Calculate the CSE as the average: (80.7 + 73.5) ÷ 2 = 77.1% + 75 μ. In this example the ball mill circuit classification system efficiency is 77.1 per cent at 75 μs. This means that 77.1 per cent of the particles in the mill are 'coarse' and that 77.1 per cent of the mill power is being used 'effectively'.

The speed of mills depends upon their diameter; a ball-mill of 3 feet revolves 35 times a minute, and one of 5 or 6 feet, 29 or 27 times. Tube-mills run at a revolution or two faster (see Fig. 117). Some ores require much finer grinding than others to liberate the minerals, and this increases the milling cost. Ball Mill Product Classifying
