Diaphragm Pump Working Principle

Diaphragm Pump

To begin, let’s start the description with the Diaphragm Pump and its Working Principle. The name of the diaphragm pump is derived from the RUBBER MEMBRANE that the pump uses to achieve its pumping action. The diaphragm works on an air displacement principle. The membrane is mechanically pushed and pulled in and out of a […]

Pumps in Mineral Processing

pumps

The pumps in a mineral processing concentrator (plant) can roughly be classified into two groups, PROCESS pumps and SERVICE pumps. A service pump is any pump that provides a service to the process. A Process pump is one whose function is part of the process. The pump doing this type of job will be directly […]

Hydrocyclone Working Principle

Hydrocyclone Operating Principle

The third type of classification used in mining is the Hydrocyclone, commonly called a Cyclone. Unlike the others it has no moving parts and is worked in conjunction of another piece of equipment, a pump. To understand the Hydrocyclone Working Principle we must first know its components.  Beginning at the top, there is the OVERFLOW […]

Spiral Classifier for Mineral Processing

Spiral Classifier

In Mineral Processing, the SPIRAL Classifier on the other hand is rotated through the ore.  It doesn’t lift out of the slurry but is revolved through it. The direction of rotation causes the slurry to be pulled up the inclined bed of the classifier in much the same manner as the rakes do. As it […]

Rake Classifier

Let me describe a cycle of the Rake Classifier arm to you. The arm, with a series of rakes along its length, drops into the flow of slurry and is pulled upwards. Some of the fine material will flow over, the top of the rake. The rest will be pulled along with the coarser heavier […]
