When the test ball mill is run in open circuit the design feed rate is 27.42 tonnes/hour. Figure 4 compares the predicted size distributions from the open circuit ball mill with feed rates of 20.0, 27.62 and 35.0 tonnes/hour respectively. As might be expected, the larger the feed rate the coarser the grinding mill discharge product.Web

If you need to add water to the feed end of your ball mill to control the density, by all means do so, but make sure you decrease water addition by an equal or greater amount elsewhere in the circuit (e.g. SAG feed or cyclone feed) or the overload will continue to escalate once the immediate benefits are overtaken by increased circulating load.Web
