IRONSCAN 1500

Iron ore operations need early visibility of material variability to manage blending, beneficiation feed and product quality. IRONSCAN 1500 provides continuous ore quality monitoring using natural gamma detection, giving operators a no-source option for suitable iron ore applications.

Key Benefits

Maintain consistent ore quality and product specifications

Reduce reliance on delayed laboratory results

Detect ore variability early in the process

Enable data driven operational decisions

Support stockpile management and blending strategies

Proven Performance

The IRONSCAN 1500 is designed for iron ore mining, beneficiation and materials handling applications

Continuous operation in demanding mining environments

No contact with the material or conveyor belt

Suitable for run of mine and product ore monitoring

Supported by a global service and support network

Technology

IRONSCAN 1500 uses Natural Gamma Ray Detection to continuously measure ore quality across the full conveyed flow. The system measures naturally occurring gamma radiation within the ore and is configured for the specific material and operating objective.

Applications

Typical applications include:

  • Run of mine ore monitoring
  • Product ore quality monitoring
  • Stockpile management and blending
  • Beneficiation plant feed monitoring
  • Waste detection within ore streams
  • Grade control applications

Role in Process Control

The IRONSCAN 1500 operates as part of a broader measurement and control strategy within mining operations.

It enables:

  • Feed forward control of beneficiation processes
  • Feedback control of stockpile and blending operations
  • Continuous monitoring of ore quality
  • Improved product quality management
  • Continuous decision support for operators managing ore variability

Unique Capabilities

  • Suits sedimentary iron ores (e.g. unsilicified)
  • No radioactive source or associated licensing requirements
  • No effect of steel corded conveyor belt
  • Optional integration with a ReadiMoist TBM moisture analyser for dry basis reporting
