    7.2.1 Motion of the Charge. The distinctive feature of tumbling mills is the use of loose crushing bodies, which are large, hard, and heavy in relation to the ore particles, but small in relation to the volume of the mill, and which occupy (including voids) slightly less than half the volume of the mill.Experimental analysis of charge dynamics in tumbling mills ,2007-1-1 · It is known that the mode of vibration is related to the motion of the charge and various other milling parameters (Rolf et al., 1982). Therefore, if the vibration signature of the mill in motion could be recorded and analyzed then it would become a very useful tool in establishing the charge profile of tumbling mills in operating plants.

In the charge, the center of gravity is shifted from the rotational center of the mill system, and its motion is induced by rotation of the mill. At the same time, the charge creates a torque in the mill system. Breakage of ore particles and wear of liners/ball media are closely linked to this motion. To study these phenomena in a
