AG mills (or SAG mills with low ball charges) are often used in singlestage grinding applications. Based on their higher throughput and coarser grind relative to AG mills, it is more common for SAG mills to he used as the primary stage of grinding, followed by a second stage of milling.

According to Bond's ball mill equation (Bond, 1961), a coarse correction factor needs to be applied, and efficiency losses over 25% can occur in a ball mill. The savings on SAG mill power are offset by ball milling efficiency losses so the result of making a
WhatsApp: +86 18203695377SAG (SemiAutogenous Grinding) mill is a type of grinding equipment widely used in the mining industry. It is a combination of machines used to break down large pieces of rock into smaller pieces of rock, gravel, or even dust. SAG mills are often used in conjunction with ball mills, but they are not the same.

WhatsApp: +86 18203695377Principle of SAG Mill operation. SAG is an acronym for semiautogenous 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′ () in diameter, powered by a 28 MW (38,000 HP ...

WhatsApp: +86 18203695377SAG Mills use a combo of ball milling and autogenous (letting the material crush itself) milling. They do have balls in them, but usually less of a load of them (820% load) than a ball mill (typically around 30% loaded). They also have plates on the inside that lift the load up and tumble it, like a dryer does.
