Technology Leadership: Diverse Innovative Products Empower Smart Mining

As the highlight of this exhibition, the Ceramic Slurry Pump was specifically developed for highly abrasive, high-concentration, and high-head slurry transportation conditions, achieving systematic breakthroughs across three key technical areas.In terms of hydraulic design, the R&D team optimized the pump based on the physical characteristics of ceramic materials and actual slurry pump operating conditions. Compared with traditional metal slurry pumps, the pump efficiency has been improved by 2% to 5%.In terms of structural design, the pump casing adopts a composite structure combining a metal outer shell and ceramic lining, offering both excellent wear resistance and high-pressure strength. All wetted components in contact with slurry are made of full ceramic materials. The rear pull-out design allows maintenance to be carried out without dismantling pipelines.In terms of ceramic materials, the wetted components are made of reaction-bonded silicon carbide. Based on NMS’ proprietary formulation and sintering technology, the service life is approximately 5 to 10 times longer than traditional high-chrome alloy materials.

While showcasing the core equipment of its new business segment, NMS also presented three additional innovative products and technologies, together with the Ceramic Slurry Pump, forming a comprehensive exhibition portfolio covering equipment, wear-resistant components, and intelligent services.

The Smart Oil Shield, an intelligent lubrication oil purification solution making its first public appearance, is widely applicable in industries including metallurgy, mining, coal, petrochemicals, power generation, and engineering machinery. Through systematic purification of various types of lubricating oils, it effectively extends oil service life.Based on the principle of centrifugal separation, the system uses a dual-spray rotating shaft operating at over 6,000 rpm, generating more than 2,000 times gravitational force, completely transforming the traditional filtration approach based on filter elements.The system requires no filter replacement and supports oil viscosities ranging from 8 cSt to 460 cSt, while handling oil temperatures of up to 135°C. Equipped with real-time monitoring functions for moisture content and dielectric constant, it can be modularly integrated with oil quality monitoring systems according to customer requirements. Its fully enclosed integrated design effectively protects against harsh operating environments such as humidity and dust.Application data shows that with the Smart Oil Shield installed, lubricant service life can be extended by three times, while the service life of main oil circuit filters and oil supply pumps can also be increased by three times. The service life of sliding bearings can be improved by 50%.

The High-Performance Wear-Resistant Components segment featured two major product series: wear liners and MDI polyurethane anti-blinding screen panels.The wear liners are manufactured from high-manganese steel. With carbon content designed above national standards, combined with optimized alloy composition and heat treatment processes, the products further improve wear resistance while maintaining material toughness and impact resistance.Following the principle of “one mine, one solution,” NMS utilizes its independently developed chamber design software to provide customized chamber optimization solutions based on different mining conditions. These solutions effectively improve crushing performance, increase production capacity, and significantly extend liner service life.Throughout project implementation, the technical team continuously tracks operating data and performs dynamic optimization adjustments to ensure equipment maintains efficient operation over the long term.At a polymetallic mine project in Hunan Province, the solution delivered outstanding results. The service life of jaw plates was extended by 10 days compared with similar products, increasing output by 50,000 tonnes per set and improving service life by 18%. The service life of the mantle liner was also increased by 10%, fully demonstrating its excellent performance and reliability under complex operating conditions.The screen panels use imported MDI raw materials, combining high open area with excellent resilience to effectively address material blockage issues. The internal hook fastening design enables quick replacement, while the flow-dividing block design optimizes screening paths. Customized design services meet diverse requirements under different operating conditions.

The Intelligent Operation & Maintenance System has been further enhanced with a new smart monitoring function for slurry pumps.By deploying sensors at key locations of slurry pumps, the system collects multi-dimensional operating data, including vibration and temperature, in real time. Combined with 3D digital twin technology, it visually reconstructs equipment operating conditions, sensor monitoring points, and vibration data, enabling continuous condition monitoring and early warnings.The system effectively reduces losses caused by unplanned downtime and creates measurable economic value for customers.

The debut of NMS’ new business segment at the Xinjiang Mining Expo not only marks the beginning of market expansion for the company’s industrial chain extension, but also demonstrates NMS’ determination and capability to accelerate its transformation from a crushing and screening equipment manufacturer into a comprehensive system solution provider.Leveraging Xinjiang’s abundant mineral resources, NMS will continue promoting intelligent mining equipment and industrial upgrading, contributing more innovative solutions to the development of the mining industry.
