Mill Power and Grinding Capacity

Mill Power and Grinding Capacity

 

The graphs illustrate how power consumed for various grinds changes with ball mill diameter in overflow mills. It is noted that as the diameter of the mill increases the kilowatt hours consumed per ton decrease. This shows the advantage of selecting as large a diameter mill as possible for any grinding application. (Curves may be used within limits of about 3 or 4 feet diameter variance).
