Webinar overview

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.

MillSlicer VIP – Optimisation Oriented Mill Measurement is Molycop’s next-generation system designed to transform mill monitoring. It provides robust, real-time data that gives operators visibility into mill performance like never before. 

Key focus areas

With MillSlicer VIP, operators can:
  • improve throughput and efficiency in SAG/AG mills
  • measure key parameters such as mill volume, steel charge %, toe angle, and liner impacts
  • control mill speed and protect liners using real-time ball striking position data
  • enable better mill feed control
  • use historical vibration data to estimate liner and bearing wear
  • rely on robust, low-maintenance sensors built for challenging mining conditions.
This webinar is part of the Molycop Insights series, which features industry experts sharing their knowledge of innovations, tools and strategies shaping the future of mineral processing.

What you'll learn

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

Who the webinar is for

  • Process engineers
  • Metallurgists
  • Plant managers
  • Operations and maintenance teams
  • Anyone involved in mill optimisation and plant performance
