Services | Capital Equipment | Circuit Optimisation

This is another area which can quickly yield results if the correct process and technology are in place.

Typical questions to ask before determining the need for a process audit are:

• What does better level control mean for my circuit?
• What is the best way to automate my process?
• Am I getting the most out of my equipment?

And then there are questions of spares, service, maintenance and training:

• Am I carrying enough critical spares to stay online?
• Do I know the lead times for critical spares that I don't carry?
• Is my preventative maintenance program suitable?
• Do my operators have the skills to run my plant optimally?
• Do we know how to effectively troubleshoot process upsets?

Answering no to any of these questions represents a risk to the sustainability of your operation. Not only will a process audit answer these questions, but will outline the corrective actions necessary to achieve sustainability.

So it pays to ensure you are talking to the right people. Minspec is that team.

Currently we use JK Simquarry to:

• Construct a crushing and screening plant on the computer screen
• Set the operating parameters of the equipment in the circuit.
• Set the plant feed conditions.
• Run a simulation.
• Examine the results.
• Re-run the simulation.
• Optimise the performance of a new or existing plant
