Why RME?
Fast, reliable, safe. Now future-proofed.
Since the introduction of the RME Mill Relining System, we’ve quartered our Customers' traditional mill relining times. In addition, a great many safety issues associated with manual relining activities have been eliminated.
This same pursuit has driven our development of RME's Advanced Technology suite which removes the need for crew to be inside the mill during relining – an environment which enables us to significantly accelerate machine movements and relining speeds.
For almost 40 years, we’ve worked with hundreds of mine sites globally to optimise their mineral processing operations. Our mission is to work with you to create shorter shutdowns, higher mill availability and safer working environments.
