اقرأ أكثرIf we instead focus on wet grinding, we should differentiate between stirred media grinding, which can be both vertical and horizontal, and tumbling mills with manufactured grinding bodies. A continuous grate-discharge tumbling mill with grinding balls does seldom have ball size below 20 mm since you then will have unacceptable media losses …
اقرأ أكثرIn this paper, the difference between ball mill grinding and stirred ball milling is discussed. A size-energy model is proposed for simulation of stirred ball milling. The product size distributions below 10 /~m from a stirred ball mill were simulated by the model satisfactorily. The model is simple and has only two parameters.

اقرأ أكثرStirred mills are becoming increasingly used for fine and ultra-fine grinding. This technology is still poorly understood when used in the mineral processing context. This makes process optimisation of such devices problematic. 3D DEM simulations of the flow of grinding media in pilot scale tower mills and pin mills are carried out in order to …
