The specification for the apparatus to determining a "Bond" rod mill work index is first described in Bond & Maxton (1943). It states that the apparatus is a tumbling rod mill to be operated in a locked cycle test at a fixed circulating load. The geometry of the grinding chamber is described as: mill inside diameter of 12 inches

The Bond rod mill work index (Wir) is measured using Bond́s standard rod mill grindability test, which is conducted in locked-cycle mode to emulate the continuous closed-circuit operation. Besides the laborintensive conduct of the test, which typically requires from 5 to 10 cycles for reaching steady-state, it normally requires 8–20 kg of ...
The bulk density of a new or freshly culled (i.e., broken rods removed), graded rod charge is 390 lbs. per cubic foot (5.0 kg/m³) Due to lack of culling and the greater tendency for rods to break as mills increase in size, the estimated bulk density of the rod charge must be reduced accordingly (Rowland, 1982).

Bond Standard Circuit Work Index: Assume the rod mill Work Index of 9.5 applies from the actual rod mill feed sizeof 19,300 mµ (although some of this work might ideally be done by crushers to achieve a rod mill F80 of 16,000 m) to a rod µ mill (circuit) product size of 1,000 µm. W1 = 9.5 x [(10 / √ 1,000) – (10 / √ 19,300)] = 2.32 kWh/t
A standard Bond mill (Fig. 1) was designed to perform the work index tests and determine the energy consumption of various s minerals.The mill has a round internal housing at the corners, has no lifters, and is for dry grinding. The inner diameter and the length are 0.305 m, and the ball load is 19.4% of mill volume (equaling a total weight of 20.125 kg).

Use this online formula to calculate a Ball Mill, Rod Mill or SAG Mill Operating Work Index. Based on Fred Bond's work you can estimate the energy used into your grinding circuit. This is the most accurate and informative method, but much of the data necessary for its application is not yet available.
The Frederick C. Bond has several grinding indices (ball, rod, abrasion), one of which has been a significant guide for ball mills. The Bond ball mill work index is an expression of the material's resistance to ground and a measure of the grinding efficiency. ... that the revolutions required in all the Bond Work index mill tests conducted ...
Although it was developed nearly 50 years ago, Bond's method is still useful for calculating necessary mill sizes and power consumption for ball and rod mills. This paper discusses the basic development of the Bond method, the determination of the efficiency correction factors based on mill dimensions and feed characteristics, and the application of the ...

The Bond rod mill grindability test is a widely used tool to estimate the response of ores to rod milling. However, the mass of ore required to conduct the test, which can typically vary from about 8 to as much as 20 kg, may represent a challenge when sample availability is critical.The present work proposes an alternative procedure, which is based on the size …
The work index Wi can be determined from plant operations and from laboratory ball mill grindability, rod mill grindability, and impact crushing tests. The laboratory test results are used to check the efficiency of commercial operations and to compute the proper machine sizes for new installations.
Accepting that the rod mill work index applies to size reduction of the circuit feed down to the rod mill test product P 80 of 1050 µm and that the ball mill work index applies from this size to the circuit product size, calculate the standard Bond energy for the circuit.
