BrainWave Control solutions for SAG mills. 02 The solution: Measure. Control. And profit. BrainWave SAG mill is a unique control package using patented modelbased predictive adaptive control technology. It is well known within the mining industry that effective grinding in a SAG mill depends
It is the sound of rising costs by the hour both from the downtime itself and from maintenance costs. Optimising the capacity of your SAG mill is crucial to avoiding downtime and liner wear and damage. With variances in mill ore feed rate, mill speed and slurry density, critical impacts can occur in your SAG mill.
Every mining operation has a unique grinding process. has experience of over 8,000 grinding mills globally, including manufacturing and delivering the largest SAG/AG mills in the world. Our experts welcome the opportunity to assist you with circuit and circuit control design as well as startup, operation, and optimization of your mill.
Figures 8 and 9 on the right show results from a gold plant''s SAG mill achieved with MillStar''s Segregated Ore Feed Controller combined with the Power Optimiser: • The standard deviation of the mill feed control is greatly reduced. • The cyclone feed is more stable, allowing for consistent size separation and feed to downstream processes.
The SAG mill and all other grinding equipment is remotely monitored and controlled via computer from a central control room. The control room operator watches four video terminals and a CCTV monitor to keep track of critical process variables impacting mill throughput.

San Diego, California, USA Fuzzy Logic Control On a SAG Mill Michel Ruel Optimization and Advanced Control (Top Control), BBA Inc., Canada CAN (Tel: ; email: [email protected] ). Abstract: The paper will present a case where fuzzy logic was the logical choice to improve performances of a semiautogenous grinding (SAG) mill.
Having used weight control and power draw to control Mill operations, using Mill Sound to run a mill was a new one for me. I found it unusual and not that anyone else used that style of operation control to run their mill and did you find it more effective than the more traditional way
In this case, mill speed is the primary manipulated variable used to control mill load. While there is no generic control strategy for SAG milling there is a considerable amount of reusable engineering. In contrast to an expert or black box system, the control loop approach was built using standard blocks, connected as shown.
mill performance could become worse or better by putting in a new shell liner. Data from pilot plant test work illustrates the influence of the shell lifting effect on the grind for a primary grinding duty. Figure 5 shows the evolution of the mill discharge product size in relation to the lifting effect of the liners.
The Manta Controls Advanced Control System, called the SAG Cube, automatically monitors and controls a SAG Mill, keeping track of critical process variables impacting mill throughput. For most sites, one hour of operation provides a revenue between AUD 20,000 per hour up to or greater than AUD 100,000 per hour.
Model Predictive Control for SAG Milling in Minerals Processing | 5 Model Predictive Control on a SAG Mill and Ball Mills The solution for the SAG Mill is an adaptive controller which controls mill load using direct mill weight measurement or indirectly from bearing oil pressure.

A further explanation is required to explain the importance of designing the SAG mill chamber to draw required power at optimum operating conditions of 75% critical speed and less than 30% by volume load. Recent studies in the threefoot diameter SAG mill are instructive. The following graph shows the relevant facts as Figure 2.
control volume to include, not only the SAG mill, but also the two ball mills (8 MW/mill) (Fig. 4) leads to a slurry circuit discharge temperature of C and a Carnot efficiency of % using Eqs. (6) and (5) respectively. The resulting effect of expanding the control volume to include the two ball mill .
Control of SemiAutogenous Grinding(SAG) mill weight is an example of an important process that exhibits many of these aspects. Maintaining the SAG mill weight at the optimum value is critical for achieving maximum grind rate efficiency and mill production (Powell,, van der Westhuizen,, Mainza, 2009).
Noise monitoring for optimal mill operation. Mining companies around the world continue to face the challenge of increasing productivity and reducing downtime. As part of its SAG mill control system, Manta Controls developed the Manta Mic: a robust and reliable acoustic analyser that prevents mill .

radial trend of mill sound and vibration energy to identify charge toe, shoulder levels, and balltoliner impacts for unprecedented SAG mill control, insight, and reliability.!!!!! The throughput and efficiency of a SAG mill depends on the volumetric load: An overloaded mill has reduced coarse ore breakage, as the cascading balls and rock ...
The load level and composition by percentage volume of total mill volume may be determined through the use of mill noise (see Figure 14), process data and software based on appropriate algorithms. This method of determining mill load composition, together with the software developed, has been referred to in this paper as the SAG Analyzer2. Other
