Stabilize Throughput Before It Hurts Recovery
NTWIST detects early signs of circuit drift using real-time data and predictive models - giving your team a chance to act before recovery or efficiency drops.

Problems We Solve in Throughput Stabilization
The Challenge
Minor shifts in hardness, float size, or oxygen efficiency can trigger major performance losses. Most plants detect the impact only after recovery has already suffered.
Our Approach
NTWIST connects real-time process signals with predictive models to flag instability across grinding, flotation, and energy use. Operators get early warnings and guidance to correct drift before it cuts into throughput or recovery.
From Drift to Stability → Automatically
NTWIST uses predictive monitoring and adaptive feedback to catch early signs of circuit instability - so you stay ahead of variability, not behind it.
Early Drift Detection
Spot trends like load, feed rates, and torque changes in real time - before they impact throughput or recovery.
Flotation Feedback Loops
Enhance flotation performance with real-time AI-powered froth image analysis, air rate modeling, and reagent benchmarks.
Adaptive Control Recommendations
Tune setpoints, reagent dosing, and flow rates with model-backed recommendations - just before things spiral.
Real-Time Performance Benchmarks
Compare performance metrics against similar circuits to detect anomalies and set realistic targets.
Soft Sensors for Hard Data
Close data gaps with virtual sensors that reveal hidden issues - no new hardware required.
Seamless System Integration
Link SCADA, DCS, Historian, PI, and lab systems into a unified feedback layer - built for retrofitting.
Stay Stable. Stay Ahead.
NTWIST detects variability before your team sees it - helping you stabilize performance without overcorrecting.
Unstable grinding and flotation processes lead to drift, energy waste, and lost recovery. NTWIST monitors real-time signals to detect early signs of process disruption and recommends corrective actions before they impact output.

Built to Fit Your Stack
No rip-and-replace needed. NTWIST integrates seamlessly with your existing systems - even the custom ones.
Chosen by Mining and Processing Leaders Who Demand Results
From gold miners to downstream refiners, NTWIST gives industrial teams control over their data - and their margins.
By highlighting performance gaps and surfacing new benchmarks, NTWIST is giving our team the clarity needed to move beyond intuition and toward measurable improvement. We're now in a stronger position to define and pursue the next phase of operational excellence.
Having NTWIST independently validate our stockpile model gave us added confidence that our current estimates are sound, and that we’re well-positioned for the transition to stockpile-only operations.
NTWIST’s AI model increased potential profit in 42% of operating hours and corrected off-target conditions in another 17%. With further refinement, even greater stability and profit gains are expected.
We saw NTWIST’s platform as a strong fit for Clydach because it could improve process consistency without requiring disruptive infrastructure upgrades.

Frequently asked questions
NTWIST detects early signs of drift and variability, then recommends corrective actions across grinding, flotation, and feed rate - all before performance takes a hit.
No. NTWIST uses soft sensors to infer performance gaps where instrumentation is limited. We work with what you have - no new hardware required.
Most sites see 10–20% better grind compliance, reduced downtime, and measurable recovery gains tied to more stable operation.
Not at all. NTWIST surfaces insights and recommendations - your operators stay in control. We support decision-making, not override it.
Yes. By stabilizing process conditions, energy and reagent use naturally decrease - often leading to measurable cost savings.
NTWIST integrates with SCADA, DCS, OSIsoft PI, PLCs, and most plant historians. It’s built for compatibility, not disruption.
Most plants are up and running within 60–90 days. We focus on lightweight integration and fast time to value.
