Mill liner wear and performance monitoring
Stop guessing, start knowing

Metso MillMapper™ is the patented industry standard in mill liner condition monitoring. MillMapper™ liner wear monitoring allows your maintenance and operational personnel to improve the performance of your mill.

  • Understanding how your linings wear has a direct impact on the performance of your grinding mill. 
  • Metso’s wear management solutions harmonizes liner life cycles, optimize throughput and uptime and empower better decision making with accurate wear reports and thorough analysis and wear forecasts.
  • Knowing the current and historical wear rates, wear behavior, and performance of the mill is a prerequisite for liner optimization.

Metso MillMapper is a globally patented technology and is the industry standard in mill liner condition monitoring and modeling.

Accurate without any compromise

  • Over 40 million thickness points and hundreds of cross-sections, critical path components, and hot spots are detected from every scan
  • You get full analysis on all visible surfaces

Safe, fast and easy to use

  • Scanning is performed in as little as 15 minutes and can be scheduled to coincide with your planned inspection shutdown
  • Can eliminate the need for confined space entry
  • Purpose-built 3D mill inspection software

Planning

  • Enables efficient liner maintenance planning
  • Sourcing of correct spare parts
  • Maximize liner usage by identifying optimum reline limits

Optimization

  • Balance and optimize liner design for maximum wear performance
  • Charge and liner volumes are calculated and can be used for simulations and process optimization
Mill liner wear and performance monitoring
The key to constant improvements and optimized performance is mill liner wear and performance monitoring.

Wear reports:

All the collected data, including the number of operating hours and produced tons, is entered into our MillMapper software. The data is processed, cleaned, aligned, and turned into a model that is studied and analyzed, resulting in a MillMapper wear report.

MillMapper reports come in escalating levels of detail:

Status report provides a quick snapshot of the current liner condition, offering thickness and wear profiles for critical areas. The MillMapper™ Status Report can be delivered very soon after the inspection.

Wear analysis report provides a comprehensive summary of the wear across all sections, detailed examinations by both software and mill lining experts, and forecasts for liner life and replacement scheduling, complete with visual aids like Gantt charts.

MillMapper 3D view:

Sites are also encouraged to use the 3D models and reports from their scan, using the integrated Metso MillMapper 3D view software. They can then enter the mill in a 3D environment and get a virtual inspection of the mill and comprehensively review any particular point.

 

Metso can also be commissioned for project work to optimize mill operation, optimize the sequencing of reline schedules, redesign liners, calibrate load cells, perform a complete reline service for grinding mills, and much more. 

We are proud of our 60+ years of experience in optimizing grinding mill liners and implementing best practices. Metso offers the market’s widest range of products to choose from.
