Agitated media mills stir the grinding media to break down the target material into ultra-fine particles. The grinding media generally consists of spherical metallic or ceramic beads that are stirred into action by the agitator. Agitated media mills are designed in both vertical and horizontal configurations.

Outotec HIGmill is a "stirred media" grinding mill, in where the stirred effect is caused by rotating grinding discs together with static counter discs. Mill structure and its main components are presented in Figure 1. Figure 1. Outotec HIGmill™ [1]. The main components are: • Motor • Gearbox • Grinding chamber • Rotating shaft
A gas fluidized-bed stirred media mill is provided for comminuting solid ticles. The mill includes a housing enclosing a porous fluidizing gas diffuser plate, a baffled rotor and stator, a hollow drive shaft with lateral vents, and baffled gas exhaust exit ports. In operation, fluidizing gas is forced through the mill, fluidizing the raw material and milling media.
Jan 01, 2009· In ball mills, smaller grinding media versus 25 mm media generate a power saving from 10% to 44%. In vertical stirred mills, the power saving increases from 20% to 60%. More potential savings have been identified.For the same operating conditions, how a vertical stirred mill is performing compared to ball milling?
Stirred media mills are relatively new to mining industry, and several new technologies have been developed such as the VXPmill (vertical stirred mill). There is little technical understanding of optimizing and scaling-up of the VXPmill. This thesis addresses both of these
