SAG is an acronym for semi-autogenous grinding. SAG mills are autogenous mills that also use grinding balls like a ball mill. A SAG mill is usually a primary or first stage grinder. SAG mills use a ball charge of 8 to 21%. 6 7 The largest SAG mill is 42 (12.8m) in diameter, powered by a 28 MW (38,000 HP) motor. 8 A SAG mill with a 44 (13.4m) diameter and a power of 35 MW
In a mining plant or processing mill, they have a big grinding circuit for crushing raw material, these are usually Ball or SAG mills. Inside these Sag/Ball mill are big steel balls that grind ore via an impact process. In simple terms, these hard metal steel balls get to the top of the rotating chamber and fall down crushing the ore being ...
