How to maintain the flotation machine?

Flotation machine refers to the mechanical equipment that completes the flotation process. It consists of a slurry tank, a stirring device, an aeration device, a device for discharging mineralized bubbles, and an electric motor. It is mainly used for sorting non-ferrous metals such as copper, zinc, lead, nickel, gold, etc. It can also be used for rough sorting and selection of ferrous metals and non-metals. The machine is driven by the triangular drive of the motor to drive the impeller to rotate, which generates centrifugal action to form negative pressure. On the one hand, it inhales sufficient air to mix with the pulp, on the other hand, it mixes the pulp and medicine, and at the same time, the foam is refined, so that the mineral is bound on the foam and floats. To the pulp surface and then form mineralized foam. Adjust the height of the gate, control the liquid level, so that the useful foam is scraped out by the scraper. Below we will give you a brief introduction to the daily maintenance and maintenance of the flotation machine, hoping to help you in your work.

1. The working capacity and working period of the flotation machine, like other machines, are determined by the maintenance and maintaining the normal operation of the main parts. All working parts should be carefully checked every 3-4 months, and in the new flotation machine. Frequent inspections during the first few months of work;
2. In order to replace the wearing parts in time and shorten the downtime, a full set of wearing parts must be kept in the warehouse. Determine the use date and reserve amount of wearing parts according to the specific situation.
3. It is necessary to ensure that the operator of the flotation machine is given certain technical guidance or training, and strive to be familiar with the machine.
4. In order to prevent dirt and useless things from mixing into the oil, there should be a filter when filling the oil, and the oil cover should be sealed when the flotation machine is working.
5. The flotation machine can be started only after it has been inspected and contacted with the upper and lower processes.
6. Adjust the amount of pulp. The opening of the sand door is adjusted by the pull rod to ensure the balance of the slurry and avoid the deposition of coarse mortar in the studio.
7. Adjust the liquid level height. Adjust the liquid level adjuster to adjust the liquid level height to ensure that the scraper effectively scrapes the foam and avoids the slurry overflowing into the foam tank.
8. Adjust the air intake. According to the amount of pulp, the wear degree of impeller and cover plate, adjust the amount of ore entering the impeller to adjust the air intake.
9. Check the air intake. The air intake has a great influence on the performance index of the flotation machine, and the air intake is reduced by the wear of the impeller and the cover plate. Therefore, an anemometer is often used in production to check the air intake of the flotation machine.
10. Replace wearing parts. Replace wearing parts in a timely manner. When replacing the impeller and cover plate, ensure the axial clearance and assembly quality.
