Description Benefits Features Operation

SAG /AG Mills – Feed End Liners

The feed end of a SAG / AG mill experiences low mechanical stress, with abrasion being the primary wear mechanism. It is crucial that liners in this section provide durability without compromising mill availability or increasing the frequency of maintenance. ME Elecmetal offers solutions specifically designed for abrasion-dominant wear environments, providing a range of alloys and profiles tailored to meet customer needs and improve industry KPIs.

Products:
Throat Liner
Extended Outer Feed Head
Inner Feed Head
Monoblock
Filler Ring

Attributes:
External Bolting
Torchless
Unidirectional

Benefits

Increased Hardness

ME Elecmetal’s CM4 alloy delivers superior hardness for enhanced abrasion resistance while retaining the necessary toughness for longevity.

Availability

Advanced liner designs with varied profiles extend the lifespan of liners, leading to improved SAG / AG mill availability.

Maintainability

The extended outer solution streamlines the design by eliminating the Inner Liner, reducing the number of components inside the mill, which results in shorter maintenance times and lower costs.

Safety

External bolting and torchless solutions reduce exposure to hazardous areas, fostering a safer work environment that complies with safety standards.

Sustainability

ME Elecmetal’s sustainability strategy emphasizes the circular economy, optimizing steel management and effectively separating rubber and steel components from liners.

Features

A wide range of alloy options and profiles ensure optimal performance for different applications. Enhancements include features that boost maintainability, reliability, and safety:

  • Cast Liners: CM1, CM2, CM4
  • ME PolyFIT®: Laminated + Rubber
  • Hybrid Liners: The POLYLIGHT design integrates cast and ME PolyFIT products to optimize cost efficiency, wear rates, differentiation, and recyclability (available in SMX profile and “Boot” design)

 

 

Operation

  • ME Elecmetal’s liners are tailored to meet client specifications and adhere to rigorous manufacturing standards. Installation is performed by specialized companies in SAG / AG mills, ball mills, and rod mills, with periodic monitoring to ensure wear aligns with client expectations.
  • Committed to sustainability, ME Elecmetal actively recovers scrap and works to reduce the carbon footprint of its manufacturing processes.
