The inner diameter and the length are 0.305 m, and the ball load is 19.4% of mill volume (equaling a total weight of …

Using Rock Geomechanical Characteristics to Estimate Bond Work Index

A Bond rod mill work index test (BRMWI) is a standard test for determining the rod mill work index of an ore sample [21]. The BRMWI is a measure of the resistance of the material to crushing and grinding in a rod mill and is used to calculate the grinding power needed for a given material parcel regarding rod mill grinding conditions.

Keys to best practice comminution

In those days, 3 stages of crushing, and rod and ball mill grinding, were common in comminution flowsheets. Bond's Rod Mill Work Index (RM Wi) and Ball Mill Work Index (BM Wi) tests provided good designs for grinding mills. If the design was 1200 t/d, each stage had to be able to produce 1200 t/d or (54 t/h at 92.6% availability).
