The new Drums incorporate standard off-the-shelf major components, however, where requested, customised features were added to support client specific requirements. Two of the units feature a newly developed Sepro-manufactured liner that is offered as a more affordable option to traditional alternatives. Previously used in Sepro-supplied Falcon Gravity Concentrators, the liner material has demonstrated longer lasting wear resistance, reduced downtime and opportunities for all around cost savings.

In one particular case, a client had requested a redesigned discharge chute to work with its conveyor system. The Sepro team was able to identify a solution which met the client’s requirements without compromising the performance of the machine which will work with their existing conveyor system.

Installation and commissioning of all three Drums is expected to be completed with support from the Sepro Technical Service and Automation teams by mid-2017.
