3. BALL MILLBALL MILL
• Ball mill is a grinder
used to grind and
blend. Ball mill is an
ancient idea.
• It is reported to have
been used for
grinding flint for
pottery in 1870. Fig: Ball mill

5. The principle of the operationThe principle of the operation
• IMPACTIMPACT: Occurs due to
corrosion between
rapidly moving balls and
the powder material.
• ATTRITIONATTRITION: Occurs due
to corrosion between
both of particles and
ball with surface of the
mill.
