Iron ore is an important raw material for iron and steel production enterprises. Natural iron ore has relatively fine disseminated grain size and difficult beneficiation, so needs to be processed gradually through a series of procedures such as crushing, grinding, magnetic separation, and flotation. Therefore, a reasonable iron ore processing flow must be adopted to reduce the cost of beneficiation and to expand the scale of iron ore beneficiation production.
Equipment required for iron ore processing systems
The equipment needed in the iron ore processing production line includes vibrating feeder, jaw crusher, cone crusher, ball mill, spiral classifier, magnetic separator, thickener, dryer, and circular vibrating screen, etc., while supporting the elevator and belt conveyor can form a complete iron ore processing production line.
Iron ore processing techniques
The process flow of iron mine processing plants includes the crushing process, grinding process, and separating process, among which separation process mainly includes gravity separation, magnetic separation, and flotation separation. Due to the differences in the nature of the ore and therefore the processes and equipment used are also different, but most of the iron ore processing technology needs to go through the following stages.
The first stage: crushing and screening
Large pieces of iron ore are evenly sent to the jaw crusher by vibrating feeder through silo for coarse crushing. After being screened by vibrating screen, the coarsely crushed iron ore is sent to a hydraulic cone crusher for fine crushing by belt conveyor.
The second stage: grinding
The iron powder sieved by the vibrating screen is evenly sent to the ball mill for grinding and graded by the spiral classifier. Those that do not meet the requirements are sent to the ball mill for continuing grinding to meet certain fineness requirements.
The third stage: magnetic separation and drying
Iron powder meeting the ore dressing requirements is sent to the magnetic separator for high-intensity magnetic separation and magnetic separation to remove impurities, and the iron powder obtained is sent to the dryer for drying to obtain iron concentrate powder.
Nile Machinery is a manufacturer specialized in iron ore processing equipment. The complete set of iron ore processing equipment has a very high processing capacity and reasonable price. In addition, engineers will customize the appropriate iron ore wash beneficiation plant for users according to the nature of iron ore to ensure that it meets the user's production line standards.
