he acquisition will complement Metso's actuation and valve automation offering and enable a full range of actuators for all major valve markets and a broader offering of limit switches for mid-market applications. It also introduces new products to Metso's process-valve portfolio for the oil and gas, pulp and paper, mining, water treatment and other process industries. 

Metso is addressing the growing demand for crushing and screening plants in the Indian market by expanding its production capabilities in Alwar. This latest investment increases Metso's crushing and screening plant production capacity in India by 35 percent.

The agreement covers a period of three years, and the order will be booked in Metso's orders received in quarterly basis.

In today’s mining industry, there is a clear trend of increasing production capacity to reduce costs through economies of scale. This comes with an ever-changing work environment, where sudden issues can arise and dramatically impact downstream processes. More demanding equipment needs and knowledge gaps caused by workforce turnover add to the challenges.

Starting up a new mine in Germany today is a real challenge. Erzgebirgische Fluss- und Schwerspatwerke GmbH (EFS) made it happen by questioning the way things are being done, using modern technology and by optimizing the process.

The deliveries cover the whole metal recycling product portfolio, including shears, balers and shredders. A large part of the orders were scrap shears, ranging from the small and mid-sized N-series(TM) shears, to the heavy-duty EtaCut(TM) scrap shears, which are designed especially for scrapyards, steelworks and foundries.

This agreement will provide QIO with maximum availability of equipment to meet production targets for the Bloom Lake Iron Mine located near Fermont, Quebec.

In this post, we discuss some of the key principles in evaluating potential classification equipment and how new Metso MHC™ Series hydrocyclones help to tackle some of the main challenges in balancing cost and performance of your grinding circuit to ensure maximum mineral recovery.

In today’s mining environment, every percentage matters. Small incremental improvements or reductions in performance can add up to millions of dollars of impact.

With a Life Cycle Services maintenance contract, the mine also experienced growth in the mechanical availability of its crushing process, with improvements of 0.6% on crushing line 1 and a increased availability of 2.1% on line 2. The improvements were achieved with zero accidents. Due to these achievements, Anglo American gave Metso the following award: “Commitment to Zero Harm and Living the Anglo American Way 2017”

With bolts at the Trunnion to Head connection continually breaking and resulting in unwanted downtime and lost production, the mine decided to act by replacing the mill head rather than continue to suffer downtime on the mill.
