Attrition Scrubbers

Metso Minerals Attrition Scrubbing machines are simple, yet highly efficient units for scrubbing particles at densities of 70 – 80% solids. Two opposed Helix type propellers on each shaft force particles against each other, resulting in intense scrubbing, polishing and disintegration. Efficiencies generally increase with and increase of the density of the pulp, as particles have more frequent grain to grain contact. The twin propellers, mounted on a;shaft inside a tank, are supported by a heavy-duty steel structure. Shafts are coupled to either gearbox or spindle bearing drives. Feed and outlet boxes are integral or flansed with the tank in to the cells as shown in the photo to the right. An opening in each cell partition allows pulp to flow through the machine. Machines are usually supplied with two, four or six cells, with each cell ranging in volume from 4 to 9900 liter’s. (1cubic foot to 359 cubic foot). Odd cell arrangements are also available as custom supply.

The Metso Minerals Attrition Scrubbing machines is a device that is simple in design but highly efficient in scrubbing particles at high densities. The machine has two propellers on each shaft that forces particles against each other, resulting in intense scrubbing and disintegration. The efficiency of the machine generally increases with an increase of the density of the pulp, as particles have more grain to grain contact.
