Abstract

Digitalization has been of interest over the last few years in the mining and mineral processing industry. Many recognize digitalization as a possible solution to enhance safety and sustainability, reduce costs and improve operational efficiency. However, the path has not been easy; much foundational work still needs to be done and the degree of market collaboration needs to be increased. This paper focuses on the practical aspects of digitalization using slurry pumps, a simple and common machine used in the mining and mineral processing industry. This paper provides a reflective overview on innovation, field case examples, current development works, and lessons learned in the process.
