Shaking tables, also known as concentrating tables, are an essential mineral processing technology used for gravity concentration of fine minerals. At Deister Concentrator, we have over 100 years of experience designing and manufacturing high-quality shaking tables that provide unmatched performance.
A shaking table consists of a sloping deck; as the deck shakes side to side, a flow of water washes the mineral particles onto the table. The shaking motion and water flow causes separation of valuable mineral particles from waste material, allowing concentrates to be collected.
Different sized particles move at different rates based on density, with denser minerals like gold and tin concentrating near the bottom edge of the table. Adjustable features allow the shaking rate and angle of the table to be customized for each application's feed material.
Shaking tables offer key advantages for processing many types of minerals:
- Effectively separate values from feeds at relatively high densities
- Handle feed sizes ranging from 10 mesh to 325 mesh
- Achieve high grade concentrates consistently
- Recover fine minerals like gold, tin and tungsten
- Simple operation with relatively low maintenance costs
- Compact design requiring less space than other gravity separators
By improving the recovery of valuable fine mineral particles, our expertly-designed shaking tables help mineral processing operations maximize productivity and profitability.
No two mineral processing operations are exactly alike. At Deister Concentrator, our experienced team will work with you to customize a shaking table solution that meets your specific needs. We offer multiple table sizes and deck materials, variable stroke lengths and capacities, adjustable slope angles, and a range of other options.
For over 100 years, companies worldwide have relied on Deister Concentrator shaking tables to optimize their mineral recovery. Contact our team today to discuss how we can help improve your concentration process.
