Practical process automation for mining and mineral processing

ALS’ Process Solutions services specialise in process automation and control for mining and mineral processing plants, with a focus on improving day-to-day operational performance rather than simply delivering technology.

BEYOND TRADITIONAL AUTOMATION DESIGN, IMPLEMENTATION & MAINTENANCE

We develop and support industry-specific solutions shaped by firsthand experience in operating plants.

Our engineers work at the intersection of metallurgy, control systems and plant operations to ensure that automation directly supports production objectives. We design, implement and support:

  • advanced process control and optimisation systems
  • plant data historians and operational reporting
  • control system architectures that are designed to be stable, secure and maintainable

Our solutions are scalable and intentionally practical. They are designed to reduce variability, improve visibility and make plant behaviour more predictable for both operators and metallurgists.

As demand for critical minerals increases and operational margins tighten, consistent and efficient production becomes essential. We support our clients by helping stabilise existing operations, accelerate performance in new projects and deliver systems that continue to add value long after commissioning.

We apply modern control and data analytics techniques where they can deliver clear operational benefit, not for novelty, but to solve specific production problems.

Our team combines deep knowledge of mineral processing operations with advanced process control, data analytics and modelling techniques. This enables us to identify the root causes of instability, poor recovery or constrained throughput, and to apply solutions that are practical to operate and maintain.

Where appropriate, we use advanced methods such as multivariable control, data-driven modelling and machine learning to support better control strategies, faster decision-making and more stable plant operation. These tools are always implemented with transparency for operators and aligned with metallurgical intent.

Our focus is on helping deliver measurable improvements in performance and reliability, using innovation as a means to an end, not the end in itself.

Reliable operations depend on timely, competent support when issues arise. Our Perth-based control systems engineering team provides direct technical support for process control, instrumentation, PLC, SCADA and electrical systems, both on-site and remotely.

Support is delivered by the same engineers who design and implement our systems, helping ensure a deep understanding of your plant, control philosophy and operating constraints. This enables faster fault diagnosis, practical corrective action and reduced disruption to production.

We work with site teams to resolve immediate issues, prevent recurrence and strengthen system robustness over time, supporting stable operations rather than reactive firefighting.
