Pulp Lifter

SAKAR RUBTECH’s Pulp Lifter Discharge End has been developed to encourage early discharge of coarse product that travels down the pulp lifters during each revolution. The Sakar’s Pulp Lifter improves product movement and decreases the time to exit the discharge cone, reducing pulp lifter wear and improving pulp discharge from the mill.

The Sakar’s Pulp Lifter Discharge End has been developed to encourage early discharge of coarse product that travels down the pulp lifters during each revolution of the mill. Pulp LIfter is proven to improve product movement and decreases the time to exit the discharge cone, reducing pulp lifter wear.

Pulp Lifter Discharge Ends are designed to improve uni-directional AG/SAG mill performance. Each design is customised to suit your mill size, application and operating conditions. The Sakar’s Pulp Lifter design can be fully retrofitted into an existing mill or supplied for new mills.

The Sakar’s Pulp Lifter Discharge System:

• Provides superior discharge performance for SAG and AG mills
• Is ideally suited to high throughput, high solids discharge mills
• Increases ore throughputs
• Increases pulp lifter wear life

Our one-piece Sakar’s Pulp Lifter Grates cover the full depth of the charge to maximize grate open area and mill throughput exposure Discharge grate slot analysis is carried across all grate designs to optimize open area, recycle size and product passing Large One-piece Pulp Lifter curved pulp lifters generate maximum flow dynamics during discharge of ore & slurry

Benefits of an optimised discharge end The Sakar’s Pulp Lifter Discharge End has been developed to encourage early discharge of coarse product that travels down the pulp lifters during each revolution.

The geometry of the Sakar’s Pulp Lifter Discharge End not only improves pulp chamber efficiency by eliminating pulp back-flow but that efficiency is not compromised by the higher mill speeds required to maintain trajectories and breakage conditions inside the mill as shell liners wear. The Sakar’s Pulp Lifter Discharge End can be supplied for new mills as well as being retrofitted to mills that have originally been drilled to accommodate a radial design pulp lifter arrangement. Each design is customised to suit your mill size, application and operating conditions.

The Discharge End (DE) pulp lifter is a critical component of autogenous (AG) and semi-autogenous (SAG) grinding mills, having a significant impact on the throughput, efficiency and performance of mills. Underestimating the importance of an optimised liner design in a mill can lead to back-flow and carry-over processes which can ultimately result in high wear, poor liner life and reduced mill throughput.

Installing a Sakar’s Pulp Lifter Discharge End and optimised liner design can lead to significant improvements in mill performance including:

• increased hourly mill throughput
• increased average mill throughput (fresh feed)
• increased average re-cycle load
