The Ball Mill Installation Procedure

Materials
 False plate
 Adjusting bolts
 I beam
 Engineer square
 DTI
 Feeler gauge
 Straight edge
Procedure for leveling the ball mill and drive system frame
 Finish civils to desired height with hold down bolts in place
 Make sure all hold down bolts are properly aligned and squared
 Place I beam and cover with cement, to leave 60mm out
 Drill 5 holes equidistant from each other along the I beam length to fit OD M24
nut
 Place M24 nut half way through the hole and weld to the I beam
 Place the adjustment bolt with a lock nut on all the 5 holes
 Place them at approx. same height
 Place the ball mill frame on top of the nut head with its holes through hold
down bolts
 Adjust the bolts with the help of Engineer Square to attain a flat profile
 Do this repeatedly for every bolt
 Repeat the same procedure for drive system side to make frame flash with
ball mill frame
 When the level is zero tighten the frame on hold down bolts
Girth gear and Pinion Assembly
 Place girth gear on the shell end
 Use straight edge to put the girth flash with shell body
 Drill holes on the shell body to mount adjustment bolt
 Use the DTI to locate the girth eccentricity with the shell body
 Adjust the bolts to move the girth to acentric position with the shell
 Repeat this process until the girth and shell are acentric
 Align the pinion gear with the girth gear
 Use filler gauge to measure clearances and make sure the teeth gear don’t
clash at the root
