The process of relining grinding mills just got easier
The process of relining a grinding mill can be challenging, even for the most experienced crew, says this company, due to confined spaces, hot environments and complex tasks. The 7-Axis Beam Mill Reline Machines (MRM; photo) can be maneuvered using a conventional rail arrangement or tire-drive system, providing increased flexibility for transport around the mill deck. Its traveling liner cart can be maneuvered for rotating liners, and a crane with seven degrees of freedom for manipulation of the liners inside the mill ensures safe, efficient and reliable operation, says the company. Safety features include remote control operation, state-of-the-art electro-hydraulic proportional control blocks with advanced fault detection, safe machine design and safety-rated components and systems, says the manufacturer. — Outotec Oyj, Helsinki, Finland
