In the mining industry, accurately measuring the density of slurries and suspensions is crucial for efficient process control and resource management. Berthold Technologies, based in Bad Wildbad, Germany, provides innovative solutions for this critical need, with its advanced density measurement systems offering unparalleled precision and reliability, crucial for optimising the processing of ores and minerals.

Berthold's non-contact measurement technology, which employs gamma radiation, allows for continuous, real-time monitoring without interrupting the production process. This method is particularly beneficial in the harsh environments typical of mining operations, where traditional contact methods can be prone to wear and frequent maintenance. By ensuring consistent and accurate density readings, Berthold's systems help in maintaining the optimal slurry concentration, leading to improved recovery rates and reduced operational costs​.

A key feature of Berthold's solutions is their ability to operate under extreme conditions, including high pressures and temperatures, which are common in mining. The systems are also designed to resist contamination and buildup, further enhancing their durability and reliability over long periods. This robustness is essential for minimising downtime and maintaining continuous operation, which is a significant advantage in the highly competitive mining sector.

Moreover, Berthold's user-friendly interface and advanced diagnostic capabilities make it easier for operators to integrate and manage these systems within existing mining infrastructures. The data provided by these systems can be seamlessly integrated with other control systems, facilitating comprehensive process monitoring and optimisation​.

Berthold’s density measurement solutions offer a sophisticated and dependable approach to managing slurry densities in the mining industry, says the group’s Southern African business partner, Mecosa.

The Gauteng-based instrumentation engineering firm, which has cooperated with Berthold for more than 40 years, states that the German group’s commitment to precision, durability and ease of use makes its density measuring solutions a preferred choice for mining operations aiming to enhance efficiency and productivity.
