For G values greater than 1.5 the Bond equation gives …
A high shaft speed is needed to increase the chance of a hammer making contact with a particle; hence, hammer mills have relatively high specific grinding energy. The mill's maximum peripheral speed (i.e., tip speed) is typically between 18,000–24,000 ft/min for fine grinding applications.
Milling is one of the most energy consuming stages of the value production chain in many industries. To minimize the specific energy required, new and more efficient devices and circuits are designed and dedicated optimizing control strategies are applied.

The specific grinding energy of a particular mineral is written as (3.5) E G = 10 W i 1 P 80 − 1 F 80 kWh / t Note: 1. kWh/t × 3600 = J/t 2. While 80% passing a particular sieve is accepted as standard for determining the work index, as recommended by Bond, some use 75% instead.
These adjustment factors are calculated through experimental measurement of energy consumption for a reference test part on a specific machine tool. To validate the adjusted UPLCI model, we conducted a case study that measured the energy consumption for machining three parts made of Aluminum 6082 on two separate three-axis vertical …
