SAG mill optimisation using power-based simulations. Author Dr. Rajiv Chandramohan, Robert Braun, Greg Lane. Paper presented by Dr. Rajiv Chandramohan at Comminution '18, Cape Town, South Africa, April 2018. ABSTRACT. Ausenco’s Ausgrind comminution program has been the in-house design tool used on a number of successful projects and technical studies. In recent years, Ausgrind has been

operating SAG mills (it is not intended for design, but could help with it). Even if the mill total load is a key variable and can be indi-rectly measured with bearing pressure measurements, it was decided to discard it as an input variable. The main reason is that this kind of model must be useful to relate independent input vari-ables with the dependent variables SAG mill power and speciﬁc

Semi Autogenous Design FactorsSag Mill Operation ExampleProcess Plant DescriptionSag Mill Design and SpecificationOperating Problems Since CommissioningDesign Changes and Future Operating StrategiesThe design of large mills has become increasingly more complicated as the size has increased and there is little doubt that without sophisticated design procedures such as the use of the Finite Element method the required factors of safety would make large mills prohibitively expensive. In the past the design of small mills, up to +/- 2,5 metres diameter, was carried out using empirical formulae with relatively large factors of safety. As the diameter and length of mills increased several critical problem areas were ident

(slurry pool) is predicted from mill design and slurry flow data and its impact on power draw is then predicted. Slurry pooling causes the power draw in AG and SAG mills to be lower than a mill without a slurry pool. This phenomenon results in overflow mills usually drawing less power than grate discharge

proportion of SAG mill power and this proportion falls as the liners wear (and lifting capacity falls) even when mill speed can be increased. The major proportion of mill power is used to turn over the mill charge. It follows that repeated ball-rock short-range low-energy impacts within the tumbling charge are a significant proportion of the overall rock-breakage process throughout the life of

If the mill has cone ends the model automatically calculates the volume of the cone ends as well as the volume of balls/rock in the cone ends from the cylindrical section data that the user inputs. In SAG mills the total filling relates to the combined rock and ball volume (including voids),

SAG mills mimic the same shortcoming. It follows that in order to obtain the speciﬁ c energy (SE) to achieve a certain transfer size, based on the 80 per cent passing value, an inefﬁ ciency factor must be applied to the SE of single stage ball mills, rod mills or AG/SAG mills when calculating power according to the Bond Third Theory method.

CMD Consulting uses Rocky DEM power calculations to validate mill designs In a typical mine, the liners and lifters of a comminution mill are expected to last only 6-9 months and can cost upwards of US$500,000 to US$1,000,000 to replace. It is therefore important that the design of these components be carefully considered to

For example, the SAG mill may have 10 MW of power draw available and the two ball mills each of 7.5 MW of power draw available for a total of ratio of 10:15 (1:1.5). The software uses the particular power model (Bond/Barratt, Morrell Mi, etc.) to determine what is the transfer size where the ratio of E SAG to E ball matches the ratio of mill power (1:1.5 in this example).
