Outotec is committed to keeping your investment productive and profitable. Our test facilities and extensive process background provide our engineers with all the tools to help you optimize your plant and to avoid you from running a plant inefficiently.

Plant audits

If, for example, a minerals processing plant has experienced ore body changes, increased throughput or simple wear and tear from many years of operation, process equipment can often be running below optimum level. The thorough review process covers from individual equipment to complete operating plants allowing our engineers to identify areas where improvements are required. This service consists of full audit reports and recommendations, including new specifications to achieve the desired performance.

The audit may include:

  • Observation of equipment operation
  • Review of process trends
  • Monitoring and recording of current equipment duty and performance
  • Full mechanical and structural audit
  • Re-calibration of instruments
  • Optional site or laboratory testwork

Equipment diagnosis, fact finding and root cause failure analyses
