Project overview

What sets this project apart: the return load of the autogenous mills contained steel balls — added by the operator to improve mill performance under sanctions — which required dedicated studies and testing to separate them. In addition, due to the high moisture of the material returned from the autogenous mills, the crusher segment design was modified, and at the end of the line, after final crushing, a rotary (trommel) screen replaced the flat screens conventionally used in the mining industry following the necessary studies, research and tests.

The tests required to determine the magnetic field intensity could not be performed by domestic laboratories to the project's specifications, so we simulated and built the necessary test equipment ourselves.
