Capabilities

What BOXA does for your plant

An online analyser that delivers real-time grade information, integrated into the control system to improve operational decision-making.

Real-time grade measurement

Continuous elemental analysis of the mineral in process, independent of grab samples and laboratory delays.

Simultaneous multi-element

Ability to measure Cu, Mo, Fe, S, Zn, Pb and other elements of interest in a single unit, with one sample stream.

Native DCS / PLC integration

Standard communication protocols (Modbus, OPC-UA) for direct integration into the plant distributed control system.

BGRIMM certified calibration

Calibration models developed by BGRIMM Technology with validation in high-demand concentration operations.

Availability for continuous operation

High-availability design with predictable maintenance, minimising unplanned stoppages in the circuit.

Recovery optimisation

Real-time data to adjust reagent addition, flotation setpoints and mill loads without waiting for laboratory results.

BOXA analyser integrated into the concentration circuit

Online Analysis

Total metallurgical process visibility

BOXA integrates directly into the pulp flow, taking continuous grade measurements. This eliminates dependence on grab samples and gives the operator a true picture of the process in real time, enabling faster and more precise decisions.

Operational Continuity

Built for mining demands

Designed to operate in the most demanding environments: dust, humidity, vibrations and 24-hour cycles without shutdown. The modular BOXA design simplifies preventive maintenance and reduces intervention time, protecting circuit availability.

BGRIMM Technology for grade analysis

BGRIMM Technology

Proven technology in large-scale mining

Developed by BGRIMM Technology (Beijing), BOXA has reference installations in copper, molybdenum and zinc operations worldwide. Simplex is the exclusive representative for Chile, with a technical team certified in calibration and support.

BOXA data for real-time process control

Process Control

From data to adjustment: in minutes

Grade information generated by BOXA integrates directly into the plant DCS/SCADA. Operators and the control system can act on reagents, loads and setpoints without waiting for the laboratory, improving overall recovery and reducing concentrate variability.

Why BOXA?

"Every minute without grade data is a minute making decisions blind. BOXA turns the circuit into a continuous source of metallurgical intelligence."
