In this post, we are talking about flotation units.

Today, we are going to cover 3 merits of the flotation unit composed of KYF flotation machine and XCF flotation machine.

  1. Realize the horizontal installation and reduce the capital construction

  2. Reduce the energy consumption and damage of flotation machine

  3. Improve the processing effect with special construction structure 

Let's dive in!

KYF flotation machine

Flotation unit composed by the KYF flotation machine and XCF flotation machine can improve the stair configuration of KYF flotation machine, and save the cost of forth pumps. It not only provides a new way to choose flotation machine for the new mineral processing plant, but also provides the economic and easy way for old mineral processing plant. So, what are the advantages of the flotation unit composed of KYF flotation machine and XCF flotation machine?

1. Realize the horizontal installation and reduce the capital construction

According to the requirement of ordinary mineral processing plant, the roughing, scavenging, and concentrating flotation need 5 stairs for KYF flotation machine. It needs altitude intercept in 2m, which high increases investment costs. If combining the two types of flotation machine,they can be installed on the horizontal level and reducing the capital construction cost.

2. Reduce the energy consumption and damage of flotation machine

Besides, horizontal installation can reduce the energy up to 20%. KYF flotation machine has a low consumption. The flotation consumption is increased by forth pump. For example, 10 KYF flotation machines of 16 cubic meters and 5 KYF flotation machines of 8 cubic meters, 4,2 and 1 4vr-vf, 6rv-af and 8rv-af foam pumps were used in a processing plant,with the total installed power of 650kw. XCF flotation machine was added in the later reconstruction, and KYF flotation machine of 16 cubic meters was changed into plane configuration, with the installed power of 445kw.

When KYF flotation machine is using alone,the wear degree is 3 to 6 times of flotation machine for the ladder configuration needs to be equipped with foam pump when the mine returns. Due to high rotation speed, high line speed, fast wear of impeller and pump shell,etc. Moreover, the foam pump maintenance group should be added in the maintenance and repair operation. The KYF flotation machine is used in combination with XCF flotation unit. After horizontal configuration, the foam pump is removed, which can improve the overall operation rate of the separation plant and avoid various disadvantages caused by the foam pump.

3. Improve the processing effect with special construction structure 

Although both KYF flotation machine and XCF flotation machine adopt u-shaped section, KYF flotation machine has no upper blade suction, while XCF flotation machine has upper blade suction. Combined use of the two, it can use XCF flotation machine blade to complete suction to ore and medium ore operations, improving the overall efficiency of ore dressing.

The combination of the two flotation machines can also do single-wall backward leaning blade design, which can enlarge the contact surface between the blade and pulp, and form a strong stirring capacity at a low speed, which is conducive to promoting pulp dispersion, improvin grestart capacity and reducing “flower turning” degree.

Conclusion

In a word, combined with XCF flotation machine,KYF flotation machine can reduce equipment management and maintenance operations, reduce system energy consumption, reduce investment cost, improve mineral processing efficiency.
