Crushing Equipment Exceeds Expectations At Refining Plant
Local mining and quarrying equipment supplier Osborn has completed a challenging project at the new Xstrata Lion smelter, at Steel-poort.
The Johannesburg-based materials handling and minerals processing specialist designed, fabricated, transported and erected a complete new recovery crushing plant for Xstrata Alloys.
Five robust, high-quality Osborn machines have been installed in the new plant. These include a 44H Gyra-sphere cone crusher, a double-deck vibrating screen, an Osborn vibrating grizzly feeder and two Osborn Obex pan feeders. The mine was supplied a refur-bished Osborn Hadfields 3625 double-toggle jaw crusher.
The project featured an excep- tionally tight completion pro-gramme, notes Osborn marketing manager Martin Botha. Having netted this order on the basis of our seamless customer service, and our machines quality and durability, we rose to the challenge, and completed this testing undertaking on schedule, in less than five months, he says.
Osborn also exceeded the customers expectations in terms of the machines capacity. The customers plant requirement was a capacity of 167 t/h. After commissioning, the plant was running comfortably at 240 t/h to 296 t/h, depending on machine loading by Xstrata.
This is a project of which we are particularly proud, Botha enthuses.
He adds that the Xstrata plant is one of the best plants ever completed by Osborn and is one of three similar plants operating on ferroslag.
