The largest HPGR Polycom in operation (Figure 5) using a maximum roll diameter of 2.2 meters is processing diamond-bearing rocks in Australia at a maximum feed rate of 600 to 800 mt/h with a top feed size of 150 millimeter (6″). This rock material is reduced in one pass to 57% -1 millimeter with a power input of less than 3 kWh…
By mid 2008, 35 HPGR units had been installed at diamond mines since 1986, some 42 had been deployed at iron-ore processing operations since 1995 and 35 had been delivered to hard-rock mining companies, mostly since 2004, according to Rene Klymowsky and colleagues 1.
The present work applies the online modeling approach proposed by the authors in the first part of this series as a digital assistant. The digital assistant receives real-time information of an industrial-scale HPGR pressing of iron ore concentrates and uses the Modified Torres and Casali model to predict the main HPGR performance variables.
