World wide steel consumption as grinding media isestimated at over 600,000 tons per annum. Total steelmedia wear in a given mill (ball or SAG) grindingprocess is a product of three recognized wearmechanisms impact, abrasion, and corrosion.This necessitates the need for developing impact,abrasion and corrosion wear testers that will allowthe study of media wear over a wide range of energylevels. Refinement of the impact test will allowstudying how impact media wear at high energiesbehaves as a function of those energies.This book is focused on design and development of ahigh- energy impact wear device. A comprehensiveillustration on designing the newest version of theimpact wear tester is explained in detail in order toexhibit how theoretical, virtual and experimentalanalyses could be integrated while designing amechanical system.
