AG SAG Mills Curved Pulp Lifters
Curved pulp lifters have been incorporated in SAG and AG mills in Australia. The aims have been to ensure complete discharge, at high throughput, of both slurry and coarse solids, especially at high mill rotational speeds. Curved pulp lifters can overcome incomplete discharge and backflow of solids down the pulp lifter that can occur in straightradial pulp lifters (and is a major cause of wear).
