Design of the 40 foot SAG Mill Installed at the Cadia …

Analysis of typical SAG mill installations in the copper industry indicates that typically less than 90% of installed motor power is used on average. Therefore, the installed SAG motor power was determined to be 9.72 kWh/t (8.75/90%). Checks were carried out to ensure that the SAG mill could utilise this power within a reasonable envelope of ...

AG & SAG Mill for Mineral Processing Wet & Aerofall SAG …

Numerical prediction of wear in SAG mills based on DEM

A credible and efficient numerical approach for accurately predicting wear within SAG mills can significantly reduce design time and improve grinding efficiency. In this paper, the 3D simulations were performed using discrete element method (DEM) combined with an erosion model, which is referred to as Shear Impact Energy Model (SIEM), to …

PARAMETER OPTIMIZATION OF LARGE SAG MILL LINER …

Due to its strong lifting capacity and excellent grinding performance, the trapezoidal liner is widely used in the SAG mill. The structure of the trapezoidal liner is shown in Fig. 1, the main dimensions are: dip angle (tau), length of the top edge (L) and height (h).Dip angle (tau) determines the trajectory of the mediums in the SAG mill, …

Altair EDEM 2020

Step 3: Define the Geometry Next step is to define the SAG mill geometry used in the model. Import the mill geometry The mill geometry has already been created in a CAD package and is ready to be imported into EDEM. 1. Right click on the Geometries section in the Creator Tree. 2.

SAG mill

SAG mill can be applied as the first stage grinding equipment. It can effectively avoid the occurrence of sliming phenomenon, and avoid further grinding of fine particles. It can play a good role in controlling granularity …

Semi Autogenous Grinding Mill

A SAG mill of diameter 9.0 m and width 6.0 m was charged to 40% of the mill volume with ore of SG 3.2 when the porosity was 38%. With grinding time the ball load changed from 10% to 5% and the bed porosity to 12%. Estimate the change in power due to the change in mill conditions. The mill was run continuously at 70% of the critical speed.

Dynamic modeling and simulation of a SAG mill for mill …

The modeling and simulation of semiautogenous (SAG) mills have been widely used in the design and optimization of mill performance in terms of its power draw, processing capacity and product size distribution. However, these models are solved under steady approximation and do not provide any information on mill charge distribution in …

Optimization of a SAG Mill Energy System: Integrating …

An optimization is carried out to minimize the yearly cost of energy for the operation of the SAG mill. This cost includes the energy consumption cost in $/kWh and the capital cost for the PV-BESS infrastructure, prorated over the life of the battery system, accounting for the discount rate through an annuity factor (Pamparana et al. 2019a, …

Optimizing your SAG mill operation

The amount of pebbles passing through the grate increases with the angle of the grate. It is imperative to ensure the efficient removal of both slurry and coarse pebbles (critical size) in order to ensure the efficient operation of AG/SAG mills. Elimination of the above mentioned material transport problems will allow the mill to respond truly ...
