Washing equipment is an important equipment used to separate and clean ores in mining and beneficiation processes. Here are some commonly used types of washing equipment:
1. Jigger: Utilizes the combined action of water flow and mechanical vibration to separate mineral particles of different densities. Suitable for rough selection and selection operations.
2. Flotation machine: By adding chemicals to the pulp, the target mineral particles are attached to the bubbles, and then float to the surface of the pulp to form a foam layer to achieve mineral separation. Widely used in the beneficiation of various metal and non-metal minerals.
3. Magnetic separator: uses magnetic field force to separate minerals. According to the different magnetic field strength and magnetic field type, it can be divided into dry and wet magnetic separators. Suitable for beneficiation of magnetic minerals such as iron ore, manganese ore, chrome ore, etc.
4. Gravity sorting equipment: including spiral chute, shaker, centrifugal concentrator, etc. Through the movement difference of mineral particles in the gravity field, the separation of minerals is realized. Suitable for mineral processing of gold, tin, tungsten and other minerals.
5. Washing machine: mainly used to clean the mud and impurities on the surface of the ore to improve the quality of the ore. Common washing machines include drum washing machines, trough washing machines, etc.
6. Dewatering screen: used to remove moisture from the pulp and increase the concentration of minerals. Common dewatering screens include high-frequency vibrating screens, linear vibrating screens, etc.
7. Screening equipment: including circular vibrating screen, linear vibrating screen, probability screen, etc. Mainly used for ore classification and screening to meet mineral products with different particle size requirements.
These washing equipment cooperate with each other in the beneficiation process to complete the separation, cleaning and grading of minerals, so as to improve the grade and collection rate of ore.
