Troubleshooting: Dealing with a Belly Bulge in a Ball Mill

How to deal with a belly bulge in the ball mill? There are several factors to consider when a belly bulge appears during the operation of a ball mill:

  1. Check whether the ball mill is spitting out material from the mine properly. Improper material discharge can lead to a bulging belly in the ball mill.
  2. Listen to the sound of the ball mill. If there are small changes in the sound and it becomes stuffy, there is a high possibility of a bulging belly in the ball mill.
  3. Look at the current value on the ball mill control cabinet. Some people may think that if the current value becomes larger, it is a precursor to the expansion of the ball mill belly. However, if the ball mill has a bulging belly, its current value will actually become smaller.

Ball Mill Operating principle

This ball mill is a horizontal and tubular running device with two warehouses. The machine is of grid type and its exterior runs along the gear. The material enters the first warehouse of the milling machine spirally and evenly through the input material hollow axis by the input material device. In this warehouse, there is a ladder scale board or ripple scale board, and steel balls of different specifications are installed on the scale board. When the barrel body rotates, it produces centrifugal force, and the steel ball is carried to some height and then falls to make the material grinding and striking. After coarse grinding in the first warehouse, the material enters the second warehouse for regrinding with the steel ball and scale board. Finally, the ball is discharged by the output material board, and the end product is completed.
