A typical circuit, as shown in Figure 2, can consist of either an Autogenous (AG), SemiAutogenous (SAG) combined with a ball mill. In an AG mill no grinding media is added, while in SAG mills the charge is supplemented with steel balls. As more steel balls are added the transition from a SAG to a ball mill occurs.
commonly used control strategies are analyzed and discussed. Keywords: Ball mills, grinding circuit, process control. I. Introduction Grinding in ball mills is an important technological process applied to reduce the size of particles which may have different nature and a wide diversity of physical, mechanical and chemical characteristics.
Ball mills. The ball mill is a tumbling mill that uses steel balls as the grinding media. The length of the cylindrical shell is usually times the shell diameter (Figure ). The feed can be dry, with less than 3% moisture to minimize ball coating, or slurry containing 2040% water by weight.
The simulation results indicate that the composite control scheme based on MPCDO has good performance of tracking and antiinterference in process control of the ball mill. View Show abstract
However, ball milling has its own disadvantages as well. One of the biggest disadvantages of ball milling is the possible contaminations during milling process.

Vertical roller mill application Control challenges Among the operational challenges of a vertical roller mill are the fast dynamics of the process. Compared to ball mills with dynamics changing in 1520 minutes, vertical roller mills have dynamics changing in 24 minutes. The fast dynamics necessitate even closer attention to, LOI.
Ball mill transport index control strategy. A simple ratio controller was implemented to regulate the solids content in the mill by manipulating the feed water. A calculated percent solid index is used to monitor the transport in the ball mill. A separate study was initiated to develop a measurement of this property (Bascur, 1985).
Control of grinding mill circuits Whether to achieve a consistent product quality or throughput, a ROM ore milling circuit is a di cult process to control because of nonlinearities, large time delays, unmeasured disturbances, process variables that are di cult to measure, and modelling uncertainties (Coetzee et al., 2010; Hodouin, 2011).
