Explanatory notes on Mill video
View inside the mill
Taken with an Infrared camera
To determine whether the MSS HMI accurately depicts the ore angle in the mill
Human Machine interface(HMI) of the Mill Safe Start
HMI of the MSS in a control room of a mine
Graphical depiction of the ore and the mill
Explanatory notes on Mill video
Camera is facing towards the back of the mill
Top of the ore/ water mixture
HMI interface
As the drum turns, the angle of the mill and the ore are calculated and depicted by the graphical mill turning
HMI interface
At the same time the angle of the mill drum is plotted against the ore angle
mill drum angle
ore angle
HMI interface
• If the ore has not tumbled yet, the mill angle is the same as the ore angle, and
• the graph stays at 45deg
• The mill will trip
• If the ore sticks to the drum, the ore angle does not deviate from the mill angle and
TRIP
• As the mill drum keeps on turning, the angle keeps changing
• But the ore angle flattens out
