Topics covered

  • How to improve throughput and efficiency in SAG/AG mills.
  • Measurement of key parameters such as mill volume, steel charge percentage, toe angle and liner impacts.
  • How to control mill speed and protect liners using real-time ball striking position data.
  • Achieving better mill feed control.
  • Use of historical vibration data to extend the operational life of mill liners.
  • Application of robust, low-maintenance sensors built for challenging mining conditions.

Presenter

Cesar Poma, Molycop Senior Process Engineer


Synopsis

Grinding in concentrator plants is one of the least efficient, yet most critical processes in mining – only 3–5% of energy input is effectively used for mineral size reduction. This inefficiency leads to lost value, higher costs and missed opportunities for optimisation.

Cesar Poma explains how Molycop’s next-generation MillSlicer VIP transforms mill monitoring by showing operators how to understand mill performance, reduce energy consumption and improve production rate. MillSlicer VIP provides robust, real-time data that gives operators visibility into mill performance like never before.

What you’ll learn

  • How MillSlicer VIP works and what makes it unique.
  • Strategies to optimise mill efficiency using live monitoring data.
  • A real-world case study that includes measurable improvements.
