SAG/AG Mills

Metso SAG/AG mills are the workhorses of modern mineral processing. With diameters up to 40 feet, these mills process run-of-mine ore in primary grinding circuits. Metso's patented Poly-Met liner system combines rubber and metal for maximum throughput with reduced weight. Anranst supplies complete SAG mill liner packages including lifter bars, shell plates and grate panels in Cr20/Cr26 high-chrome iron and Mn18Cr2 alloy steel.

Typical Applications
