%X Planetary ball mill is a powerful tool, which has been used for milling various&nbsp;materials for size reduction. The discrete element method (DEM) was used to simulate the dynamics of particle processes in a planetary ball mill. This work includes the calibration of DEM parameters to simulate a planetary ball mill using EDEM Altair 2021.2 software, which provides both faster&nbsp;workflows and results. <span style=\"white-space:normal;\"><span style=\"font-family:;\" \"=\"\">The iterative input parameters changed to a close correlation between the simulation and experimental results are attained</span></span><span style=\"white-space:normal;\"><span style=\"font-family:;\" \"=\"\">.
