The vertical arrangement, also, contributes to minor internal classification of particles, reducing over grinding, thus, increasing efficiency. As the feed material enters the top of the grinding
Read MoreVertical stirred mills have been widely applied in the minerals industry, due to its greater efficiency in comparison with conventional tumbling mills. In this context, the agitator liner wear plays an important role in maintenance planning and operational costs. In this paper, we use the discrete element method (DEM) wear simulation to evaluate the screw liner wear.
