Ball Mills
Processing capacity of 272 kilos to 50 tons per hour
Industrial-Grade Ball Mills
Ball mills play a primary role in traditional hard rock grinding and are ideal for reliable, continuous long-term operations. GSI’s ball mills are housed with oversized roller bearings and a complete drive system discharging mesh sizes from ~40M to <200M.
The capacity, or throughput, of our GSI ball mills are directly linked to the particle size of the ball mill discharge. For instance, it is roughly 3 times as fast to reach a 65 mesh grind than a 200 mesh grind. Contact our mining experts to design and engineer the optimal grinding circuit and establish a proper commercial liberation size.
All wear parts are highly abrasion resistant & replaceable
Thick, manganese steel bolt-in liner sections
Oversized trunnion bearings for long life
1”, 2”, 3”, and 4” diameter alloy balls included
Includes discharge trommel, allowing a choice of screens to limit top size discharge
