KYF type inflatable stirring flotation machine
- Product Introduction: An inflatable KYF type inflatable agitator flotation machine that does not absorb slurry (referring to the design of Outokumpu OK type flotation machine in Finland).
- Capacity: 0.2~38m3/min
- Applications: KYF type inflatable mechanical agitation flotation machine (mining flotation machine) is suitable for roughing and selection operations in large and medium-sized mineral processing plants. It can separate non-ferrous metals, ferrous metals and non-metallic minerals. The particle size range of the selected materials is 0.3 ~ 0.01mm (-0.074mm particle size content > 50%).
- Product Improvements: KYF type inflatable mechanical agitation flotation machine (mining flotation machine) has two types: U-shaped tank flotation machine and column tank flotation machine.
Advantages and Features
- The impeller of the flotation machine is a conical impeller with blades tilted back at an angle. It has strong stirring ability and simple structure. A porous cylindrical air distributor is installed in the impeller cavity, which distributes the air evenly and combines the air slurry well. The impeller has small diameter, low peripheral speed, low power consumption, and can save 30-50% of energy. The mineral particles are well suspended and the flotation index is high. It adopts a U-shaped tank with less tailings deposition. The wearing parts have light wear and long life. Mechanically stirred, it cannot self-prime air or slurry, and the operation room needs to be arranged in steps
- it can be combined with the XCF flotation machine to form a combined flotation unit as a DC tank.
Working Principle

When the impeller of the KYF type inflatable mechanical agitation flotation machine rotates, the slurry in the tank is sucked into the space between the impeller blades from the bottom of the tank from all sides through the bottom of the tank. At the same time, the low-pressure air supplied by the blower enters the air distributor of the impeller chamber through the air duct, air regulating valve, and hollow spindle. The holes around the distributor enter between the impeller blades. After the slurry and air are fully mixed between the impeller blades, they are discharged from the periphery of the upper half of the impeller. The discharged ore flow moves obliquely upward. After being stabilized and oriented by the stator installed obliquely above the impeller, it is dispersed throughout the tank. The mineralized bubbles rise to the surface of the tank to form foam. The foam flows automatically into the foam tank. The slurry returns to the impeller area for recycling, and the other part enters the lower tank through the circulation hole on the wall between the tanks for re-sorting.

Case Study

A concentrator in South Africa wanted to purchase a flotation machine for processing fluorite ore. The requirements were: large processing capacity, high efficiency, and energy saving. After communicating with several equipment manufacturers, they could not choose the ideal model. Later, after communicating with Huston technicians, they chose the KYF type inflatable agitator flotation machine. The innovation of this machine lies in the unique impeller-stator structure and tank form. In this application, the fluid state in the tank is reasonable, the slurry is in a good suspension state, the foam layer is stable, and the operation is normal and stable. There is no need to discharge ore when starting and stopping, which greatly reduces energy consumption. The grade of the ore after separation has generally improved, meeting the needs of the plant.
