Danish mining equipment company FLSmidth has received an order to supply HPGR for a new iron ore concentrator in India.

The order includes installation, commissioning and start-up support, as well as a service agreement for the equipment.

FLSmidth will deliver two HPGR units to the unnamed client, with the expectation that the equipment will be installed and commissioned by 2026.

The order's value has not been revealed by the company.

This latest order contributes to the company's growing list of HPGR commitments, bringing the total to 15 for the current year.

The company's HPGR technology is said to be the most energy-efficient option available in the market, a factor that may have contributed to its selection for the India order.

Earlier this year, FLSmidth secured orders for seven HPGRs, along with a strategic cooperation agreement that included a commitment for an additional six units.

FLSmidth CEO Mikko Keto said: “This new order further expands our market-leading position for HPGR technologies.

“I am obviously very pleased about this. 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.”

In 2021, FLSmidth agreed to acquire TK Mining, the mining technologies arm of German engineering company Thyssenkrupp Industrial Solutions.

TK Mining offered solutions for mining systems, material handling, mineral processing, as well as related services.
