Descriptions:

Wet pan mill is widely used in the medium or small size of mineral processing. With low investment and high output, the wet pan mill is normally used for separating gold, iron, molybdenum, lead, zinc, and antimony.

What Is a Wet Pan Mill?

Wet pan mill, also known as the gold grinder mill, is a type of grinding machine used to grind minerals into extremely fine powder or slurries. It is widely used in the medium or small size of mineral processing. It has the advantages of low investment and high output.

Traditionally, the wet pan mill has been used for grinding gold ore, as they are particularly effective in extracting gold particles from ore by grinding it with water and mercury. However, they can also be used for grinding other materials, such as silver, lead, zinc, iron, molybdenum, copper, antimony, and tungsten.

What Is Wet Pan Mill Used For?

CFTC wet pan mill is primarily used for grinding materials into fine powder or slurry. The wet pan mill finds application in various industries. Here are some uses and applications of wet pan mill:

• Gold Ore Plant

• Mineral Processing

• Concentrate Plant

• Building Materials

• Recycling Materials

• Metallurgy Industry

• Chemical Engineering

What Are the Features of Wet Pan Mill?

1. The gold recovery rate can be more than 90%.

2. Uniform and fine grinding, the material can be ground to 1mm.

3. Easy to operate and maintain with long service life.

4. Low investment and high output with low energy consumption.

5. Manganese alloy steel roller, which can last at least 3 years.

What Are the Parts of Wet Pan Mill?

The main spare parts of a wet pan mill typically include the central driving shaft, bearing seat, belt pulley, motor, speed reducer, grinding base, grinding pan or wheel, sealing cover, roller connector, etc. The grinding pan is a drum-shaped container where the grinding process takes place.

The vulnerable parts of a wet pan mill include grinding roller, grinding base, and water basin. Grinding rollers are subjected to wear and tear due to their direct contact with the grinding materials and the grinding pan. 

How Does Wet Pan Mill Work?

The motor first drives the decelerator, then the central drive shaft transfers the horizontal shaft to move the roller in an anticlockwise direction, so that the material in the wet pan mill is ground into fine particles.

The roller mixes the material and water thoroughly inside of the wet pan mill, and the fine particles will float to the upper surface, which can be discharged through the overflow discharge port. The coarse-grained minerals will settle at the bottom and be continuously ground into small fines that reach the standard.
