3. Analysis of Variant Ball Mill Drive Systems The basic element of a ball mill is the drum, in which the milling process takes place (Figure 1). The length of the drum in the analyzed mill (without the lining) is 3.6 m, and the internal diameter is 3.4 m. The mass of the drum without the grinding media is 84 Mg.

The wet ball mill has a low noise, and low environmental pollution. The wet ball mill has a simple transportation device with less auxiliary equipment, so the investment is about 5%-10% lower than that of a dry ball mill. The grinding particle size is fine and uniform. The wet ball milling can not only grind agglomerate into fine particles, but ...

Crushed ore is fed to the ball mill through the inlet; a scoop (small screw conveyor) ensures the feed is constant. For both wet and dry ball mills, the ball mill is charged to approximately 33% with balls (range 30-45%). Pulp (crushed ore and water) fills another 15% of the drum's volume so that the total volume of the drum is 50% charged.
