The Bond rod-mill work index is used in conjunction with Bond's third theory of comminution to merely calculate net energy requirements for sizing rod-mills. This test was originally developed in the mid 1930s by F.C. Bond. Though, it was altered in succeeding years, it has essentially remained unchanged since 1961 [1]. ...

UNCONFINED COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH 100 200 300 400 UCS (MPa) 0 0.5 1 1.5 2 WiRM/WiBM (metric) Siddall et al (1996) identified the ratio of Bond rod mill Work Index and ball mill Work Index as being indicative of an ore's compentency. Figure 8 plots this ratio versus …
Here is the old Allis-Chalmers Bond Work Index Grindability Test Procedure. The standard feed is prepared by stage crushing to all passing a 6 mesh sieve, but finer feed can be used when necessary. ... then ball mill work index Wi is calculated from the following revised (1960) equation: The average value of P at 100 mesh is 114 …
Commentary on the apparatus of the Bond rod mill Work Index by Alex Doll December, 2015 alex.doll@sagmilling The Bond "Third Theory" of comminution was originally divided into three size …
The Bond ball mill grindability test is run in a laboratory until a circulating load of 250% is developed. It provides the Bond Ball Mill Work Index which expresses the resistance of material to ball milling. This happens after 7-10 grinding cycles, which shows that the procedure is a lengthy and complex one and is therefore susceptible to procedural errors.
The work index covering grinding in tumbling mills of coarse sizes is labelled M ia. The work index covering grinding of fine particles is labelled M ib. M ia values are provided as a standard output from a SMC Test® (Morrell, 2004a) whilst M ib values can be determined using the data generated by a conventional Bond ball mill work index test (M
The Bond work index is one of the most useful and interesting parameters used in designing grinding equipment. However, it must be obtained under restrained conditions, especially in regards to the Bond standard lab mill. The main objective of this study is to show how this index can be obtained using a Denver ball mill, which is …
This paper describes a methodology for providing an estimation of the Bond ball mill work index for a sample of non-standard size (F 100 ≠ −3.35 mm) when all the …
Understanding your ore's variation of work index by size is particularly useful for SAG mill troubleshooting and production forecasting. Examples of the variation in work index at …

The Work Index is used when determining the size of the mill and grinding power required to produce the required ore throughput in a ball mill. 2. Procedure 2.1. Bond Ball Mill Grindability The sample was crushed to passing 6 mesh (3.35mm), from this a 700 cc volume was measured and weighed to be used as feed for the Bond Mill.
Here is a list presented in table form of Rod Mill Work Index as tested/presented by SME handbook of mineral processing, N.L Weiss Editor, N.Y. 1985. Rapid Determination of Bond Rod-mill Work Index by Craig Taylor on Scribd
The basic parameters used in ball mill design (power calculations), rod mill or any tumbling mill sizing are; material to be ground, characteristics, Bond Work Index, bulk density, specific density, desired …
The Thirty-nine samples were submitted for the Crusher Index (Ci), SAG Power Index (SPI®), Standard Bond Ball Mill Work Index (BWI) and Modified Bond Ball Mill work Index (MBI) tests. The Ci, SPI® and Bond Wi values of these samples show a good indication of ore hardness variability within the ore body. The samples were characterized as hard ...
The basic work index equation is: W = 10 Wi/√P – 10 Wi/√F(1) where W is the work input required in kilowatt hours per short ton to grind from 80% passing F microns to 80% passing P microns, and Wi is the work index, or the grinding resistance parameter. It represents the energy input required in kilowatt hours to reduce a s…
The ball mill grindability test is used for describing ore hardness and it is so widespread that the Bond Work Index generated from the test is often referred to as an ore characteristic. The ore resistance to grinding and energy consumption can be expressed using the work index and Bond's Third Theory.
