calculations define the efficiency of a fine stage-crush ball mill circuit as 1.0 to 1.2 depending on ball mill feed size, and some SABC (SAG/ball mill/pebble crusher) circuits operating with an efficiency of 1.3-1.4 or higher on coarse feed. If the coarse feed size is reduced, the circuit efficiency will approach that of the stage-crush and ...

Pebble Crushing in SAG Mill Circuit
Whenever the feed to the test mill increased in size, the throughput would increase. The teed rate to the existing SAG mills at NSPC are controlled by mill power. A set-point for individual lines is established at from between 5000 KWH to 5450 KWH and the feed to the mill is automatically adjusted to maintain this power setting.

PRE-CRUSHING OF SAG FEED: FRIEND OR FOE
In the mineral processing sector, a common approach to expanding a SAG mill circuit is the addition of secondary or tertiary crushing to reduce the size of the mill feed. The addition of pre-crushing can increase the throughput of an existing SAG mill circuit by 10% to 30% or more, depending on the nature of the ore and the crushing

What's the Difference Between Ball Mill, Rod Mill and SAG Mill?
Ball mill： Ball mills are the most widely used one. Rod mill： The rod mill has the highest efficiency when the feed size is <30mm and the discharge size is about 3mm with uniform particle size and light overcrushing phenomenon. SAG mill: When the weight of the SAG mill is more than 75%, the output is high and the energy consumption …

Feed Size VS Ball Size
xG is the mill feed d80, not the circuit feed. For SAG mill, the xG value has to be determined by scalping of the full size distribution. The particles larger than the minimum pebble size (given by the pebble extraction grate opening) has to be excluded from the distribution to calculate the top ball size!
