This present work focuses on DEM simulations of a scale laboratory planetary ball mill through DEM Altair software to optimize and modulate the milling parameters. The simulation results show a good agreement with the experiments. The numerical model is shown to be a promising tool for the knowledge of dry milling in a planetary ball mill.

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.
WhatsApp: +86 18203695377The starting point for ball mill media and solids charging generally starts as follows: 50% media charge. Assuming 26% void space between spherical balls (nonspherical, irregularly shaped and mixedsize media will increase or decrease the free space) 50% x 26% = 13% free space. Add to this another 10%15% above the ball charge for total of 23% ...

The minimum sample requirement for the rod and ball index tests is 25 kg of either mm (1/2) crushed rock or split NQ (50mm dia.) drillcore. For the ball mill work index test alone, only 10 kg of material is required.

In the case of such modification, the SAG mill product is coarser compared with the corresponding relatively coarse feed size distribution, thus resulting in a higher energy requirement for ball milling in SABSemiautogenous ball mill circuits.
WhatsApp: +86 18203695377Ball milling is a mechanical technique that is broadly used to grind powders into fine particles [134141]. The reactants are generally broken apart using solvent molecules in the traditional method; but in ball milling, reactants are broken by using mechanical forces. The term mechanochemistry has been introduced very recently [142].
