Dry Ball Mill

The Xinhai dry ball mill grinds ore in a dry environment after the crushing and drying stages. Steel balls inside the rotating drum break down feed material to a fine product suitable for downstream dry beneficiation or direct use.

Technical parameters

This mill sits in the grinding stage of the comminution circuit, between crushing and dry classification or product handling. It avoids water addition, which simplifies infrastructure and suits water-scarce operations or ores that react with moisture.

The model table lists 35 sizes, with the MQD prefix code indicating the mill’s diameter and cylinder length. Drum rotation speed, ball load capacity, and motor power scale with mill dimensions, directly affecting throughput and achievable product fineness. Use the table to narrow down models based on your required feed and discharge sizes and desired output.

Parameter boundary

Standard-model catalogue figures. Actual capacity, power draw and wear life shift with ore properties, feed gradation and circuit conditions. Use them to shortlist, then confirm the duty by testwork, flowsheet calculation and a written confirmation from the manufacturer.

What decides the selection

Before selecting a dry ball mill model, define your ore’s Bond work index, target product size, and required throughput. Confirm whether the circuit is open or closed, as this influences the required mill size. Also specify feed moisture and any material handling constraints that might affect the drying stage preceding the mill.

  • Bond work index or measured grinding energy
  • Feed and product particle size
  • Pulp density
  • Throughput
  • Number of grinding stages
  • Liner and grinding media selection
  • Specific energy consumption
  • Closed-circuit classification arrangement
