Product Overview
Installed at the primary crusher discharge, secondary crusher discharge, or above the mill feed, OreVia detects course particle size and fragmentation, adapts to variability in particle size, and provides real-time high-resolution fines analysis and particle size measurements.The system measures the size of coarse particles on a conveyor belt using AI-powered technology to identify the outline of each rock. It then calculates rock size based on the best-fitting ellipse for each rock. The outcome is a Particle Size Distribution (PSD) that measures the fragmentation of the ore.
The system offers remote monitoring or playback features and integrates seamlessly with existing control systems. OreVia can easily be evaluated off-site through quick video-based demonstrations provided by Molycop free of charge using video footage of your mill feed.
Real-time fragmentation control
Artificial Intelligence has paved the way for robust, affordable and accurate particle-size insights without the need for expensive laser-based systems. Measurements from the primary crusher discharge are helpful in ensuring optimal operation. For most plants, the mill feed is a typical measurement as it significantly affects the mill operation. Control systems can use this measurement to adjust the mill operation based on the particle size of the ore fed. If the ore is reclaimed from a segregated stockpile, fragmentation measurements can be used to ensure the optimal blend reaches the mill.
Data is collected and stored in a time-series database and is readily available for analysis by Molycop’s VIP Platform or output to the plant SCADA/Historian via OPC.
With deep expertise in control solutions, Molycop seamlessly integrates OreVia into control systems to enhance operational efficiency. Designed for compatibility with Molycop’s advanced optimisation suite, including MillSlicer and MillStar APC, this solution ensures precise mill performance and process control.
Product Typical Uses
OreVia is primarily used by mining operations to improve crusher and mill operation and productivity. The system uses advanced data analytics and machine learning to optimise grinding mill performance and improve throughput.Product Benefits
- Reduced costs: Improved crusher and mill operation while reducing power draw and liner wear due to size instability leads to overall cost reductions.
- Increased throughput: Improved process control with real-time adjustments for optimal mill control delivers improved crusher and mill throughput and product specification consistency (system will emit an alarm if material is out of specification)
- Increased profitability: With reduced mil operation costs and improved energy consumption, along with improved throughput and product specification consistency, OreVia delivers real-world profitability improvements.
