SAG vs. AG Mills: Understanding the Key Differences
SAG mills use a combination of steel balls and rock particles as grinding media, while AG mills use only the ore itself. Both types of mills are used for grinding ore in mineral processing operations, but SAG mills are larger in size and can grind larger quantities of ore. AG mills, on the other hand, are smaller and are typically used for ...

Cement grinding Vertical roller mills VS ball mills
For a ball mill grinding OPC to a fineness of 3200 to 3600 cm2/g (Blaine) the cost of wear parts (ball, liners and mill internals) is typically 0.15-0.20 EUR per ton of cement. For an OK mill grinding a similar product, the cost of wear parts depends on the maintenance procedures, i.e. whether hardfacing is applied.

How does a Vertical Roller Mill Work?
A: The grinding process in a vertical roller mill involves drying, grinding, and separation. The material is initially fed into the mill through the inlet chute and then transported to the grinding table. Once the material is on the table, it is ground between the rollers and the table, which generates heat and causes the moisture in the ...

Difference between a Cement Ball Mill and Vertical Cement Mill
Generally, a vertical cement mill is considered more energy-efficient than a cement ball mill. This is because the vertical mill consumes less energy per tonne of cement produced compared to the ball mill. Additionally, the vertical mill uses a higher percentage of grinding media in its grinding chamber, leading to a more efficient grinding ...
