Separation
Non-Metallic Mineral Processing Equipment
Washing, scrubbing, desliming and hindered settling prepare non-metallic ores for downstream separation. These machines remove surface coatings, liberate fine particles from coarser material, and control the clay content that would otherwise blind screens or consume reagents in flotation. The step directly affects product whiteness and recovery in subsequent circuits.
Equipment in this category
Your decision here balances water use, energy intensity and purity targets. Small changes in scrubbing time or settling cut-point can shift the entire downstream mass balance. Testwork is essential to fix the machine duty before you commit to a flowsheet position.
High Efficiency Agitator Washers deliver intense scrubbing for tough surface contaminants; Spiral Chute Washers suit light attrition and clay dispersion; Trough Washers handle heavy attrition duties. Desliming Cones cut at fine sizes ahead of flotation, while Hinder Settlers provide sharp classification in sand circuits. The range spans from coarse washing to fine particle separation.

What decides the selection
Start with a mineralogical study of the run-of-mine material: quantify clay content, particle size distribution and the nature of surface coatings. Bench-scale scrubbing and settling tests then determine the intensity, residence time and water rate required to reach your whiteness or purity target. The downstream circuit choice, whether magnetic, flotation or acid leach, sets the final size-cut and cleanliness needed from the washing stage.
- Surface contamination of the mineral
- Clay content
- Particle size
- Scrubbing intensity
- Water consumption
- Product whiteness or purity target
- Downstream magnetic, flotation or acid-leach circuit
Technical parameters
33 models across 4 machine types, as published in the Xinhai equipment application manual.
These are standard-model catalogue figures. Actual capacity, power draw and wear life shift with ore properties, feed gradation and circuit conditions. Treat them as a shortlisting aid, not as a performance guarantee for your duty. Final selection rests on testwork, flowsheet calculation and a written confirmation from the manufacturer.
