Grinding in Ball Mills: Modeling and Process Control

There are three types of grinding media that are commonly used in ball mills: • steel and other metal balls; • metal cylindrical bodies called cylpebs; • ceramic balls with regular or high density. Steel and other metal balls are the most frequently used grinding media with sizes of the balls ranging from 10 to 150 mm in diameter [30].

This causes the density of the ball mill to climb. Which in turn is discharged back to the cyclone. If now, you go back through the circuit, and check your variables you will notice that the rod mill density has increased. The grind has gotten worse. The cyclone over flow density and the ball mill density has gotten heavier.
