The 5 Biggest Measurement Challenges in Mining (and How to Fix Them)

Learn to solve the 5 biggest measuring mistakes mining processing operators make and explore the sensing technology available now to avoid making these same mistakes in your operation.

About this event

Mining processing teams are under pressure to lift throughput, improve yield and reduce downtime – all whilst keeping safety of their people as number one priority and cost at a minimum. In our experience of supporting over 3000 mines globally with their instrumentation needs, many are still battling unreliable measurements in the toughest parts of the process. In this webinar, we’ll break down the most common (and costly) measurement challenges seen across mining operation: from slurry flow and abrasive services to dusty level applications, density control, and analytical measurements that drift when conditions change.

You’ll learn why these failures happen, how to diagnose the root cause (not just the symptom), and practical, field proven fixes spanning installation, technology selection, device configuration, and maintenance routines. The session is designed to be technical, practical, and immediately useful, with time for live Q&A at the end.
