Effective design, completed as part of development, can increase the IRR and reduce ROI time frames considerably. Every C-suite executive and ExCo member that has worked with us has embraced the concepts around effective relining strategies, once there is clarity regarding what is at stake in terms of financial performance.

Mining sites typically have bottlenecks involving the primary crushers and grinding circuits. Focusing on mitigating these can bring tangible results in the first 6-12 months. When these equate to an increase of 4-5% and more in annual throughput, with minimal capital investment, they are rarely ignored.

Drawing on the extensive experience of our maintenance performance team, we focus on diagnosing the root causes of performance results and developing plans based on the data.

In terms of equipment selection, there are currently more than 10 different suppliers of mill relining equipment systems. Some compete at the highest levels in terms of quality and service support, while others provide value solutions for specific purposes.

Deciding how to proceed can be extremely difficult and high-risk. This typically makes it easier to go with what is known rather than choosing what is best from today’s market. With more than 30 years’ experience of owning and operating mill relining systems, our team is particularly well placed to advise about equipment options and provide high-quality solutions. Alternatively, we can review current operations and suggest mill relining solutions that balance technology, value and cost.

Our relining solutions focus on crushing and grinding mill maintenance services:

• Equipment selection cost-benefit analysis
• Mill relining performance and safety diagnostic (PSD review)
• Relining supervisors, trainers and process developers (on site)
• Plant design or layout reviews for relining optimisation
• Optimisation of maintenance processes, practices and procedures
• Crusher and mill liner design – review and optimisation
