Mineral Processing Equipment for Laboratory and Pilot Plant Testing
Ünal Engineering designs and manufactures precision-engineered mineral processing equipment for laboratory and pilot-scale applications. Our wide product range includes flotation machines, hydrocyclone rigs, shaking tables, spiral classifiers, percolation columns, and jig systems. Each unit is built to simulate industrial ore beneficiation processes under controlled laboratory conditions, providing accurate and reproducible results for mining and metallurgical research.
Reliable Equipment for Mineral Testing Laboratories
In mineral processing research, laboratory-scale testing is essential to determine ore characteristics, recovery rates, and process efficiency. Ünal Engineering’s mineral testing machines allow precise control of process parameters such as feed rate, pressure, and fluid velocity, helping researchers optimize flotation, separation, and classification systems before industrial implementation.
Flotation Machines
Our laboratory flotation machines are designed for testing mineral separation and concentration efficiency. Available in models from small single-cell units to 30-liter pilot-scale systems, these machines simulate industrial flotation circuits for gold, copper, and other metal ores. Adjustable air supply and agitator speed ensure flexibility for various ore types and reagent conditions.
Column Flotation Systems
The column flotation units — available in single, double, and four-column configurations — are ideal for studying froth flotation in fine particle recovery. Ünal Engineering also manufactures Jameson column flotation systems for advanced separation and improved grade control. Each column is built from high-quality materials ensuring transparency, durability, and precise control of air and slurry flow.
Gravity Separation Equipment
Our Gemini shaking tables and Wilfley shaking tables provide exceptional gravity-based separation for fine mineral recovery. Designed for high precision and repeatability, these tables separate heavy minerals like gold, tungsten, and rare earth elements with high efficiency. The adjustable tilt, stroke, and water flow make them versatile for a range of laboratory conditions.
Hydrocyclone Rigs and Spiral Classifiers
Ünal Engineering’s hydrocyclone rigs (available in small and large versions) and spiral classifiers are used for solid-liquid classification and particle size separation. These systems accurately simulate industrial classification circuits, allowing laboratories to study process parameters like feed pressure, density, and flow rate with precision.
Jigging and Leaching Equipment
Our single piston jig and three piston jig systems are designed for density-based mineral separation studies. For hydrometallurgical testing, we offer percolation and dissolution columns that allow researchers to analyze leaching behavior and recovery rates of metallic minerals under controlled conditions.
Supporting Laboratory Equipment
To complement our core mineral processing systems, Ünal Engineering also produces essential support equipment including the peristaltic pump for accurate fluid dosing and the vibrating feeder for consistent sample feeding. These units enhance process stability and improve test accuracy in complex laboratory setups.
