Oct 29, 2019 Two 28 MW gearless mill drive systems (GMDS) are operating in the mine's 12-metre SAG mills and four 16.5 MW GMDS are employed in 26 ball mills along with associated control systems. Gearless mill drives are the 'workhorses' for grinding operations which are at the heart of any mine.
Jul 08, 2014 Gearless mill drive system in iron ore processing. ABB was recently contracted to supply gearless mill drive (GMD) systems for two 38 foot semiautogenous grinding (SAG) mills at the Serra Azul iron ore mine in Brazil. The Serra Azul mine unit, owned by MMX Minera o e Met licos, an EBX Group company, is located in the iron quadrangle of ...
The Gearless Mill Drive system consists of the ring motor with its feeding cyclconverter, pre-installed in an E-house. It also includes the excitation rectifier, the automation system (for mill and motor) including HMI, monitoring and diagnostic system, MCC’s (for mill and drive auxiliaries), differential ...
Sep 01, 2010 Newmont Mining Corporation selects ABB to design three gearless mill drive systems for their new high-altitude copper gold project in Peru. September 1, 2010 - ABB won an order from Newmont Mining Corporation to engineer three gearless mill drive (GMD) systems to be installed at the Yanacocha Minas Conga oxide copper gold project in Peru.
Sep 13, 2006 Simine Mill GD provides a gearless drive with no mechanical parts between the motor and the mill. Stepless adjustment of the rotational speed aids optimum start-up and means that the system can be controlled in accordance with the varying demands of the material in the mill. This reduces wear, maintenance and energy consumption.
Sep 25, 2018 Commissioning Variable Speed SAG Mill Gearless Drive. The electric operation and design features of the 11,000 H.P. variable speed SAG mill gearless drive is presented. The function of the frequency-converter, control system drive and lubrication systems are described. An analysis of the harmonic characteristic in the Supply System and Motor is ...
Feb 02, 2005 SAG MILLING – Gearless drive system from ABB. WESTERN AUSTRALIA - Five years in storage have failed to affect the performance of the ABB gearless drive on a SAG mill at the St. Ives gold mine belonging to GOLD FIELDS of South Africa. The mill was originally ordered in May 1997, but shortly before the manufacturing was completed, the then ...
An induction motor fed by GE's MV7000 Medium Voltage drive is one of the latest solutions designed and offered by GE for all rolling mill applications. As the induction motor provides more availability, reliability, lower maintenance and reduced electrical distribution equipment, this solution can contribute to significant savings for our ...
Jun 30, 2014 ABB’s delivery included one gearless mill drive system (GMD) for a 40-feet semi-autogenous mill and two low-speed dual pinion ring-geared mill drive …
Jan 09, 2019 The company selected ABB’s 26 MW gearless mill drive system (GMD) for the mine’s 40 ft SAG mill, as well as other drives, electrical infrastructure equipment and a long-term service agreement (LTSA). This is expected to reduce operating costs, improve process throughput and reliability while saving energy and keep equipment in top form.
Gearless mill drive. The limitation of an RMD system was overcome by ABB when it introduced the first gearless mill drive (GMD) in 1969 for the cement industry. ABB introduced the first GMD into the minerals industry in 1985 and since then it has become the de facto standard equipment for mines with larger throughput requirements.
2 GEARLESS MILL DES The gearless mill drive eliminates ring-gear, pinion, gearbox, coupling, motor shaft and motor bearings, used within a conventional mill drive system. By mounting the rotor poles directly onto the mill, the mill itself becomes the rotor of the gearless motor. Building a track record
The SIMINE Gearless mill drives pump system significantly enhances concentrator productivity by eliminating the reducer gear between motor and pump and all corresponding maintenance. In addition, the cyclone pumps with variable speed can adjust their energy consumption to the optimized flow of pulp, resulting in energy savings of up to 30%.
The Gearless Mill Drive system consists of the ring motor with its feeding cyclconverter, pre-installed in an E-house. It also includes the excitation rectifier, the automation system (for mill and motor) including HMI, monitoring and diagnostic system, MCC’s (for mill and drive auxiliaries), differential
The sealing system of the SIMINE Gearless Mill Drives is a proven design incorporating extremely low mainte-nance with ingress protection that is rated at IP 55, and complemented by a purpose-built rain shield. The outdoor version of the SIMINE Gearless Mill Drives allows omitting the concentrator building, a considerable saving of invest-
next size Gearless Mill Drive, i.e. a 42ft mill. It is a dual design approach considering, on the one hand, the experi-ences Siemens made with Gearless Mill Drive (GMD) instal-lations over the past 40 years and, on the other hand, using computerized design tools calculating the system behavior where experience does not yet exist.
The functionality of the Gearless Mill Drive System is strongly influenced by the controller. ABB Switzerland Ltd has developed the AC 800PEC hardware family. Since 2001, the AC 800PEC controller have been released and continuously improved to meet the actual market requirements by offering a very fast, reliable and precise
Jul 08, 2014 ABB gearless mill drive, installed 2002 at the Minera Escondida in Chile ABB announced that it will supply a new 15.7 MW gearless mill drive (GMD) system for a 26 ft ball mill, including transformers, ring motor and a complete electrical room entirely equipped, to Minera Escondida/Chile.
