Mechanical Air Separators
Williams Mechanical Air Separators are designed to make separations of materials by particle size or shape, or of different specific gravities. These Air Separators, or Air Classifiers, are proven to be outstanding equipment of their type – in efficiency, capacity, design, and construction.
Here are some of the features of Williams superior Mechanical Air Separators:
- No gears
- Single or double spinner blades
- Only two bearings
- Large feed opening
- Liners for abrasive materials
- Steeper cones for faster discharge
Typical Applications of Williams Mechanical Air Separators:
Increases Grinding Unit Capacity: When operating grinding mills in closed circuit with Williams Mechanical Air Separators, the finished material is removed from the circuit as fast as it is made. This leaves the grinding unit free to work on unground material.
Positive Control of Product Fineness: A Williams Mechanical Air Separator assures proper product fineness. Only material of satisfactory fineness is discharged as the fine fraction, and all oversize is returned for regrinding.
Superior to Screens for Fine Separations: Generally, any separation finer than 20 or 30 mesh can best be accomplished by air separation. The fineness delivered by air separation is constant and is not affected by breakage of delicate fine mesh screens. An air separator also eliminates the frequent replacement of screen wire. The capacity per square foot of fine screens is relatively low; large tonnages of fine material can only be economically separated by air.
AIR CLASSIFIERS & TURBINE SEPARATORS
Air classifiers separate materials based on shape, size, and density and are most commonly used in an industrial process involving mixed materials that need to be separated quickly. For example, in recycling centers, an air classifier can sort through metal, paper, and plastics that arrive mixed together.
Air classification is the most effective and efficient means of separating material from a stream that needs to be sorted or for increasing productivity when it’s used with a pulverizing machine or other size reduction machine.
Whatever your specific application is, the Williams Patent Crusher Air Classifiers and Turbine Separators are powerful enough to get the job done right.
