Automating mill relining removes personnel from high-risk activities and allows faster machine movements to be applied, consistently and repeatedly, to reduce concentrator downtime. This paper will provide an update on the progress of RUSSELL MINERAL EQUIPMENT's (RME's) mill relining automation technologies and methodologies, and report on the quantitative safety and efficiency results that are bring achieved. It also shares learnings from common implementation challenges and promising developments in automated relining technologies, ensuring continued advancements in relining speed and safety.
