Semiautogenous grinding mills (SAG mills) are tumbling mills that most commonly have a shell diametertolength ratio of around two. With this high aspect ratio, SAG mills generate both thrown and cascading ballmilling actions with shell linings shaped to lift and to throw alloy steel grinding balls of up to 150 mm (6 in.) in diameter. These

SAG is an acronym for semiautogenous grinding. SAG mills are autogenous mills that also use grinding balls like a ball mill. A SAG mill is usually a primary or first stage grinder. SAG mills use a ball charge of 8 to 21%. The largest SAG mill is 42' () in diameter, powered by a 28 MW (38,000 HP) motor. A SAG mill with a 44' ( ...

to mimic the grinding mechanisms observed in industrial units. The best examples of this can be observed in the Bond series, where ball mills, rod mills, and crushers are tested using similar laboratoryscale apparatuses. Similarly, the MacPherson and media competency tests were designed to mimic autogenous grinding mechanisms.
