Finnish mining engineering company Metso Outotec has announced it will consolidate and integrate its fine grinding solutions into a new stirred mill plant unit.

The units integrate Metso Outotec's existing stirred mills products with other proprietary technology products including hydrocyclones, samplers, analysers, and slurry pumps

By integrating existing products, Metso Outotec said it can offer a process performance guarantee based on testing of representative samples and a Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) calculation co-created with its customers.

Existing products that the new units can be integrated with include the Vetrimill, HIGmill, and Stirred Media Detritor (SMD) mills, the company said. 

Subhashis Ghosh, vice president, Concentrator Plants and Process Islands, Metso Outotec, said the new units are a good fit for brownfield sites due to their compact design and energy efficiency.

Ghosh also said the units also complement the company's strategy to cut emissions and maintain efficiency in fine grinding processes.

Additionally, the new units' plant design is easy to maintain and have a "standalone solution" to minimise operational interruption during installation.
