Used Spiral Separators in China

Overview

Spiral separators (sometimes grouped with centrifugal separators in listings) are industrial machines used to separate particles by density and size. Spiral concentrators use gravity and fluid flow down helical troughs to split fine minerals, sands, or plastics, while centrifugal separators use high-speed rotation to force heavier particles outward. Both are common in mining, recycling, and process industries for efficient, continuous separation of solids from slurries or mixtures.

FAQ

What should I check when buying a used spiral or centrifugal separator?

Inspect the drive, motor, gearbox, bearings, rotor or spiral troughs for wear, corrosion, and runout. Verify throughput capacity, feed size specs, maintenance records, and availability of spare parts like liners, seals and bearings.

How do I prepare a separator for shipping?

Drain fluids, secure loose parts, lock or brace rotating elements, remove fragile attachments, and tag electrical connections. Use a carrier experienced with process equipment and insure the load. Note weight, center of gravity and lifting points for safe handling.

What regular maintenance keeps these separators reliable?

Daily checks for leaks, vibration and abnormal noise; regular lubrication of bearings; inspect and replace wear liners, seals and impellers as needed; balance rotating parts and follow manufacturer intervals for overhaul.
