XRT Intelligent Ore Sorting Machine for Mineral Processing
XRT Intelligent Sorting Machine Overview
Huate Magnet’s XRT Intelligent Sorting Machine is an advanced sensor-based sorting solution that combines dual-energy X-ray transmission technology, image recognition technology, AI algorithms, and high-pressure air jet separation systems.
By detecting differences in X-ray absorption characteristics and surface features of minerals, the equipment can accurately identify and separate valuable minerals from waste rocks, improving ore grade and processing efficiency.
How Does XRT Intelligent Sorting Machine Work?
Working Principle of XRT sorting machine
The XRT sorting machine works based on the different X-ray transmission characteristics of minerals.
When X-rays pass through materials, different minerals absorb X-rays at different levels. The system analyzes the transmitted signals, identifies mineral composition differences, and uses high-pressure air jets to separate target materials from waste rocks.
Key Technologies of XRT Ore Sorting Equipment
1. Dual-Energy X-Ray Transmission Technology
The XRT Intelligent Sorting Machine adopts dual-energy X-ray technology to analyze material differences caused by density and thickness variations.
Combined with image segmentation and boundary extraction technologies, the system accurately determines material position information for efficient sorting.
2. AI Image Recognition Technology
Advanced AI algorithms analyze detected signals and automatically identify mineral characteristics, enabling intelligent and accurate sorting operations.
3. High-Pressure Air Jet Separation System
The sorting system uses high-speed electromagnetic valves and high-pressure nozzles.
According to different material sizes and sorting requirements, the air pressure and spraying time can be adjusted to achieve high-precision separation.

XRT Intelligent Sorting Machine Application
1. Metal Ore Sorting
Suitable for:
• Gold
• Silver
• Platinum group metals
• Copper
• Molybdenum
• Zinc
• Nickel
• Tungsten
• Lead-zinc ores
• Rare earth minerals
Pre-concentration and waste rock rejection to improve ore grade.
2. Non-metallic Mineral Sorting
Suitable for:
• Feldspar
• Quartz
• Calcium carbonate
• Talc
Used for dry pre-concentration of non-metallic minerals.
