Measurement the bulk weight of 120mm steel grinding balls produced by Energosteel
Energosteel Company specialists continue to inform our readers about measuring the bulk weight of steel grinding balls produced by Energosteel.
Recall, our production department has been equipped with two containers in order to measure the bulk weight of grinding balls. Both containers (tubs) have the correct geometric shape – a parallelepiped with sides 118х118х110cm. The each container volume is 1.53 cubic meters.
A batch of 50mm steel grinding balls the fifth hardness group (DSTU 8538: 2015 / DSTU 3499-97) was produced in September. The measurements results have shown in the table below.
Table 1. The 40mm grinding balls bulk weight. (without shaking up)
| Parameter | Container №1 |
| Container volume, m3 | 1,531 |
| Grinding media volume in container, m3 | 1,005 |
| The container and grinding media weight (gross), t | 7,975 |
| The container weigh, t | 0,880 |
| The grinding media weight, t | 7,175 |
| The bulk weight, t/m3 | 4,710 |
The 50mm grinding ball bulk weight is 4,70 t/m3 in reference specialized literature.
So, you can read in our publications about bulk weight of 40mm, 50mm, 80mm and 100mm steel grinding balls Energosteel production. Energosteel Company will continue to inform you about calculation results the bulk weight of steel grinding balls with different diameters manufactured by our company.
