Mineral Beneficiation

XRT & MDS^®

MeiTeng XRT (MDS^®) sorters use a combination of X-ray, CCD image, UV light & fluorescence recognition, supported by deep learning algorithms to accurately identify and sort valuable ore from raw ore or waste rock——All without water.

How It Works

XRT(MDS^®) sorting system consists of several key modules: feeding, distributing, recognition, and execution, supported by auxiliary systems such as air supply, dust removal, power distribution, and centralized control. Using AI-powered recognition methods tailored to different mineral characteristics, we can provide adaptive sorting solutions. It accurately distinguishes between valuable concentrate and waste rock, and efficiently ejects waste via intelligent air jet nozzle system.

1.Feeding and Material Stabilization

Raw mineral is fed by a vibrating feeder and spread as a thin, even layer onto a fast-moving conveyor belt. This stable material flow ensures that each particle is clearly exposed and can be individually scanned and analyzed, providing the basis for accurate detection.

2. Identification and Analysis

As material passes through the detection zone, it is scanned by an advanced X-ray transmission system and CCD imaging (assisted by UV light or fluorescence). Each particle’s density, composition, and thickness are captured in real time. Proprietary big-data algorithms then classify concentrate and waste by generating an intelligent recognition model, ensuring high sorting accuracy.

3. Intelligent Sorting Execution

The classification results are instantly transmitted to the high-speed air ejection system, where fast-response, low-energy solenoid valves precisely control compressed-air jets to separate waste from valuable minerals. Tailored to different operational requirements, the XRT (MDS^®) system delivers an advanced and efficient solution for mineral pre-sorting.

4. Integrated Auxiliary System

To ensure stable and reliable long-term operation, the XRT (MDS^®) system integrates comprehensive auxiliary systems, including compressed air supply, dust collection, power distribution, and centralized control. Together, these systems provide a clean operating environment, reliable utility support, and a high level of automation, ensuring consistent performance and maximum operational efficiency.
