Advantages

The jig concentrator(separator) is an effective gravity separation machine based on the principle of gravity-based sorting. It is widely used in the roughing, cleaning, and pre-treatment stages of metallic and non-metallic mineral processing.   It primarily utilizes a vertical, alternating pulsating water flow to stratify ore particles of different densities on the screen plate according to their specific gravity, thereby achieving effective separation of heavy and light minerals.
The jigging machine is primarily used to process materials such as placer gold, tantalum-niobium ore, tungsten ore, tin ore, and iron ore; the greater the density difference between the materials, the better the jigging separation results.

【Types of Jig Concentrators】

Mainstream jigs include: Eccentric jig concentrator (plunger jig and diaphragm jig), hydraulic jigger, movable sieve jig, saw-tooth jig, air pulsating jig, trapezoid jig.
The diaphragm jig has high beneficiation efficiency and can process coarse particle ore, separate tungsten, tin, and the like with a particle size of up to 16 mm and a minimum particle size of 0.5 mm.
The trapezoidal jig has a large processing capacity and a wide particle size range of 50-0.25 mm. It has been promoted and used in tungsten, tin, and iron ore dressing plants. 

【Key Features】

  • ‌High Processing Capacity‌: A single unit can process anywhere from several tons to hundreds of tons of ore per hour, making it suitable for operations ranging from small-to-medium-sized processing plants to large-scale mines.‌
  • Wide Particle Size Range‌: Standard models handle ore in the 0.5–25 mm size range, with specific large-particle models accommodating feed sizes up to 25 mm, thereby meeting separation requirements for both coarse and medium-sized materials.‌
  • High Enrichment Ratio‌: Effectively increases the concentration of valuable minerals; certain models achieve mineral recovery rates exceeding 92%, significantly reducing the workload for subsequent beneficiation stages.‌
  • Low Energy and Water Consumption‌: The new sawtooth wave jig reduces water consumption by 30%–40% compared to traditional models; the stroke frequency is continuously adjustable, resulting in lower operating energy consumption and controllable production and maintenance costs.

Our sawtooth jig machine adopts water as the medium and has a good effect on fine gold recovery, low water consumption, and continuous operation.

【Upstream and Downstream Equipment】

  • Before the jig saw machine: feeding by belt conveyor, slurry pump, or gravity flow automatically based on the height difference.
  • After the jig saw machine: gold concentrate ⇒ gold shaker table; tailings ⇒ sluice box.

Product Structure

【Jig Concentrator Structure】A jig concentrator (mineral jig) consists of several critical structural components, including the jig bed (separation chamber), pulsation system, feed inlet & distributor, discharge system, water system, and frame & support structure. They work together to achieve efficient gravity-based mineral separation.
【Jig Concentrator Working Principle】
The mixture of mineral particles of different specific gravities is layered by specific gravity in a vertically moving variable-speed medium flow (water or air). The ore particles with a small specific gravity are located in the upper layer, and the larger ore particles are located in the lower layer, and then they are separated into products of different specific gravity by mechanical action and water flow, and are respectively discharged.
Mineral Bed: Usually pave a 10-15cm mineral bed by using iron ore ( 50% grade ). JXSC engineer will help you to determine the bed thickness, iron size, screen mesh, and adjust the stroke, stroke frequency before delivery.
Factors Affecting Mineral Jig Beneficiation
(1) Stroke and stroke times. The stroke and stroke times determine the speed, acceleration and looseness of the layer in the jig. High stroke and small times better for coarse material, low stroke and high times for fine particle size.
(2) Water consumption. The larger the water volume, the faster the light product discharge and the larger the capacity, but the stratification is incomplete, and the light products are easily mixed into the larger specific gravity.
(3) Material layer thickness. The thicker the layer, the longer it takes for the layer loosing, thus longer separation time.
When the bed is thick, the quality of the heavy product is improved and the quality of the light product is lowered. When the bed is thin, the quality of the heavy product is lowered and the quality of the light product is improved.
(4) The size of the screen of the jig, screen mesh and shape, feeding amount and uniformity.
