Mineral Process Plant Optimisation
Plant optimisation support across fixed plant and mobile materials handling equipment.
[ 01 ] Project context
A newly built process plant in the Pilbara region required improvement across fixed crushing plant, reclaim performance, stockpile modelling and plant throughput. The work needed practical control-system and process understanding so changes could improve production outcomes without creating instability, excessive manual intervention or future support issues.
[ 02 ] What was done
- 01 Investigated client bottlenecks and developed practical findings and recommendations
- 02 Established a change-management approach for control-system improvement work
- 03 Supported fixed plant optimisation
- 04 Supported stacker and reclaimer optimisation
- 05 Reviewed control-system behaviour affecting reclaim performance
- 06 Supported changes to reduce reclaim time
- 07 Supported improvements to plant throughput
- 08 Improved stockpile modelling calculations
- 09 Worked across fixed plant and mobile equipment interfaces
- 10 Aligned control-system behaviour with operational targets
[ 05 ] Outcome
- 01 Reduced reclaim time
- 02 Improved plant throughput
- 03 Improved stockpile modelling calculation
- 04 Improved operational visibility
- 05 Supported better production decision-making
- 06 Provided a more maintainable basis for ongoing optimisation
