Freedom of design As a metallic liner is a fully customized product with each new liner requiring its own patterns, there is total freedom of design. It is possible to do almost any shape or size; the only limitation is the maximum allowed weight of the liner and the mill feed end trunnion diameter. 3. High level of optimization
Angular spacing equal to 360° divided by the mill diameter (ft.) will provide casting design flexibility and assist in optimizing future …
The SAG mill had a 6–8% ball charge and the power consumption was 8 kWh/t, which agreed well with the expected value. 9.6. Problems. 9.1. In an SAG mill the dimensions of the mill were 9.75 m × 3.5 m and the specific gravities of the mineral and that of the balls charged were 4.1 and 7.9, respectively.

SAG mills are currently the technology of choice in hard rock milling operations for reducing primary-crushed ore to ball mill feed. In recent years, the trend has been towards larger-sized SAG mills with diameters of 10.4 m (34 ft) and above, with the largest being 12.2 m (40 ft) in diameter and drawing 20 to 22 MW (Jones, 2006).
For large mills, using 125 to 140 mm (5 to 5-1/2 in.) feed ball size, conventional new lifter-liner dimensions are around 300 to 350 mm (12 to 14 in.) overall height above the shell, …
For example, liner wear can greatly affect SAG mill performance (Toor et al., 2015) and simply including the entire historical dataset might not be optimised to predict SAG mill performance. This ...
Semi-autogenous grinding mills (SAG mills) are tumbling mills that most commonly have a shell diameter-to-length ratio of around two. With this high aspect ratio, SAG mills generate both thrown and cascading ball-milling actions with shell linings shaped to lift and to throw alloy steel grinding balls of up to 150 mm (6 in.) in diameter. These
Figure 3 – Discharge end of the 38' SAG mill at Canadian Malartic with feed chute in place Intelligent Bolts The prediction and monitoring of liner wear inside a SAG or Ball mill has traditionally been accomplished and confirmed by a number of different methods, many of which require people to enter the mill.
Semi-Autogenous Grinding (SAG) Mill Wet or dry Higher capacity than A-G mill grinding Primary, coarse grinding (up to 400 mm feed size) Grinding media is grinding feed plus 4-12% ball charge (ball dia.100- 125 mm) High capacity (short retention time) Less sensitive to feed composition (critical size material) Semi-Autogenous Mill

Material for AG/SAG Mill Liners. MGS Casting had success to use ASTM 2074/L2B alloy steel to manufacture AG/SAG mill liners. Under this material, our mill liners' span life can be obviously improved. Our Australian customers had ordered more than 3000 tons per year of this material mill liners. Grade.
The bolts and fittings are much lighter than for steel liners. Rubber alone is not suitable for primary mills. (Powell, 2012) Tensile strength should be at least 20 Mpa and hardness should be...
Ball mills: Ball mills are the stalwart unit of the majority of pilot grinding circuits. ALS has a range of rubber lined overflow ball mills including: 2.3kW, 4.4 kW high aspect (900 mm Dia x 400 mm EGL), 3 x units of 5.5 kW and 7.5 kW (900 mm Dia x 790 mm), 1 x 15 kW 900 mm Dia x 1800 mm EGL, 1 x 30 kW 1240 mm Dia x 1440 mm EGL).
Low Carbon Chrome Moly Steel (300 to 370BHN): Was generally used for mill liners (AG, SAG, and Ball) prior to the movement to higher carbon content steels. It has excellent wear characteristics with some impact resistance, generally now used for discharge grates where slightly better impact resistance is required compared to the higher carbon ...
The calculation shows that the crushing ratio can reach 3000 ~ 4000, while the ball mill's crushing ratio is smaller. The feed size is usually between 20-30mm and the product size is 0-3mm. Feed Both the …

For example, liner wear can greatly affect SAG mill performance (Toor et al., 2015) and simply including the entire historical dataset might not be optimised to predict SAG mill performance. This ...
Safer attachment system ensures no bolt breakage. Mill availability improves due to less maintenance and fewer and shorter stoppages. Safety in installation. Weight of parts …
A mill lining is a customized wear part. Identifying the appropriate type of lining and design is vital for optimizing mill throughput and total grinding costs, including costs for energy, grinding media and maintenance. Furthermore, the design must be constantly …
Through an innovative manufacturing process we've produced a ball with greater impact resistance and reduced spalling compared to the standard SAG ball, ready to perform in the highest impact SAG milling …
"Thinner mill liners result in a larger volume inside the mill. This means you can have a higher charge level. Using composite liners also cuts the weight of the liners to about 50 percent of standard steel cast liners, making it possible to work with a higher ball charge level without increasing the total weight of the mill.
The mill has an unfavourably close liner spacing, with 40 rows of liners in an 18ft mill. The SAG mill drilling would conventionally be 34 rows, and this is too many ( Powell et al, 2006). These ...
