The product of the SAG mill with the current liner, during the first three months, has a P80 (size in which 80% of material passing) of 165 μm (average for three months) which is coarser than that of the proposed liners. Thus, for the second set of simulations, throughput of the proposed liner is increased to achieve the same P80 as the ...

(EGL) SAG mill driven by a 24,000 kW gearless drive. The SAG mill feeds two FLSmidth ball mills each 26 ft. in diameter × 40 ft. long (EGL), each driven by a 16,400 kW drive. The SAG mill is one of the largest volumetric capacity SAG mills in the world and represented the first 40 ft. SAG mill in Peru (Garcia Villanueva, 2013 [1]).

the mill fill level ratio, and the steel ball ratio. This method simulates the particles size, mill power, and qualified particles quality of crushed particle, which reveal the grinding strength and energy consumption of the SAG mill. In this paper, the grinding changes of a SAG mill under di erent parameter conditions are explored.

Common convention generally refers to highaspect ratio mills as SAG mills (with diameter to effective grinding length ratios of 3:1 to 1:1), lowaspect ratio mills (generally, a mill with a significantly longer length than diameter) are also worth noting.

SAG mills use a combination of steel balls and rock particles as grinding media, while AG mills use only the ore itself. Both types of mills are used for grinding ore in mineral processing operations, but SAG mills are larger in size and can grind larger quantities of ore. AG mills, on the other hand, are smaller and are typically used for ...

INTRODUCTION Mineral processing operations present many challenges for automatic process control due to variations in unmeasured ore properties, material transport delays, and nonlinear response characteristics. Control of SemiAutogenous Grinding (SAG) mill weight is an example of an important process that exhibits many of these aspects.

The energy directly spent in minerals comminution was about 2% globally in the year 2000 (Fuerstenau and Han, 2003). As one important part of the comminution process, AG/SAG mills are widely used for primary grinding in minerals processing. But AG/SAG mills are inefficient to break certain size particles because of their inherent breakage ...
