FLSmidth to deliver HPGRs for an iron ore concentrator in India
Reinforcing its global leadership for High Pressure Grinding Rolls (HPGR), FLSmidth has received another order for the delivery of this core grinding technology, which is known to be among the most environmentally friendly comminution technologies available. HPGRs are among the most energy-efficient comminution technologies, as they lower power consumption, while providing a more stable grinding operation and eliminating the need for grinding media.
This new order in India includes the delivery of two of the world’s largest HPGRs (3.0 m diameter x 2.0 m width). The order includes installation, commissioning and start-up support and a service agreement. The equipment is expected to be installed and commissioned during 2026.
Earlier this year, FLSmidth received orders for seven HPGRs as well as a strategic cooperation agreement with the commitment for six HPGRs. With this new order in India, FLSmidth has received a total of 15 HPGR orders or commitments in 2024. This is a clear testament to the strength of FLSmidth’s market leading HPGR technology and our best-in-class life cycle services. “This new order further expands our market leading position for HPGR technologies. To us it is a clear vote of confidence from customers – both towards the value proposition of our HPGR technology as well as to FLSmidth as being a trusted partner for delivering the most efficient and environmentally friendly comminution circuits,” comments Mikko Keto, CEO at FLSmidth.
