V-Tork in the Mining and Minerals Industry

The mining and minerals industry presents some of the most demanding conditions for industrial equipment, with processes that involve abrasive slurries, high pressures, and corrosive chemicals. V-Tork actuators are designed to withstand these harsh environments, providing reliable control over valves used in the extraction, processing, and transportation of minerals and ores.

In mining operations, V-Tork actuators control valves used in slurry transport systems, where they regulate the flow of ore, water, and chemical reagents. These actuators are critical in processes such as flotation, leaching, and thickening, where precise control over flow rates and pressures is necessary to optimise mineral recovery and reduce energy consumption. Their robust construction ensures long service life, even in the presence of abrasive materials and corrosive chemicals.

V-Tork actuators are also used in tailings management systems, where they control the flow of waste materials to tailings ponds or storage facilities. By automating these processes, V-Tork actuators help mining companies improve safety and environmental compliance while reducing operational costs. Additionally, their ability to integrate with advanced control systems enables real-time monitoring and adjustment of mining processes, helping operators maximize efficiency and minimise downtime.

With their durability, precision, and ability to operate in extreme conditions, V-Tork actuators are a valuable asset in the mining and minerals industry, where they contribute to improved productivity, safety, and sustainability.
