A second source of uneven feed to the HPGR can be segregation, where one side of the HPGR is mostly fed with coarser particles, while the other side receives more fines. Figure 3 shows a schematic illustration of feed segregation prior to the HPGR (Van der Meer & Maphosa, 2011). Similar to the impact of the uneven feed in the
The use of HPGR crushing is more conductive to the development of ore micro-cracks, which improves the grindability of the material and achieves "more crushing and less grinding", contributing ...
Starting in the 1980's, HPGR was first successfully implemented in the cement industry and is now used across a wide range of mining applications. Today, there are more than 200 machines operating in the mining industry around the globe, on more than 150 sites. These energy-efficient grinding machines are mostly used for processing iron, gold, copper and …
The alternative HPGR circuit includes a larger cone crusher with 1866 kW and a single screen to scalp the crusher feed, similar to standard secondary crushing circuits. The implementation of a larger crusher allows higher capacity and the ability to tighten up the closed side setting to a range of 28–3 4 mm, resulting in a top size of 55–65 mm.

A series of pilot scale HPGR locked cycle tests were performed to simulate the following circuit configurations: including closed circuit with a screen, partial product recycle and edge recycle.
Crushing circuits are known to be more efficient than traditional SAG milling circuits. However, in large operations, crushing circuits tend to have a greater number of lines and are more challenging to operate. ... The pilot plant included an HRC™ HPGR with 750 mm x 400 mm rolls, a primary wet screen, and a secondary wet screen. The HRC ...

The process circuit at Argyle is essentially a large -scale crushing and screening plant pre- paring ore for subsequent diamond recovery. Comminution is undertaken down to a quaternary crushing level via conventional cone and HPGR crushers. Investigations car- ried out in the late 1990s indicated that additional diamond
Offloading (S)AG Mills pebble crushing via HPGR Thanks to this intense pressure and wear resistant rollers, HPGRs are more effective pebble crushers than conventional cone crushers. Where significant build-up of pebbles in (S)AG mills can become a real bottleneck in meeting the required plant capacity, re-crushing of the pebbles is of great ...
