The article presents aspects of the development of a device for wirelessly picking up a vibration acceleration signal from the surface of a ball mill drum. The results of measuring vibration acceleration for a ball mill model for various levels of loading with crushed material are presented. According to these results, with an increase in the load of crushed materials relative to the ball, the level of vibration decreases. The work also presents the obtained pie diagrams of the distribution of vibration load across the mill drum, from which one can judge its current operating mode.

Keywords: ball mill, wireless signal, vibration acceleration, mill loading control
