Experimental investigation of the impact breakage characteristics between grinding media and iron ore particle in ball mills. Author links open overlay panel Zixin Yin a b, Nan Wang a b, Tongqing Li c, Yuxing ... The results indicated that the breakage of iron ore particles in the ball mill is the cumulative impact breakage with different ...

The rate of ore addition was dictated by the need to maintain the mill at a constant total weight, which was measured by the loadcell mountings and shown on a large display in the pilot plant area. In order to shorten the period required to stabilise the mill, the desired weight of ore was loaded into the mill prior to each test.
