Get Price2016-6-6 However, open circuiting the SAG mill by feeding crushed pebbles directly to a ball-mill circuit is often considered as a technique to increase SAG throughput. An option to do both can allow balancing the primary and secondary milling sections by having the ability to return crushed pebbles to SAG
Get PriceThe basic strategy works by maximizing the SAG mill power, using a microphone or vibration sensor on the shell to indicate when the impact energy is low, and when the speed can be increased. Alternatively, if high energy impacts are detected, the SAG mill speed is reduced to protect the liners.
