These diamond recovery machines are designed to sort WET or DRY diamondiferous material and are built to be used under virtually any conditions.<\/p>

Our sorters are built for permanent as well as mobile installations. Some are operating on river mining barges and others on marine diamond mining vessels!<\/p>

Our sorter\u2019s robustness, reliability, and simple operation, are all combined with high recovery efficiency and low maintenance costs. This is all backed by FLOW\u2019S uncompromising after-sales service and thus has earned FLOW SORT products worldwide acceptance in the diamond mining industry.<\/p>

Our FFXR 8\/75 \u00a0Bulk Sorter comprises 4 independent feed channels.<\/strong><\/p>

FEED CHANNELS CAN BE INDEPENDENTLY SET UP and CONTROLLED<\/strong>.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>

The sorter design allows a set of 2 channels being serviced whilst the other 2 channels remain fully in operation.<\/p>

This feature<\/strong> \u00a0<\/strong>REDUCES DOWNTIME FOR MAINTENANCE!<\/strong><\/p>

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>

FFXR 8\/75 DW<\/strong> Sorters are fitted with a FLOW SORT optical scanning system which was specifically designed to reduce yield and to enhance low luminescent diamond recovery efficiency.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

RECOVERY EFFICIENCY:<\/u><\/strong><\/h5>

Diamond recovery efficiency is influenced by many factors such as feed rate, feed material particle size ratio, feed material temperature, feed material contamination with fines and dirt, and so on.<\/p>

The total luminescence emitted by a diamond by exposing it to X-ray radiation, varies most importantly with the X-ray exposure time, with its colour and transparency, impurities such as nitrogen, boron etc.<\/p>
