A complete mill lining solution

Identifying the appropriate type of lining and design is vital for optimizing mill throughput and total grinding costs, including costs for energy, grinding media and maintenance The large mills of today process high tonnages, and every minute of production counts. The purchase price of an optimized lining accounts for only a fraction of the total grinding cost, but an inferior lining can prove to be very expensive A complete mill lining solution

Rubber mill linings Our experience enables us to offer a solution that suits your needs and helps you streamline your production processes. In 1959, Metso, through Skega, was the first company in the world to develop and manufacture rubber mill linings. Long experience with the development of rubber mill linings has led to an unparalleled bank of know-how. We offer you superior designs that ensure optimal grinding and lining performance. Metso has developed grades of wear resistant rubber for specific operating conditions in all types of mills. Each grade is based on the experience of thousands...

Poly-Met mill linings Mill linings from Metso are high quality products with long wear life. The development of the Poly-Met concept led to the first patent in 1987. The Poly-Met concept combines the most desirable properties of rubber and steel to maximum advantage. This combination opens the possibility to use harder and more wear resistant alloys of iron and steel than can be used in conventional metallic linings, as the rubber substantially dampens impact forces. Application areas •• Autogenous mills •• Semi-autogenous mills •• Ball mills •• FGD mills •• Rod mills •• Scrubbers and washing...

Metallic mill linings We rigorously follow up on the performance of our designs, to ensure optimization of your production processes. Iron and steel are traditional mill lining materials, and Metso has produced metallic mill linings for more than three decades. Metso metallic mill linings are produced at our own foundries. Our Cr-Mo steel and high-chromium white irons are specifically developed for mill lining applications and are carefully selected based on the operating conditions of each mill. Liners are designed for maximum performance and minimized replacement time. The Metso foundries apply...

Orebed mill linings Metso develops tailor-made lining systems with focus on function, lifetime, and rapid installation. During the 1970’s Metso developed and patented a magnetic lining system with unique properties, Skega Orebed®. The Orebed® lining system consists of a series of powerful permanent magnets embedded within a matrix of highly abrasion-resistant rubber. Magnetic force ensures that the lining attracts the ferromagnetic material in the mill load, forming a continuous, self renewing wear layer with a wave profile. As a result, there is very little wear on the lining itself. Application...

Award-winning innovation The innovative Megaliner™ concept is a product of Metso’s unique, in-depth application experience, and understanding of customer objectives. Megaliner™ In 2012, Metso launched the Megaliner™ concept, which substantially improves mill availability and worker safety. Based on many years of experience and unique know-how, Metso has pioneered a new mill lining concept, the Megaliner™, which substantially improves mill availability and worker safety during mill liner maintenance activities. To make installations even safer and faster, Metso has also developed a camera based...

Metso’s patented Liner Positioning System uses camera technology to speed up mill lining installations even further and reduce the risk of accidents. Success case Boliden Boliden’s Aitik plant in northern Sweden was first to install the innovative Megaliner™ system in their new 38’ x 45’ AG mills. Replacement of multiple Megaliner™ sets has proven to reduce shell liner change-out time by 30-40% as compared to conventional liners. The customer greatly appreciates the comparative safety of the Megaliner™ system, since nobody needs to be in the danger-zone of the liners during installation or replacement....
