45+ Years of Global Crushing Experience is Coming to Canada!
If there’s one thing everyone in the crushing industry can agree on, it’s that nothing stays the same for long. Every year brings new materials, tighter production targets, regulation changes and tougher conditions. The only way to stay ahead is to keep learning, keep adapting, and keep improving how we work.
This January, operators, engineers, and foremen across Canada will have the chance to do exactly that. Alan Fletcher, one of the most respected crushing and screening instructors in the world, is bringing his 45 years of hands-on experience to Canada for a two-day Crushing & Screening Master Class.
Why should you attend?
Alan’s training is built on real-world knowledge. He started his career as a plant fitter in South Africa, spent 19 years with Metso, and went on to found Opsmin, a global training and consulting company focused on improving plant performance and workforce skills. His approach combines decades of technical experience with a deep understanding of how plants actually run day to day.
During the two-day session, Alan will walk through practical lessons that can be applied immediately in the field. Attendees will walk away with:
- Mastery of rock classification and test data interpretation
- Knowledge of how to balance reduction ratios and feed parameters
- Correct liner selection and feeding practices
- Capable of balancing material across circuits
- Proper screening and feed control techniques
- The knowledge on how to diagnose low screening efficiency
- The ability to mathematically design or validate screen setups
- Techniques to match different screens to each application
- & more.
The ultimate goal: help operators and engineers understand what’s really happening inside the plant and how small adjustments can lead to major improvements in uptime and tonnage.
Participants will walk away with skills they can use right away, such as how to extend liner and wear part life, increase production, reduce recirculation, and identify screening inefficiencies. They will also learn how to use rock test data to improve or design new plant setups, and how to troubleshoot problems with confidence.
This seminar is an opportunity to invest in your team and your operation. The lessons shared are drawn from decades of field experience across mines, quarries, and processing plants around the world. It’s about taking proven global knowledge and applying it to Canadian conditions.
As the new year begins, this event offers the chance to refocus, refresh, and bring new ideas to your operation. Whether you are running a single spread or managing multiple sites, the insights from this master class can help your team make smarter decisions, reduce wear and downtime, and improve overall plant performance.
