Spiral chute: Highly efficient and accurate re-sorting, unlocking mineral wealth

#Industry ·2026-02-25

In today's era of increasingly scarce mineral resources and ever-increasing demands for mineral processing, efficient and environmentally friendly mineral processing technologies have become particularly important. The spiral chute, as a classic gravity separation equipment, shines in many mineral separation fields with its unique advantages, becoming an indispensable component of modern mineral processing plants. Working Principle: A Sophisticated Combination of Gravity and Hydraulic Forces The spiral chute utilizes the differences in specific gravity, particle size, and shape of mineral particles to achieve effective separation of light and heavy minerals within the spiral chute through the combined action of water flow, gravity, centrifugal force, and friction. The input slurry enters the spiral chute from the top and flows down the chute under the force of gravity. Due to the combined effects of the chute's inclination angle and water flow, minerals with higher specific gravity settle faster, more easily forming deposits at the bottom of the chute and being carried away by the inner water flow, while lighter minerals are washed away by the outer water flow. By adjusting the feed concentration, water volume, and product interception position, useful minerals and gangue can be precisely separated. Core Advantages: Why Choose a Spiral Chute? 1. High-Efficiency Mineral Processing with High Recovery Rates: - Excellent enrichment effect for fine-grained minerals (especially ultrafine particles), which can effectively improve the recovery rate of useful minerals and reduce resource waste. 2. Energy-Efficient and Environmentally Friendly, Green Mineral Processing: - No power drive required, no electricity consumption, and extremely low operating costs. The mineral processing process does not require the addition of chemical reagents, with no pollutant emissions, making it a truly green and environmentally friendly mineral processing tool that aligns with the concept of sustainable development. 3. Simple Structure and Easy Operation and Maintenance: - No moving parts, low failure rate, compact structure, and simple installation, commissioning, operation, and daily maintenance, making it easy for workers to use and greatly reducing labor costs and downtime risks. 4. Small Footprint and High Processing Capacity: - Compact equipment structure, effective space saving, and high processing capacity, particularly suitable for small and medium-sized mines and mineral processing plants. 5. Low Investment and Operating Costs: - Compared with other mineral processing equipment, the initial investment and operating and maintenance costs of spiral chutes are very low, bringing significant economic benefits to enterprises. 6. Wide Application Range: - Widely used in the separation of various black and non-metallic minerals, including iron ore, tungsten-tin ore, tantalum-niobium ore, gold ore, titanium iron ore, chromite, zircon, monazite, and rutile, with particular advantages in the separation of fine-grained minerals in coastal, riverbed, alluvial, and vein deposits. Application Prospects: Helping You Open a New Chapter in Mineral Industry With its excellent performance and unique advantages, the spiral chute has become an indispensable important equipment for modern mineral processing plants. It is not only an ideal choice for improving mineral recovery rates and reducing production costs, but also a key technology for achieving green mine and sustainable development. Choosing a spiral chute is choosing an efficient, economical, and environmentally friendly path for mineral enrichment. We are committed to providing you with high-quality spiral chute equipment and professional mineral processing solutions, helping you achieve greater success in mineral development!
