In the field of ore processing, intelligent photoelectric sorting technology is gradually emerging, and with its many unique advantages, it has brought a new revolution to ore sorting.

Efficient and accurate sorting

Intelligent photoelectric sorting technology can quickly and accurately identify and separate useful minerals and gangue. Compared with traditional methods, it greatly improves the efficiency of mineral processing. For example, photoelectric sorting equipment relies on photoelectric sensors and electronic control systems to pre-sort the raw ore before crushing, effectively remove low-grade waste rock, and significantly reduce the amount of ore processing in the subsequent grinding stage. When processing a phosphate mine, the equipment of MINGDER Optoelectronics can throw out most of the silicate gangue in the raw ore before two crushings, thereby increasing the content of phosphate minerals in the ore.

Environmentally friendly and pollution-free

Traditional mineral processing methods may produce a large amount of wastewater, waste slag and waste gas, which will cause serious damage to the environment. However, intelligent photoelectric sorting technology does not require the use of chemical agents, avoids the cost of agents and potential environmental pollution problems, and achieves "zero pollution". Taking a phosphate ore beneficiation plant as an example, the use of photoelectric beneficiation technology reduces water consumption and the use of chemical agents in the beneficiation process. At the same time, photoelectric sorting equipment has the characteristics of low energy consumption. MINGDER Optoelectronics' intelligent mineral processing equipment consumes 80 degrees of electricity per ton of traditional mineral processing, while its photoelectric mineral processing consumes only 1 degree of electricity per ton.

Reduce equipment cost and maintenance

The operation of photoelectric mineral processing equipment mainly relies on electricity, without complex chemical agent-related equipment and operations, which greatly reduces the equipment types and operation links. Compared with traditional mechanical mineral processing equipment, photoelectric sorting equipment reduces the wear of mechanical parts and reduces the maintenance and replacement costs of equipment. Moreover, its high degree of automation reduces manual intervention and further reduces labor costs.

Improve ore grade and efficiency

Through intelligent photoelectric sorting, the feed grade can be improved before ore crushing or grinding, and the proportion of low-grade ore entering the subsequent mineral processing process can be reduced, thereby reducing the load and energy consumption of mineral processing equipment. For example, in the copper ore beneficiation project, the ore recovery rate increased by 30% after the use of relevant equipment, and the concentrate grade after sorting was greatly improved.

Strong adaptability and wide application

Intelligent photoelectric sorting technology can handle a variety of ore structure sorting needs by introducing cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence and big data analysis. Whether it is metal ore, non-metallic ore, coal, or special ore such as gangue, scrap metal, etc., it can effectively improve the sorting accuracy and efficiency.MINGDER Optoelectronics' products can process ore with a wide particle size range from 1mm to 30cm, and are suitable for a variety of ore types.

Significant economic benefits

The application of photoelectric mineral processing technology has greatly reduced construction costs and operating costs. According to a study, construction costs can be reduced by 70% and operating costs can be reduced by 75%. At the same time, by improving mineral processing efficiency and resource recovery rate, the economic value and sustainability of the mine have been greatly improved, extending the service life of the mining area.

Intelligent photoelectric sorting technology has significant advantages in the field of ore sorting, and is gradually becoming an important development direction of the mineral processing industry, driving the mining industry towards intelligence, greening and efficiency.
