What Is Gravity Separator?

Firstly, we need to know what gravity separation is. In gravity separation, mineral particles are separated from each other by the difference of relative density, particle sizes, shapes and differenct moving speed and direction of the medium (water, air or other relatively high density liquid). Gravity separators are the separation machine that carry out the garvity separation method.

The gravity separation and gravity separator is widely used in the beneficiation of coal, non-ferrous metals, precious metals, precious metals ore or used for mineral processing of asbestos, diamond and other non-metallic ores. In order to improve the separation efficiency of fine materials, centrifugal force field spiral chute, centrifuges, cyclones and other gravity separators also used in gravity separation, among which Jigging is an older, yet still effective, gravity separation technique that achieves separation down to 150 micrometers. The product processed by the Gravity Separator is separated into layers with different specific weight according to the “fluid bed” principle.  

Nowdays, jig concentrator is a good gravity separator for gravity separation. Forui provides variety of gravity separators such as jig concentrator AM, jig concentrator LTP and movable sieve jig concentrator, which can be used as separation machine for many kinds ores like iron, gold, manganese, tin, barite, chromite, etc. Free separation test can be done with our gravity separators if samples are available from you.
