Mineral processing
Tough equipment and budget challenges
For producers of aggregates, coal, metal ores and industrial minerals, keeping productivity high and costs low really is the bottom line.
Reliability and safety are critical to achieving uptime and plant profitability. Equipment must be well maintained and able to cope with the harshest operating conditions.
Look to SKF
SKF has been helping mineral processors meet these challenges for decades. We offer a wide range of solutions to help keep mineral processing machinery up and running - with less need for maintenance, at a lower cost.
Mineral processing equipment
Vibrating screens - The high cost of vibration and contamination
Along with regular exposure to the elements and abrasive dust, vibrating screens experience high vibration and heavy loads. Frequent component failures result - a condition many operators simply consider a cost of doing business.
If screen failures are catastrophic, damage to shafts and other components can drive repairs, downtime and costs. For equipment manufacturers, warranty and relationship issues are a concern.
Avoid premature failures with SKF
A range of SKF bearings, seals and lubricants are specifically designed to handle the heavy loads, high vibration and contaminants that can limit reliability and productivity for vibrating screens.
Crushers - Shock loads and high vibration take their toll
Reducing tons of massive raw materials to useable product takes a heavy toll on bearings, seals and other crusher components.
Shock loads and high vibration, plus exposure to dust, dirt and the elements can lead to bearing overload, contamination and lubricant loss. Eventually, premature failures, costly shutdowns and lost productivity follow.
SKF can help
SKF has several bearing, sealing and lubrication solutions to meet the specific reliability demands of crushers.
Horizontal grinding mills - Severe conditions, inside and out
On the outside, horizontal grinding mills often face the elements. On the inside, they endure vibration, shock loads, moderate to slow speeds, and a high concentration of particulates.
It's a harsh, potentially costly combination. Contamination, lubricant loss, even improper mounting techniques can all lead to failures for pinions or trunnion.
Serious protection from SKF
SKF offers a range of products and services that can protect pinion and trunnion from harsh elements and operating conditions. SKF solutions help drive grinding mill reliability and safety while reducing maintenance and operating costs.
Flotation cells - A tough mix for component maintenance
Separating minerals in a froth floatation cell is a particularly corrosive, difficult-to-maintain operation.
While the mixture of slurry, surfactant, water, air and froth in a given process varies, the ultimate effect on the slowly rotating rake and its related components is too often the same: failed seals and bearings, plus unplanned downtime and lost productivity.
SKF can help
SKF offers several bearing, sealing, transmission and lubrication solutions proven to withstand the most demanding conditions and materials.
Pelletizing mills - Challenging conditions
Mixing iron ore with a binder, then passing the material through a balling mill to produce pellets takes a heavy toll on the machinery and components involved. Extreme temperatures, heavy loads, shock loads, contaminants and more combine to make trouble-free operation a challenge. SKF solutions can help you meet these challenges to drive productivity, uptime and profitability.
