SAG mills are extremely sensitive to variation in ore strength, and hard ore processing may consume up to 15 kW·h/t of electric energy, while the energy consumption by HPGR is never more than 2.5–3.5 kW·h/t even in grinding the hardest ores. Nevertheless advantages and shortcomings of HPGR should be compared with SAG mills in each individual

HPGR vs SAG

As an example, if you expect to grind an ore from 200 mm size to 1 mm size, the use of the HPGR instead SAG/FAG requires the addition of 1…2 crushing phases, consequently the FAG/SAG cannot be replaced by HPGR only. If we add the screening, handling and feeding equipment CAPEX and OPEX, the comparison work will be more complex.

For the mining industry, our semi-autogenous (SAG) grinding mill uses a minimal ball charge in the range of 6-15 percent. It is primarily used in the gold, copper and platinum industries as well as in the lead, zinc, silver, and nickel industries. Autogenous (AG) grinding mills involve no grinding media as the ore itself acts as the grinding media.
