Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2075072A1] The ball ring mill (99) has a grinder (1) with multiple grinding balls (4), which are guided in a mill track between a grinding ring (2) and a pressure ring (3). The grinding balls are movable along the mill track due to difference of rotational speeds of the grinding and pressure rings. A sensor system (11) is provided for contactless detection of the movement of the grinding balls, where the sensor system has expansion-measuring strips, a radiation source e.g. microwave source and light source, and a radiation detector e.g. microwave detector and light detector. The sensor system is inductive, capacitive, magnetic, optical, acoustic and electromagnetic proximity switches. An independent claim is also included for a method for monitoring a movement of a grinding ball in a ball ring mill.
