The speed of a small ore gold mining machine can vary depending on the type of machine and its specific function. Here are some common types of small gold mining equipment and their typical operating speeds:
1. Gold Trommel (Rotary Screen)
– Speed: Usually between 10–30 RPM (revolutions per minute).
– Purpose: Separates gold-bearing material from waste using a rotating drum.
2. Gold Centrifuge (Knelson Concentrator, Falcon Concentrator)
– Speed: Typically operates at 60–120 RPM for batch models.
– High-G models may spin at 1,000+ RPM for enhanced gold recovery.
3. Jig Machine (Mineral Jig)
– Pulsation Speed: Around 100–300 strokes per minute, depending on feed material.
– Used for gravity separation of gold from sand/gravel.
4. Shaker Table (Wilton Table)
– Vibration Speed: Approximately 250–300 RPM.
– Helps separate fine gold particles from concentrates.
5. Small Ball Mill or Hammer Mill (for Crushing Ore)
– Rotational Speed: Around 50–80% of critical speed (typically 20–70 RPM for a small ball mill).
– Used to grind ore into finer particles before processing.
Factors Affecting Speed:
– Feed material size and density
– Desired recovery efficiency
– Machine size and power
