Successful Commissioning in Burkina Faso

WipWare Solo system

WipWare’s Solo online particle size analysis system gives automated particle size distribution data and eliminates the need for manual sieving. This saves the company time and increases safety. The Solo system is reliable, economical and provides instant data collection.

Thomas Palangio, Technical Officer and Marty Wanner, Technical Specialist had the pleasure of traveling to Burkina Faso, West Africa to install our Solo System at the SEMAFO Mana Mine.

Thomas and Marty met with the Semafo team to go over the installation location and ensure that everything was ready and in place to begin commissioning. They took a belt cut for sieve analysis. The team calculated Edge Detection parameters using the calibration image captured.

Volumetrics was another element that the Semafo team wanted data obtained along with particle size data. So, Thomas and Marty added these values to the system.

After completing all necessary adjustments, commissioning was completed data is now being collected. The SOLO online particle size analysis system will prove to be a highly effective tool to measure material size and shape telemetry in real-time.

The hospitality was great and a big thank you to everyone who was involved in ensuring a successful site visit and commissioning.
