Antapaccay Copper Mine

The gearless drive system of the 40ft SAG mill has a power rating of 24MW and the two 26ft ball mills have a power rating of 16.4MW each. Construction and infrastructure facilities at Peru's mine. The construction of Antapaccay mine created approximately 4,250 jobs. It is also expected to create approximately 1,400 permanent jobs.

Literature Review: Gearless Motor Failures – A Mill …

The origins of the failure can be traced back to c. 1994 when PT Freeport Indonesia ordered its first gearless drive for their 34 ft SAG mill. The motor had to fit through a tunnel on the road to the site. This necessitated a change in the frame design from that used in older motors to allow clearance in the tunnel [8]. The next motor for ...

ABB gearless mill drive system to power SAG mill

Summary. 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. Fluor Corporation in Santiago, Chile, will act as EPCM contractor for this important project; Corporation will be …

The Conga project is located approximately 560 miles (900 km) north of Lima, at an altitude of 13,400 ft (4,100 m) above sea level. It is situated near the Newmont Yanacocha gold mine, where installed what was then the world's largest single-stage SAG mill, a 32 x 32-ft (9.75 x 9.75-m) EGL mill, driven by a 16.5-MW ABB gearless motor ...

Integrated drive technology from Siemens enhances …

In future, the 36-foot SAG mill of the new production line will be operated with a 13.5-megawatt drive. A further gearless mill drive with 22 megawatt output will ensure equally efficient and reliable driving of a ball mill with an inner diameter of 28 foot. Gearless drive systems are distinguished by their high efficiency and their low ...

Siemens modernises SAG mill gearless drive in Cadia Valley

Siemens has modernised a gearless grinding mill drive at Newcrest's Cadia Valley Operations, near Orange in New South Wales, Australia. This is the first time that a gearless grinding mill had been equipped with a Sinamics SL150 cycloconverter control. The modernisation concept developed by Siemens allowed for most of the …

Comminution power – geared versus gearless

Bordi: "We are increasing the 'tools in the chest' by offering some alternatives – for example – if the circuit actually needs a 38 ft, 20 MW SAG mill, you now have the option of a 38 ft gear driven mill. At this size gearless drive is a viable option, but it is significantly more expensive and therefore can pose a challenge.
