Milling circuit reliability and optimization with Performance 360™
The milling circuit is a critical system that often determines the production capacity of mining, metals, and mineral operations. However, modelling the dynamics of a system such as a ball mill or sag mill is an extremely difficult problem due to its complexity and lack of instrumentation. In addition, constantly varying process conditions such as ore size, shape, and hardness add to the uncertainty in the control of milling circuits and eventually lead to less than optimal throughput. Our customers use Performance 360™’s digital twins to solve these problems and run safe and efficient milling circuits.
