Crushers operate at high power, force and capacity in order to produce the required materials. This puts a great deal of strain on the crusher and its wear parts, which operators must be aware of when carrying out maintenance.
Stilfontein-based sand and aggregate supplier CNC Crushers raised throughput at its Roadstone Shaft 5 crushing plant by 45% while cutting back on maintenance and simultaneously increasing production, after implementing a full process-focused solution from Weir Minerals.
Mining companies are under intense pressure to increase production through the optimisation of their current plant and its resources. In order to achieve this, it is important they preserve and extend their assets, a tactic which Weir Minerals is very familiar with.
Replicating spare parts for slurry pumps is a serious issue in the mining industry, for both solution providers and the mine operators who utilise them.
Weir Minerals will exhibit its world class mining solutions at MINExpo 2016, held from 26th – 28th September in Las Vegas. This major mining exhibition will witness Weir Minerals launch of the Trio® TP900 cone crusher and a pre-release preview of its much anticipated remote monitoring technology at booth 5002, central hall.
External leaks from valves during valve cycling are common problems for plant operators around the world. These leaks can have disastrous consequences, contaminating the environment and endangering workers with hazardous materials, resulting in major down time for the company.
For many years, plant operators have battled with leakage problems, searching for valves which will isolate the flow and prevent leaks to the atmosphere, but are often left feeling frustrated and out of pocket.
