Wear Resistant Systems for Mineral Processing
Maintain plant efficiency and integrity with Kingfisher Industrial
Equipment Service Life – we understand the pain
The mineral processing industry encapsulates a plethora of activities starting underground where the raw material is mined and subsequently processed before it reaches the despatch area. Throughout this process minerals may, dependant on the type of operation, be crushed, screened, washed, dried, milled, separated and blended before they are despatched as finished product. In undertaken all of those tasks the minerals will be handled in a mechanical, hydraulic or pneumatic state and the conveying velocity will increase and decrease as suits the types of process being undertaking.
Increase equipment reliability and service life
The one factor that is an ever constant issue facing both operational and maintenance teams is the reliability of the equipment used to undertake specific processes. Being structurally sound in terms of both design and capacity will suffice in order to undertake the process, however if the equipment is not protected against the cyclical nature of the operation, then its service life will be greatly reduced due to the amount of wear that occurs during the operation. To counter that possibility, we offer technically proven solutions catering for the known parameters of the operation by understanding the key issues that engineers identify as critical parameters.
The Solution Providers
Using our range of advanced protection systems, we will add significant value to the efficiency and reliability of the operation. By taking the time to calculate the cost versus payback ratio, plant engineers can be assured that investing in the solutions we offer gives benefits such as optimum performance and reduces the cost of unscheduled breakdown or repairs.
Protection over replacement

Problem
Despite continual failures with existing suppliers of ceramic linings, the plant manager of the mill above decided to persevere with the use of ceramics.
Solution / Benefit
After consultation, Kingfisher advised the plant manager to invest in a full turnkey package consisting of design, manufacture and installation of our 50mm and 63mm thick 92P K-ALOX ceramic lining system. Carrying out the necessary surface preparation, the design and manufacture of a fully tailored lining system along with a technically compliant installation process has ensured continual operation Processing in excess of 80,000kgs of highly abrasive silica powder. Previous systems failed after only 20,000kgs, and caused unplanned downtime and product contamination.
Key Benefits
A bespoke system supplied and installed
Total contract control
Minimal cost to improved Performance ratio
Superior quality of ceramic liners
One order one supplier
