| ABB wins order from Anglo Platinum Swiss engineering group ABB has won a $25-million order from Anglo Platinum for equipment and services to help more than double production at a processing plant in South Africa. ABB will deliver two gearless mill drive systems to help run the ore-grinding equipment at Anglo Platinum's mill in Mokopane, about 280 kilometers north-east of Johannesburg. Anglo Platinum is the largest primary producer of platinum, accounting for about 38 percent of the world's production. ABB will also supply pre-engineering and related services, spare parts, transformers, cabling, material delivery, supervision of installation, and commissioning. Production is scheduled to begin in late 2007. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Construction News :: home page |
