1. ABERTURA ACIONADA POR PAINPOINT

Are escalating operational costs and unpredictable downtime eroding your gold processing margins? Inconsistent feed rates, abrasive material wear, and inefficient separation directly impact your recovery rates and profitability. Key challenges for plant managers include:

Altos custos de manutenção: Frequent component failure due to abrasion from silica and ore, leading to excessive parts replacement and labor expenses.
Suboptimal Recovery: Inefficient separation of fine gold particles results in measurable precious metal loss to tailings.
Tempo de inatividade não planejado: Equipment breakdowns halt entire processing lines, custando milhares por hora em perda de produção.
Alto consumo de energia: Inefficient drives and outdated technology inflate power costs, uma despesa operacional primária.
Operator Dependency & Erro: Inconsistent manual adjustments lead to variable concentrate grade and recovery.

Is your current equipment delivering the reliability and precision required for today’s marginal grades? O que seria um 15% reduction in energy use or a 5% increase in overall recovery mean for your annual output? The solution lies in specifying highperformance, engineered equipment designed for the specific demands of gold extraction.

2. VISÃO GERAL DO PRODUTO

O {{palavra-chave}} is a centrifugal concentrator designed for the continuous recovery of fine gold and other heavy minerals from slurry. It enhances gravity separation efficiency by generating high gravitational forces, outperforming traditional methods like sluices or jigs.

Fluxo de Trabalho Operacional:
1. Introdução ao feed: Ore slurry is introduced under controlled pressure into the rotating bowl of the {{palavra-chave}}.
2. Concentração Centrífuga: High rotational speed creates a centrifugal force field (tipicamente 200+ G), settling heavy gold particles against the bowl's wall while lighter gangue material is flushed away.
3. Descarga Contínua: Concentrated heavy minerals are periodically or continuously discharged as a highgrade concentrate, while tailings exit the overflow.

Escopo de aplicação: Ideal for primary gravity circuits, scavenging after grinding mills, or cleaning of flotation concentrates. Effective on particle sizes typically from 6mm down to very fine 10 micron gold.

Limitações: Performance is dependent on proper feed preparation (classificação de tamanho) and consistent slurry density. Not a standalone solution for alluvial deposits without screening; primarily a component within a broader mineral processing plant.
