Project Details

Mechanimix designed and delivered four top-entry agitators for the surge and filtrate tanks of a mineral processing plant. The tanks use down-pumping HWM-B hydrofoil impellers, rubber-lined to withstand an abrasive, fine-grained, high-solids slurry. The system was sized to run at fixed speed without a variable frequency drive (VFD), achieving full suspension without settling even under demanding feed conditions.

Results

  • Continuous solids suspension with NP-M agitators in both the surge and filtrate tanks
  • Extended service life against abrasive high-solids slurry thanks to rubber-lined HWM-B impellers
  • Simple control and lower capital cost with a fixed-speed drive — no VFD required
  • Low-vibration, stable operation with a heavy-duty bearing housing
