Knowledge of the fundamentals of mineral processing technology provides the basis for understanding and the capability to assess processes, steps and the functionality of mineral processing. In newly developed seminars on agglomeration and washing technology, Haver Engineering conveys this knowledge. The affiliated institute of the TU Bergakademie Freiberg, Germany, offers interested persons a basic seminar on mineral processing machines, a technical seminar on cleaning and washing technology, and one on agglomeration technology.


With newly developed fundamental and specific technical seminars on agglomerations and washing technology, Haver Engineering conveys knowledge on the techniques of mineral processing technology and functionality of mineral processing machines.

“We’d like to convey fundamental knowledge on the phenomena of mineral processing technology,” explains Dr Stephan Hüwel, Managing Director, on the company’s motivation behind the seminars in this field. “This is a requirement in being able to optimally lay out processes and machines that suit the material and the ecological, economic and technological boundary conditions at hand.”

The seminar on fundamentals is mainly aimed at newcomers to the field, employees from other technical fields, and managers. It involves teaching the basics that are necessary to understanding the processes related to raw material and waste management and treatment. In the seminars, the systematic interaction of material and machine is explained. The main processes of mineral processing technology and the most important machines used are looked at with respect to their construction, functional principles, fields of application and the corresponding process characteristic parameters.


In introductory mineral processing technology seminars, the systematic interaction of material and machine is clearly explained.

“The concise and targeted transfer of knowledge provides the basis for communication between technical personnel and technical managers. Entering the field will be made easier for newcomers,” added Dr Hüwel.

The seminars will also benefit the companies involved, as qualified and motivated employees are an essential prerequisite for the competitiveness of a company.
