What's the Difference Between SAG Mill and Ball Mill

The biggest characteristic of the sag mill is that the crushing ratio is large. The particle size of the materials to be ground is 300 ~ 400mm, sometimes even larger, and the minimum particle size of the materials to be discharged can reach 0.1 mm. The calculation shows that the crushing ratio can reach 3000 ~ 4000, while the ball mill's ...

SAG Mills Archives

AG and SAG mills are now the primary unit operation for the majority of large grinding circuits, and form the basis for a variety of circuit configurations. SAG circuits are common in the industry based on: High single-line capacities (leading to capital efficiency) The ability to mill a broad range of ore types in various …. Read more.

Time delay neural network modeling for particle size in SAG mills

This paper represents that the time delay neural network model was developed to predict the feed particle sizes of 0.5, 2, and 4 in. of a semi-autogenous grinding mill. A nonlinear autoregressive exogenous model was employed to forecast the time-series model in networks with 300, 350, 400, 450, and 500 iterations and …

SAG vs. AG Mills: Understanding the Key Differences

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 ...

Unlock SAG mill capacity with process control optimisation

The instrumentation installed on a SAG mill is integral to control. For example, the mill load and noise sensors are instruments that provide essential information for an optimized SAG mill operation. Insufficient understanding of the ore characteristics and feed composition can result in an ineffective SAG mill operation.

Choosing a SAG Mill to Achieve Design Performance

It is an approximation or a best guess based on limited data. This equation is: y = 225 – 1.94 x (1) Where x = the load in the mill expressed as measured % by volume and y = kg/h of feed. This information is based on observed throughput reductions caused by loading the 3-ft. SAG mill to over 26% by volume.
