Ball Mills

Ball Mills. Ball mills have been the primary piece of machinery in traditional hard rock grinding circuits for 100+ years. They are proven workhorses, with discharge mesh sizes from ~40M to <200M. Use of a ball mill is the best choice when long term, stationary milling is justified by an operation. ... We bought a turn-key ore processing system ...

Ball & Rod Mill Density

Remember what goes into a mill must come out at the same rate. So as you add water, it will be coming out of the mill at the same volume, earring the ore with it. If the rate of flow is too great the ore will not get the opportunity to be ground before all the fine material has been washed away.
