The Bond's BallMill Work Index is a measure of the resistance of the material to grinding in a ball mill. This Index is widely used in the industry for comparing the resistance of different materials to ball milling, for estimating the energy required for grinding and for ball mill scaleup.
Section snippets Material and experimental Bond tests. Samples of dacite and basalt from Serbia, copper ore from a South American metasedimentary copper mine, and copper porphyry ore from Canada, of different feed sizes, were used to determine the Bond ball mill work index according to the standard standard Bond laboratory mill with "DxL = 305 × 305 mm" balls and rotation ...
Fred Bond published an article in 1961, which, described the procedure for testing ores for a Bond Ball Index. This parameter is still one of the most demanded tools in the design, evaluation and optimization of ball grinding plants around the world. However, the testing methodology for the Bond Dall Index requires about 10 kg of
The Bond Ball Mill Grindability Test (Bond, 1952, 1961) gives the Bond Ball Mill Work Index. This Index expresses the resistance of a material to ball milling; the higher the value of the Bond Ball Mill Work Index, the more difficult it is to grind the material using a ball mill. This Index is widely used in the mineral industry for:
The work index equation for a ball mill test was generated by Fred Bond to empirically predict the operating work index of an industrial ball mill (8 ft dia by 8 ft effective grinding length ...
samples and perform the rod mill test on the samples blend. Bond Ball Mill (BBM) Standard Test The procedures to carry out the Bond grindability tests in ball mills and rod mills are outlined in They are usually referred to as the standard tests, but it must be highlighted that the procedures haven't been defined by ...
µm. Note that—in order for no correction factor for ball mill product fineness to apply—the ball mill circuit P80 should be no less than approximately 70 µm (Bond, 1962). This Bond Efficiency determination should not be applied to circuits with a P80 finer than approximately 70 µm without making qualifications. 3.
The Bond work index, W i, is defined in a Bond ball mill on the samples of standard size − + 0 mm. In practice, it is possible to find materials of nonstandard size that are finer than mm. In this work, a procedure for the calculation of
The Bond Work Index (Wi) is a common technique for the estimation of hardness and energy requirement for comminution using ball mills. However, this technique is timeconsuming (close to 5 hours ...
The ability to simulate the Bond work index test also allows examination of truncated ball mill feed size distributions on the work index. For grinding circuits where the feed to a ball mill is sent directly to the classifier and the cyclone underflow feeds the ball mill (see Figure ), a question arises as to whether this practice will alter the ball mill work index (BW i) of the material ...
Bond Ball mill work index determination (1 reply) s. srinu1234. 5 years ago. srinu1234 5 years ago. Dear all, Have a good day! I am trying to determine ball mill work index for a very soft . If I follow bonds procedure to do experiment, not able to determine. The following is the data of ore sample. F80% = 2300mic.
The ball mill work index laboratory test is conducted by grinding an ore sample prepared to 100% passing mm to product size in the range of 45150 µm, thus determining the ball mill w i .
Based on the standard procedure defined by Bond, the ball mill work index is determined by simulating a closed cycle dry grinding in a laboratory Bond ball mill until a stable circulating load of 250% is established (Bond, 1949, Bond, 1952, Bond, 1961). The ball mill work index is determined by Eq. (10). The recommendation is the ball mill ...
However, Bond Work Indeces are related to the type of equipment to be used (rod mill, ball mill, SAG uses Drop Ball parameterKwhr/m3, so it is more complex than just specific energy consumption ...
The FC Bond Work Index Test Ball Mill was designed by F. C. Bond for use in determining the Bond Index, a measure of grindability and power required for grinding applications. The FC Bond Mills are used in laboratories throughout the world. A copy of Fred C. Bond's Method of Crushing and Grinding for determination of the Bond Index is included with each mill. This mill can be used to calculate ...
Design engineers generally use Bond Work Index and Bond energy equation to estimate specific energy requirements for ball milling operations. Morrell has proposed different equations for the Work Index and specific energy, which are claimed to have a wider range of application. In this paper an attempt has been made to provide a comparison of these two approaches and bring out their ...
The Bond's standard ball mill is used to determine the work index value of differ ent samples. The Bond work index is defined as the kilowatthours per short ton required to break from infinite size to a product size of 80% passing 100 µm. If the breakage characteristics of a material remain constant over all size ranges, the calcul ated work ...
The basic parameters used in ball mill design (power calculations), rod mill or any tumbling mill sizing are; material to be ground, characteristics, Bond Work Index, bulk density, specific density, desired mill tonnage capacity DTPH, operating % solids or pulp density, feed size as F80 and maximum 'chunk size', product size as P80 and maximum and finally the type of circuit open/closed ...
MenéndezAguado et al. examined the possibility of determining the work index in a Denver laboratory batch ball mill with the same inner diameter as the Bond ball standard mill. The research was performed on the size class of 100% − mm using samples of gypsum, celestite, feldspar, clinker, limestone, fluorite, and copper slag.
Rod mills generate small amounts of fines, as fine particles typically accumulate in the space between rods without enduring comminution [2]. Effective grinding of this material occurs in the ball mill compartment, generating finer fragmentation. The Bond Rod Mill Work Index (BRMWI) test was only possible for Blend 5 (Table 2) due to excessive
The ball mill grindability test is used for describing ore hardness and it is so widespread that the Bond Work Index generated from the test is often referred to as an ore characteristic. The ore ...
For the ball mill grindability test, the work index is calculated from the following revised equation (in short tons): where: Pi = sieve size tested (microns) Gpb = ball mill grind ability Wi, P F have the same meanings as in the top equation. Equipment required: Laboratory ball mill, cm x cm with following ball charge: Agitator ...
