Why it matters
Enduringprecision
Separating fine, free-flowing materials with varying conductivity—such as ilmenite, rutile, and recyclables—remains a significant challenge in mineral processing.
Where traditional methods fall short, the MT Carrara series excel with advanced roll designs and precision electrodes, ensuring high recovery, minimal waste, and low-maintenance performance.
Built for durability, some of these machines are still performing consistently after more than 30 years in operation. With standard and customisable solutions, Carrara separators maximise plant availability and streamline operations, ensuring seamless integration into production systems.
The Solution
Tirelessperformance
The HTR400 is an advanced separator featuring a 400mm diameter roll, designed to boost throughput and separation efficiency. Ideal for processing fine mineral sands and titaniferous ores, it provides high-purity separation with minimal waste, meeting the needs of clients in mineral sands, iron ore, and beyond.
With a 270mm roll, the HTR270 is suitable for high-capacity, precision separation in industrial-scale applications. This separator handles a wide particle size range and is effective for separating materials with close conductivity differences, making it ideal for separating minerals like ilmenite, rutile, and zircon.
The Carrara ESP excels in separating free-flowing, dry minerals based on conductivity. This equipment is particularly useful for separating coarse and fine materials such as mineral sands, chromite, and cassiterite. Its multi-stage design allows for optimal recovery and adaptability across various mineral processing tasks.
