Some require a mill entry while others can be made from outside of the mill. 2.1. Counting lifters. A popular method for determining filling requires counting the number of exposed shell lifter rows. The level may vary along the mill axis, therefore an average of separate counts made at the feed end, middle and discharge end can be used.
به خواندن ادامه دهیدWe can calculate the steel charge volume of a ball or rod mill and express it as the % of the volume within the liners that is filled with grinding media. While the mill is stopped, the charge volume can be gotten by measuring the diameter inside the liners and the distance from the top of the charge to the top of the mill.
به خواندن ادامه دهیدBall Mills can be supplied with either ceramic or rubber linings for wet or dry grinding, for continuous or batch type operation, in sizes from 15″ x 21″ to 8′ x 12′. High density ceramic linings of uniform hardness male possible thinner linings and greater and more effective grinding volume.
