Mining & Mineral Processing

Mining measurement experts

All measurement solutions are non-contact and therefore non-invasive and non-intrusive. Installed outside the process, they are unaffected by abrasive, corrosive, dusty, or sticky process media. This ensures reliable long-term performance with minimal maintenance requirements and no impact on the process itself.

Easy installation
- No process interruption
- No modifications required
Wear- and maintenance-free operation

State of the art technology

Online measurement: real-time process information
Excellent reading stability: no need for frequent recalibration
Ruggedness: no moving parts
High reliability: high accuracy with very good reproducibility
Outstanding sensitivity: excellent results even with remarkably low source activities

Stop losing profit!

A copper mine producing 300 metric tons of concentrate daily can lose 15 metric tons per day from just a 5% density reading error. At $4.35 per pound of copper, that’s $143,822 lost every single day—adding up to over $52 million per year.

Detector retrofit program to improve your production

Especially in low radiation conditions, our highly sensitive detectors improve the signal to noise ratio, what is resulting in superior measurement performance compared to competing systems. Source replacement is costly, time consuming, and does not work towards a reduction in overall site source activity.
