1. Introduction. The concrete aggregate industry has historically limited particle size distribution (PSD) analysis, for fine particles, to simply determining the mass fraction of particles passing a sieve with square openings of minimum edge length mm (according to EN 9331 [1]) or mm (according to ASTM C136 [2]).The European industry standard method intended for analysing the ...

Although this technique only requires a small sample size, sampling errors due to nonstandard distributions or morphology effects can be exacerbated, especially at the tails of the distribution (high and low length/width aspect ratios). Imaging is another commonly used approach, for particle size measurement [13]. It involves capturing and ...

Ball Size vs. Grindability. It has been recognized that the grindability of an ore in a ball mill is a function of both feed and mill parameters: Work index, W i; Largest particle size and size distribution; Density of solids and slurry; Mill diameter; Rotational speed; Rowland and Kjos (1980) defined the largest ball size needed based on these ...

Abstract. Ball size distribution is commonly used to optimise and control the quality of the mill product. A simulation model combining milling circuit and ball size distribution was used to determine the best makeup ball charge. The objective function was to find the ball mix that guarantees maximum production of the floatable size range ( ...

The ball load was 455 stainless steel balls one inch in diameter, having a total weight of 30 kg. The particle size distribution was observed after 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 150, 200 and 300 ball mill revolutions. The energy input was calculated from the net torque (corrected for the torque for the empty mill) and the number of revolutions.
