Complete Guide of Gold Shaking Table

01What is gold shaking table?

Gold shaking table is one of the main equipment for gravity separation, which is usually composed of bed surface, frame and transmission mechanism. Gold shaking table can be used for roughing, concentration, and scavenging operations to separate coarse sand (2-0.5mm), fine sand (0.5-0.074mm), and slime (-0.074).

02How does the gold shaking table work?

The washing water given by the sink is spread across the slanted bed surface and forms an even beveled thin layer of water flow. When the gold slurry is fed into the reciprocating bed surface (with grid bars or grooves on it), the gold ore particles will be loosely stratified according to the density under the combined action of gravity, water flow impulse, inertial force generated by bed surface shaking, and frictional force. At the same time, ore particles of different densities (or particle sizes) move longitudinally and laterally along the bed surface at different speeds. Therefore, their combined velocities deviate from the shaking direction at different angles. Finally, the ore particles of different densities are distributed in a fan shape on the bed surface, so as to achieve separation.

03What are the characteristics of gold shaking table?

The advantages of the gold shaking table are:  

(1) The gold shaking table has clear beneficiation zoning, easy operation, reliable operation, and high separation efficiency.  

(2) It is used for roughing and sweeping, and the operation recovery rate can reach more than 80%. 

(3) When the useful minerals and gangue are sufficiently dissociated, the final concentrate and tailings can be obtained at one time. 

The disadvantage of the gold shaking table is that the processing capacity per unit area is low and the floor space is large.

04What are the types of gold shaking tables?

There are many ways to classify gold shaking tables. According to the particle size of the processed materials, it can be divided into coarse sand shaking table (processing particle size is 2.0--0.2 mm), fine sand shaking table (processing particle size is 0.2-0.074 mm) and mud shaking table (processing particle size is 0.074 mm). According to the head of the bed, there are cam lever shaking table, eccentric link shaking table and spring shaking table. According to the structure of the gold shaking table, there are single-layer and multi-layer types. According to the force field, it can be divided into gravity shaking table and centrifugal shaking table.

05What are the factors that affect the gold shaking table?

There are many factors affecting the separation of gold shaking table, which can be mainly divided into the following five aspects: gold shaking table asymmetry of motion, stroke and frequency, water volume and slope, feed volume and concentration, and feed particle size and shape.

06What are the manufacturers of gold shaking table?

There are many manufacturers of gold shaking table. And many factors should be considered when choosing a manufacturer, such as product price, popularity, after-sales service, company country, etc. Here to recommend a professional gold shaking table manufacturer – Xinhai. Xinhai can provide EPC+M+O services and has gold gravity separation cases in Ghana, Zimbabwe, Sudan, Egypt, Malaysia and other countries.
