by simulating a closed cycle dry grinding in a laboratory Bond ball mill until a stable circulating load of 250% is established (Bond, 1949, Bond, 1952, Bond, 1961). The ball mill work index is determined by Eq. (10). The recommendation is the ball mill ...
