JXSC Mining produce reliable effective ball mill for long life …
Size reduction occurs through a primary crusher followed by semi-autogenous grinding (SAG). Large rocks are screened from the overflow and are sent through a pebble crusher, which recirculates the ore back to the SAG mill. The smaller material after …
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
