When looking for versatile manufacturing equipment capable of producing granules, rotary drums are often the equipment of choice. However, confusion frequently arises in choosing between an agglomerator and granulator. Because rotary drums are flexible in design and capable of processing large capacities, they are extensively …
This weekโs highlighted resource is a project profile on a gold ore agglomeration drum. Agglomeration drums, also known as agglomerators, are frequently used in processing gold ore at heap leaching operations to improve heap permeability. In this specific instance, FEECO was commissioned to replace a …
This weekโs resource highlights rotary drum girth gears. The gear on a rotary drum in a gear and pinion drive assembly setup is an integral component, providing both structural support and rotation. As such, worn gears should be replaced immediately to prevent damage from affecting …
This weekโs highlighted resource is a Slideshare presentation on the use of a pin mixer for processing gypsum. Gypsum is widely used as a soil amendment, but it is first processed into granules for improved handling and application characteristics. Using a Pin Mixer to Process …
Gypsum, or calcium sulfate dihydrate, is a common element found worldwide. In fact, over 90 countries mine more than 110 million tons per year. Gypsumโs global prevalence is fortunate considering its versatility. It is a key ingredient in cement, plaster, and even building materials. Gypsum …
The pugmill mixer is an incredibly diverse machine, lending itself to blending, conditioning, mixing, and agglomeration processes throughout a host of industries. While a well-designed and properly manufactured pugmill mixer is generally reliable, it is not immune to issue; changes in process conditions, the presence …
When it comes to mixing bulk solids, few industrial mixers can compete with the double-shaft pugmill mixer. Often chosen for its ability to create a homogeneous mixture from both wet and dry ingredients, the pugmill mixer offers a versatile solution capable of processing everything from …
This weekโs highlighted resource is a project profile on pugmill mixers for copper concentrates. Pug mills are a critical piece of equipment in processing copper concentrates for smelting – so critical in fact, that many companies will purchase two at a time – one as …
As the world leader in tumble growth agglomeration, FEECO provides a variety of services and equipment for iron ore pelletizer plants. As the needs of the steel industry change, one production component looks to be increasingly important in meeting the needs of the modern steel …
Reports of depleted soils and increasingly nutrient-deficient crops have littered headlines in recent years. Scientists around the world are calling for improved management of soils as the effects of long-term misuse become more evident and the struggle to feed a growing population puts agriculture under …
