SAG/AG circuits were not traditionally run in closed circuit, particularly where high aspect ratio mills are used, except in South Africa where low aspect ratio SAG milling is more common. It has until recently been preferred, in Australia, to run a SAG-Ball combination (SAB) circuit with the SAG in open circuit and closed circuit on the ball mill.

Two years later, Sino-6 balls replaced the Sino-4 balls in those SAG mills and delivered an additional two-digit percent improvement in wear rate. The partnership between customer and Sino Grinding allowed for continuous improvement and value generation. "Optimising milling is always part of our principle of continuous improvement.
How HPGRs compare to conventional milling Whether you're designing a brand-new mill circuit or optimising an existing site for long-term efficiency, High Pressure Grinding Rolls offer a range of advantages over …
The operation of AG/SAG mills is sensitive to mill filling, therefore developing grindcurves to relate mill filling to performance indicators such as throughput, power draw, and product size can assist in achieving optimal mill operations. The throughput, power draw, and product size have been shown to peak at different mill filling levels.
Mills were unstable, seen as oscillations in feedrate trend graphs. Expert system control is far better than poor operator control. Control engineers recognise that type 1 systems are more likely to be unstable than type 0 systems.

FL has just launched a new SAG mill liner protection solution called SAGwise™ total process control, with an estimate of less than six months ROI. It has been shown in tests that it can reduce damage to the liners by over …
2007, Process Technology and Innovation (PTI) was contracted to increase SAG mill throughput by integrating and optimising blast fragmentation, crushing and grinding for the harder M4/M4A (CuZn) ores. Following the implementation of recommendations provided by PTI, the SAG mill throughput
Using scanned results for new and worn shell liners for a 32' (9.75 m) SAG mill, it is shown that the feed and discharge lifters have significant effect on the flow of the charge introducing ...
A portion of the SAG mill feed is crushed to –25mm to increase throughput through the mill. Product from the SAG mill circuit is further ground in ball mills, before being delivered to the flotation circuit. Flotation ... Mineralogy for Optimising Mineral Processing Subject:

GrindingExpert™ SAG Mill The GrindingExpert solution will automatically adjust feed rate, mill speed and water addition to reduce upsets, eliminate grind-outs and increase tonnage in SAG / ball mills. Secondary grinding can be optimised as well with automation on cyclones and pumps. This grinding expert solution is an add on to LoadIQ. Benefits
Since the early 1980s, we have been designing and manufacturing Semi Autogenous Mill (SAG Mill) and Autogenous Mill (AG Mill) under the Fuller-Traylor brand. Semi-autogenous grinding uses a minimal ball charge in the range of 6-15% while autogenous grinding uses ore only. SAG and AG Mills operate by lifting ore/grinding media and dropping it on ...
OPTIMAL SAG MILL CONTROL USING VIBRATION & DIGITAL SIGNAL PROCESSING TECHNIQUES ABSTRACT Recent developments in low power wireless and Digital Signal Processing (DSP) technologies have given rise to a new system that can monitor vibrations in real-time on the rotating surface of SAG, AG, and Ball mills.
optimising benefits of a fixed "security" camera, we designed a MCU which provides a live video feed from inside a running or stationary SAG mill. The first successful installation of a MCU, completed at the Canadian Malartic mine in Quebec, Canada, in 2014, marks the beginning of a new level of insight, information, and safety inside SAG mills.

by the installation of a 12MW SAG mill with a diameter of 10.97m (36ft). The mill, when built, was the largest SAG mill operating at any existing Australian mine. To aid in commissioning and optimising the mill, the Julius Krutt- schnitt Mineral Research Centre (JKMRC) and plant staff con- ducted extensive surveys of the grinding circuit.
Fig. 3 illustrates the expected throughput response of a generic SAG mill based on simulations conducted by Morrell (Powell et al., 2001) for a range of ore hardness, AG/SAG operation, open circuit (oc) and closed circuit (cc) operation.These curves show how the mill response and operation is sensitive to the ore type and ball loading conditions. Clearly this …
MW). It has been the industry standard for SAG mills above 13 MW capacity. However, pinion systems to 8 MW per pinion and dual motor systems with quadruple pinions extend the range of gear driven mills to a theoretical limit of 32 MW. The Ernest Henry SAG mill (11 MW) is currently the largest twin pinion single drive mill installed in Australia.
