Abstract: The invention relates to a system and method for changing liners of a mill, the configuration of which allows the automated robotic manipulation of liners of mills for ore grinding in comminution processes. The configuration and operation of the system allows the task of manipulation to be improved, having a greater degree of freedom and/or flexibility in its movements, thereby providing a greater degree of certainty and efficiency to the method and thus optimising the time that the mill is halted for maintenance, and also preventing the risks to which maintenance staff may be exposed. The system comprises at least one support structure, at least one system for supplying and moving liners, at least one robotic manipulator system for manipulating the liners, at least one liner manipulation tool, at least one artificial vision system, and at least one control system.
