We have analytically derived a mathematical model of energy-saving ore grinding by a ball mill with a three-phase motion of grinding bodies, invariant to a change in the length of rods during wear. The model can estimate the energy efficiency of grinding larger pieces of ore based on the resulting volume of crushed large-lump material.

SAG mill. SAG is an acronym for semi-autogenous grinding. SAG mills are autogenous mills that also use grinding balls like a ball mill. A SAG mill is usually a primary or first stage grinder. SAG mills use a ball charge of 8 to 21%. The largest SAG mill is 42' (12.8m) in diameter, powered by a 28 MW (38,000 HP) motor.
Grinding and processing. WEG offers the most reliable and efficient solutions for milling plants for ferrous and non-ferrous products with their experience of mill drive systems. In the heart of a processing plant, the ball and SAG mills must be driven by solutions that adapt to the characteristics of the minerals in line with the whole process.
SAG Mill Comminution (" SMC ") testwork results confirm the Baptiste material is medium-hard from a SAG milling perspective. Across all phases of the mine life, Axb values are tightly-clustered in ...
With Advanced Process Control we are reducing process variability and enabling further throughput efficiencies (<5% range and even higher when considering energy efficiency). For example, at Los Bronces, we have achieved an 8% absolute energy reduction across three SAG mills and a 12% reduction in specific energy consumption.
"Among the new solutions acquired is LoadIQ, for monitoring and optimising the performance of SAG mills," he says. "The SAG mill is a key element of many milling circuits today, usually ...

Energy efficiency: Using drives to control motors can lead to big savings. Nearly 70 percent of all industrial electrical energy use goes to powering electric motors. These motors are the workhorses of business, from pumps moving fluids to fans moving air to compressors, conveyors, and every type of machine that depends on rotational force to ...
Energy efficient practices are aligned with the principles of lean manufacturing and continuous improvement. Industry's near-term energy-saving opportunities come from energy-smart procedures applied to current assets. In addition, there are a range of secondary benefits that come with a comprehensive energy efficiency strategy, including:
energy efficiency. Natural gas use can account for up to 85% of operating costs, which are highly dependent on natural gas prices. To withstand future price fluctuations and remain competitive, new plants should use energy-efficient state-of-the-art technologies while older and more inefficient plants should assess retrofitting opportunities.
