Condition Monitoring innovations help manage wear and reduce downtime:
Hawkeye™ Condition Monitoring Systems
Our monitoring software Hawkeye™ provides complete real-time and historical intelligence of the condition of your screening media. By accurately indicating screening media wear, Hawkeye™ helps optimise wear-related maintenance and reduces downtime, ensuring your screening media reliably delivers the cut size your plant requires.
By enabling plant operations and technical teams to systematically manage and analyse wear data from the screening deck, Hawkeye™ also provides a powerful planning system for ongoing application improvement. Tracking the performance over time of the various panel types on each deck in operation assists in optimising the deck layout and panel type for each application.

Visual wear indicators
Multotec screen panels are manufactured with visual wear indicators as standard. These wear indicators comprise four or five moulded cavities in the body of the panel, spaced at predetermined depths below the upper wear surface. As the panel surface wears away, the individual cavities become visible. The final cavity indicates that a replacement must be conducted or planned shortly.
This simple but innovative system, patented by Multotec, not only indicates when replacement needs to take place but can be used as a data source to measure the rate of wear so that a future replacement time can be predicted and planned.

Multotec screens reduce pegging and blinding
The Multotec screening specialist can advise on screening media best suited to alleviate the pegging and blinding of screen decks. Whilst pegging is often related to the shape of particles to be screened as well as near-size material, blinding is related to moisture content and clay content in the feed.
Designed with functional, self-relieving apertures, Multotec screens help reduce pegging and blinding to consistently maintain maximum screening efficiency.
Research & Development
Multotec, in partnership with research institutions, is constantly developing and testing new innovations and technologies to respond to the challenges our customers face in processing minerals more efficiently, and at a lower cost. Our screening media equipment of today reflects over 50 years of innovation and optimisation in the world’s largest mining and mineral processing operations.
Used across the world’s mineral processing, industrial processing, chemicals, food and beverage and aggregates industries.
