A SAG mill, or semi-autogenous grinding mill, is a type of machine used in mining and mineral processing operations. It uses the crushing and grinding action of rocks to reduce materials such as copper ore into smaller pieces for further processing. Unlike traditional mills that rely on steel balls or other media to break down materials, SAG ...
Mill lining systems are crucial components in the mining industry. They protect grinding mills from damage and enhance grinding performance. FC Mill Liners offers solutions for SAG and AG mills, ball mills, and rod mills of all mill brands and sizes. However, challenges arise due to the different applications and operating conditions of each mill.
The second step to decreasing high wear rates was to reduce the maximum operating speed on the SAG mill from 13.2 RPM (78% of critical speed) to 12.7 RPM (75% of critical speed). Justifications were made for the installation of an Omnicone crusher on the SAG pebble oversize material. Conservative estimates were made that as little as a …

Implementation of the new design in the SAG mill was carried out, resulting in increase in daily throug hput from 6 to 12%. Further, the time spent in liner change was. reduced by 47% given the ...
The Discharge End (DE) pulp lifter is a critical component of autogenous (AG) and semi-autogenous (SAG) grinding mills, having a significant impact on the throughput, efficiency and performance of mills. Underestimating the importance of an optimised liner design in a mill can lead to back-flow and carry-over processes which can ultimately ...
Quantifying SAG Mill Liner Survivability and Wear Life. Amit, Saxena; Youqing, Yang. SAG mills are designed to run with up to 95% mill availability. This can only be achieved if unscheduled downtime due to any mill liner/bolting failures is eliminated and the time span between liner replacements (scheduled maintenance and downtime) is maximized.

Our two-piece Mill Liner system has been increasing the production and longevity of Grinding Mills for over 70 years.
Ball hitting the liners is an event that can happen both in normal operation and during grind outs (run the mill without feed). Probability of this event happening is as follows: < 5% for a mill run "Perfectly" between 10 and 20 % for normal operation > 20% for a mill run poorly > 90% during grind-outs.

An industrial case study is presented of a 38" diameter SAG mill, which was experiencing challenges associated to liner breakage and low efficiency with the old liner design. Through a modification of the liner design, simulations demonstrated the potential benefit associated to reduction in ultraprojection and improvement in mill capacity.
