— This was developed into the first 'stirred ball mill' by Klein and Szegvari in 1928 [20]. This prototype was refined into the Attritor mill, a low tip speed (3–5 m/s [21]) vertical pin mill which has been produced in various forms by Union Process since 1946 [19]. Several other stirred media mill designs have been developed over the ...
— A magnetite middling was used to compare the liberation effect of the magnetite fine ground by a vertical stirred mill and a ball mill. The magnetite middling contained a high content of magnetite intergrowth with the particle size mainly distributed in the range of 40–150 μm.The new generated −38 μm products were concentrated by …
The test using a vertical shaft stirred mill compared with Bond ball mill, both operated in closed circuit with a classifier, demonstrated a clear trend that on average 30% energy saving can be expected by using the stirred mill to replace ball mill for coarse grinding from a top particle size 3.35 mm to P80 less than 100 mm.
