Crushed ore is introduced to semi-autogenous grinding (SAG) mills, also known as primary mills, where grinding media is released like hammers to assist in the ore cracking / grinding process. The mix of media and ore rises and falls in the mill like clothes in a dryer. Mill operators optimize the pattern within the mill to ensure grinding media ...
The mill charge volume has a great impact on grinding efficiency. For efficient grinding, autogenous (AG) and semi-autogenous (SAG) mills need to be operated with the correct charge in order to maximize their throughput while avoiding overloading. The Outotec MillSense sensor system gives a precise indication of the mill charge volume.

Autogenous circuits require an ore of suitable competency (or fractions within the ore of suitable competency) to serve as media. SAG circuits may employ low to relatively high ball charges (ranging from 2% to 22%, expressed as volumetric mill filling) to augment autogenous media.
Semi autogenous grinding (SAG)technology, as an effective measure to reduce the capital investment and production cost, has been widely recognized. It has been widely applied in non-metal mineral processing, ferrous metal mineral processing and non-ferrous metal mineral processing, and is being popularized gradually in gold processing plant.
Autogenous and Semi-Autogenous Mills† Abstract The Julius Kruttschnitt Mineral Research Centre (JKMRC) has been involved in the study and modelling of industrial autogenous (AG) and semi-autogenous (SAG) mills for over 25 years. Recent research at the JKMRC has developed a new AG/SAG mill model which is based on charge dynamics.

Avoiding machine stoppage is a continual challenge in the mining industry, since downtime hours cost valuable production time and money. In the case of semi-autogenous (SAG) mills, these losses can be excessive. SAG mills are the technology of choice for reducing primary hard-rock ore to feed size for use in a secondary crusher.
Semi-Autogenous Mill Note the size of the mill: Why does the diameter need to be so big? [image: (135-6-2)] SAG Mill Circuit Example — Gold Processing SAG mill circuit example for gold processing [image: (135-6-3)] AG/SAG Mill. AG/SAG mills are normally used to grind run-off-mine ore or primary crusher product.

SAG mills use larger pieces of ore to break up the smaller pieces (autogenous — does it by itself). The larger pieces break down as well. To help the process along, eight-inch-diameter steel balls are added to the rocks as they tumble inside the rotating mill (semi-autogenous — gets some help from the steel balls).
The semi-autogenous mill is a new type of grinding equipment with both crushing and grinding functions. It has the advantages of simple process flow, small investment, short construction cycle, and easy operation. It can directly grind raw materials or coarsely crushed materials to 0.074mm. The grinding ratio can reach 4000-5000, which is ten ...
The high-pressure grinding roll (HPGR) is emerging as an important comminution technology in the minerals processing industry. In direct competition with grinding by semi-autogenous tumbling mills (SAG) and ball mills (BM), the technology has found its key application in primary comminution and also in the liberation of diamonds.
