John Crane retrofit helps copper mine save around 288,000 litres of sealing water per day on critical tailings pump Largest slurry seal sold by John Crane to date: 270mm Diameter India, 1st June 2026: – John Crane, a global leader in flow control technologies and a business of Smiths Group plc, has retrofitted a mechanical seal on a large underflow thickener slurry pump at a major copper mining operation, cutting the clean water needed for sealing by around 288,000 litres per day and supporting a move away from frequent, high-risk maintenance interventions on a production-critical asset. Underflow thickener pumps are a key link in tailings handling, moving high-density slurry from the thickener into the tailings transport system. In this application, the Warman 550 pump operates at approximately 65% solids, where reliability is essential and any unplanned interruption can have an immediate impact on production. Prior to the retrofit, the pump used a traditional stuffing box (packing) arrangement. In abrasive service, that approach led to accelerated wear on the shaft sleeve, with replacement required around every four months. Although the impeller and rubber liners were typically replaced annually, sleeve change-outs were major events involving a full mechanical crew working across two shifts (around 36 hours), a 100-tonne crane, and extended exposure to safety and downtime risk. John Crane designed a mechanical seal package to be installed at the rear of the pump replacing the original stuffing box (packing) arrangement and enabling a retrofit without modifications to the pump. The scope also included an adapter sleeve to suit the shaft. To support performance in mining service, the seal uses a controlled seal-flush arrangement to maintain a clean fluid environment at the seal faces and is specified with diamond-faced materials for robustness in the event that seal-flush pressure drops and solids enter the seal chamber. Following installation and commissioning, the sealed pump is operating well. The seal-flush system was designed around approximately 11 m³/h at 75 psi, with actual operating flow running at approximately 7.5–8 m³/h. By comparison, a parallel pump operating with packing has been consuming around 20 m³/h of water. This indicates a reduction of roughly 12 m³/h, equivalent to approximately 288 m³ (288,000 litres) per day, subject to site operating conditions. The retrofit is designed to align maintenance with the site’s planned annual major service interval, when the impeller and liners are replaced, reducing the need for additional intrusive interventions during the year. “Underflow thickener pumps are among the most critical assets in a mine’s tailings circuit, so customers are understandably cautious about change,” said Warren Smith, Global Mining Market Director, John Crane. “This project is a practical example of how improved sealing can reduce maintenance exposure and cut the clean water required for sealing, while supporting more predictable planned maintenance.” This installation also represents a milestone for John Crane. With a shaft diameter of approximately 270 mm, it is the largest slurry seal sold by John Crane to date.

Sachin Pilgaonkar Graces Launch of ‘Kissa Shuru Talkies’, Bringing Cinema Home to Rural India

Sachin Pilgaonkar Graces Launch of ‘Kissa Shuru Talkies’, Bringing Cinema Home to Rural India A new chapter in rural entertainment begins as ‘Kissa Shuru Talkies’ enables villages to watch new films from the comfort of their homes In many villages across rural Maharashtra, the absence of cinema halls has long forced residents to depend on nearby cities to watch new releases. Addressing this gap in the age of evolving technology, a new initiative titled Kissa Shuru Talkies has been launched with the aim of delivering fresh films directly to rural audiences. The grand launch event was recently held in Mumbai and was inaugurated by Maharashtra’s Minister for Information Technology and Cultural Affairs, Ashish Shelar. Veteran actor Sachin Pilgaonkar attended as the chief guest. The event also saw the presence of several prominent names from the film industry including Deepak Tijori, Abhijeet Panse, Viju Mane, Sameer Vidwans, Ashish Bende, Subodh Khanolkar, Priya Berde, Kushal Badrike, Santosh Juvekar, Pushkar Jog, and Vishakha Subhedar, among others. A special message from Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis was presented during the event. Additionally, the team announced plans to expand Kissa Shuru Talkies beyond Maharashtra into Karnataka and Gujarat. Kissa Shuru Talkies Home Cinema is a modern HDMI-based device that can be directly connected to a television. Through this, audiences in rural areas can enjoy newly released films without having to visit a theatre. Filmmakers will make their films available on the KST platform, with new titles being downloaded onto the device every Friday. Viewers can watch a film of their choice at an affordable price of just ₹99, making it a convenient and economical entertainment solution. One of the standout features of the device is its two patent-pending technologies developed by KST. The Family Safe Mode allows families to control and curate age-appropriate viewing experiences, while the Producer-to-Audience Video Call feature enables filmmakers and directors to directly interact with viewers across villages. The platform also incorporates advanced DRM and forensic watermarking technologies to ensure content security. During the event, the first film to be associated with Kissa Shuru Talkies was also announced. Renowned director Gajendra Ahire expressed his support for the initiative, calling it a significant step forward for rural audiences. Explaining the vision behind the initiative, founders Santosh Birajdar, Abhishek Jathar, and Shirish Shinde shared that thousands of villages in Maharashtra still lack access to cinema halls, leaving rural audiences disconnected from new releases. Recognizing this need, Kissa Shuru Talkies was conceptualized to bridge the gap while also creating a new platform for Marathi cinema. Ashish Shelar stated, “The concept behind Kissa Shuru Talkies Home Cinema, initiated by young Marathi entrepreneurs, is innovative and timely. By preserving the sentiment of ‘our own cinema’ and delivering films to households across villages simultaneously with their release, this effort is truly commendable. This initiative will play a crucial role in expanding the reach of Marathi films and connecting them with a wider audience.” Sachin Pilgaonkar added, “Even today, many talukas and rural areas in Maharashtra lack access to cinema halls. Audiences often have to travel up to 50 kilometers just to watch a film. In such a scenario, this initiative is both important and praiseworthy. It presents a wonderful opportunity for rural audiences, and I urge them to make the most of it. I believe this initiative will benefit filmmakers, producers, and audiences alike. Santosh Birajdar has been an old associate, and I extend my heartfelt wishes to him and his entire team.”
