8 years ago We control the density by adding water to the feed box or usually pump pressure adjustment. Cyclone overflows gravitates straight on to the flotation roughers. Yes I am saying that at higher densities like 37slurry pulp density Vs 7 (+150um sieve density), you get P80 of 85%.
WhatsApp: +86 18838072829Classifying cyclones are the most commonly used technology for achieving particle size separations below 300 microns. Classifying cyclones are comprised of a cylindrical section and a conical section. The length of the conical section has been found to significantly effect particle size separations Cyclone Fundamentals

WhatsApp: +86 18838072829Hence, material in the ball mill finer than the cyclone overflow P80 is already fine enough and any energy being applied to it will result in overgrinding and occupy mill capacity that could have been used for new circuit feed.
WhatsApp: +86 18838072829The dust simply exits the cyclone with a small portion of the inlet gas stream, about 5 10%. Alternatively, reverse flow cyclones have a vortex reversal allowing the clean gas to exit at the top of the cyclone. Reverse flow cyclones usually stand alone and solid dust collects in the conical portion of the cyclone for removal.

WhatsApp: +86 18838072829If you do not need a deep primary grind, a retrofit/conversion might be of value. A very high impact opportunity to increase your ball mill tonnage. A conversion is cheap in price as you can read in the footer. The cost of a ball mill conversion from overflow to grate discharge is 'fairly' affordable at 65,000 for a 13′ x 15′ mill.
WhatsApp: +86 18838072829Measuring points. In the grinding circuit, possible installation points are in the ball mill discharge and feed (recirculation), (hydro) cyclone feed, overflow, and underflow. Example of a Rhosonics density meter (SDM), installed in the ball mill discharge. The grinding circuit is the first step of a processing plant.
WhatsApp: +86 18838072829Based on experience acquired over the years and the investigative work conducted by Bond, it was established that the optimum circulating load for a closed ball mill cyclone circuit is around 250%. This value is used as guideline for the design of new circuits as well as to assess the performance of existing circuits.
WhatsApp: +86 18838072829Abstract The entrainment of fine particles in underflow of a grindingclassification hydrocyclone can cause ore overgrinding, which will lead to reductions in both metal recovery and ball mill throughput. To address this problem, this paper proposed a Wshaped hydrocyclone that can effectively reduce underflow fine particle entrainment.

WhatsApp: +86 18838072829Unlike the rake and spiral classifiers, the overflow of the cyclone is the exit point for the fine material instead of the other way around as it is in the case of the other two. Extending from the overflow discharge into the body, which is the feed entry point of the cyclone, is the VORTEX FINDER.
