Mill reline challenges and their impact on uptime

The biggest contributor to mill downtime is typically reline shutdowns. To maximize annual production uptime, the mill lining must be optimized for both maximum wear life and minimum change-out times.

Many mine sites face challenges during reline such as:

Not meeting annual production ambitions due to downtime
Time consuming relines due to many small liner parts
The load limit of the existing mill reline machine is a roadblock
The reline shutdown length is difficult to estimate
Unsafe working environment due to working too close to heavy equipment and linings
Issues in installation quality due to complex process

Mill uptime is essential, with a focus on reducing safety risks and optimizing performance to boost annual production.

When every minute counts

Metso mill liners and mill reline machines

Mill relining is a major driver of shutdown duration, with every minute of downtime impacting production. One key factor is the number of liner elements handled during a reline. Metso’s Megaliner™ concept reduces downtime by significantly cutting the number of liner parts and handling required. Fewer components mean fewer lifts, less manual interaction and a streamlined process resulting in cutting downtime while creating a safer, more controlled working environment.

Through Metso Life Cycle Services (LCS), you gain access to a complete, integrated solution that combines Metso mill liners, Metso mill reline machines and ongoing development support.
