How It Works

Rotex’s Gyratory Reciprocating Motion

The Gyratory Reciprocating Motion gradually transitions along the length of the mineral separator, starting off as purely gyratory motion at the head, then moving to elliptical movement in the center and reverting back to reciprocating toward the end.

  1. Circular motion at feed end
    • Spreads the material across the full width of the screen surface
    • Stratifies the material
    • Aggressively conveys material forward
  2. Changing to elliptical motion at center
    • Long-stroke elliptical action
    • Enhances product stratification
    • Conveys material at high capacity
  3. Reciprocating motion at discharge end
    • Removes near-size particles
    • Improves screening efficiency
    • No vertical component ensures material is in constant contact with the screen surface

Benefits

Reduced Downtime

The combination of quick-access clamps, external drives, and no flexible connections reduces downtime by making maintenance on the mineral separator easier.

Consistent Screen Tension

Through the use of our unique screen-attachment method, the screen is automatically tensioned with each new screen installation.

Eliminates Product Leakage

Each fraction is fully contained within the mineral separator through the use of our patented Cam Lift-Rail and customized internal seals.

Independent Screen Access

The stacked, multiple-deck, tray-access design allows individual screen access, which eliminates the need to remove all decks. A single deck screen change can be completed in 10 minutes, and all 12 decks within two hours.

Longevity and Durability

Rotex drives are designed for long-term, dependable service with minimal maintenance. In addition, 500 to 1,000 pounds of abrasion-resistant liners ensure your mineral separator will withstand any application.

Configuration Options
High Volume

High Volume "Plus" Design

Designed for high-volume applications like fertilizer, minerals, and grain, the “Plus” includes configurations with increased flow inlet plenums, more spacing between screen decks, and deepened discharge doors. Additionally, we offer models that feature increased screen area and screen deck slope.

Installation
Existing structure

Existing structure

Because the mineral separator suspension system has low transmitted forces, the machine can be mounted directly to a structural steel framework.

Rotex supplied stand

Rotex supplied stand

The mineral separator can be floor-mounted using a support stand designed for a specific model.
