Mining & Minerals Processing Equipment

See the problem. Call RTS.

From receiving mineral powders and reagents to conveying, screening, removing tramp metal, and controlling dust, RTS helps Canadian mining and mineral-processing operations find equipment for more reliable material handling.

Tell us what you handle, where the bottleneck occurs, and what you need to improve. We help match equipment to your throughput, particle size, moisture, abrasion, and site conditions.

Applications across: Mining • Mineral Processing • Aggregates • Industrial Minerals • Concentrate Handling • Reagent Preparation • Bulk Loading Materials we handle: Ore and mineral concentrates, limestone, lime, gypsum, silica sand, salt, potash, bentonite, barite, talc, mica, clay, mineral powders, process additives, and reagents. Ask us about tailings, wet solids, and slurry handling duties.

Empty bags and containers with less dust

Avoid dust clouds, heavy lifting, and mineral powders or reagents left in bags.

Equipment: Bulk bag (Super Sac / 1,000 kg bag) unloaders, bag dump stations, box & drum tippers, and sealed connectors.

Stop leaks at transfer points

Contain dusty powders at connections that move, vibrate, or need regular access.

Equipment: BFM snap-in fittings, spigots, blanking caps, weighing bellows, custom flexible hoppers, breather socks, and Siftex sleeves and connectors.

Move material through the plant

Avoid spills, plugged transfer routes, and bottlenecks between storage and processing.

Equipment: Rigid and flexible screw conveyors, vibratory conveyors, bucket elevators, tubular cable conveyors, pneumatic/vacuum conveying, aero-slide conveyors, and thermal conveyors, selected to suit particle size, moisture, and abrasion.

Fill bulk bags cleanly and accurately

Avoid dusty filling, inconsistent bag weights, and slow dispatch of mineral products.

Equipment: Bulk bag fillers, bulk bag loading connectors, weighing systems, dust extraction, and filling arrangements for boxes and drums.

Feed and control material flow

Avoid surges, inconsistent dosing, and gates that wear out too quickly.

Equipment: Volumetric and gravimetric feeders, screw feeders, vibratory feeders, rotary airlocks, and gate & diverter valves, including heavy-duty options for abrasive materials.

Screen, classify, and dewater

Separate oversize, control product size, and reduce moisture carried into the next process.

Equipment: Vibratory grizzly, scalping, classifying, and dewatering screens; fine screening, sieving, and liquid filtration equipment for suitable mineral streams.

Mix powders and prepare reagents

Avoid uneven mineral blends, liquid lumps, or slow powder incorporation.

Equipment: Dry mixers and blenders, high shear liquid mixers, emulsifiers, disintegrators, and dissolvers for suitable powders, reagents, and process-liquid applications.

Move process air and ventilate

Address fumes, heat buildup, moisture, dust, and corrosive air that strain standard exhaust systems.

Equipment: Backward-inclined FRP centrifugal fans, axial fans, blowers, silencers, and custom acoustic enclosures, selected for the process-air or facility exhaust duty.

Remove tramp metal and recover value

Protect crushers, conveyors, and downstream equipment while recovering suitable materials.

Equipment: Permanent and electromagnetic overhead magnets, magnetic head pulleys, drum magnets, metal detectors, eddy current separators, and AI optical belt and chute sorters for suitable sorting duties.

Break lumps and refine particle size

Reduce agglomerates and prepare suitable mineral powders for downstream processing.

Equipment: Lump breakers, hammer mills, fine grinders, and air classifier mills. Equipment selection and testing depend on hardness, abrasiveness, feed size, and the required final size.

Capture dust and clean exhaust air

Reduce escaping dust at bag stations, hoppers, transfer points, and processing equipment.

Equipment: Dust collectors, bin vents, dust collector retrofits, cyclones, filter receivers, scrubbers, and severe-duty cyclones. Wet scrubbers use water or other liquids to remove gases and particles from exhaust streams.

Know when bins are full or empty

Avoid overfills, unexpected shortages, and unreliable readings in dusty bins or process tanks.

Equipment: Point level switches and continuous level sensors and transmitters for mineral powders, granules, and bulk solids in bins and silos, and liquids in tanks and vessels.

Collect samples with less interruption

Support quality checks without relying on difficult or disruptive manual collection.

Equipment: Automatic samplers for gravity flow, pneumatic lines, and static material, matched to the material and sampling requirements.

Prevent freezing and control temperature

Keep exposed process lines, reagent piping, and facility services operating through cold weather.

Equipment: Britech heat trace cables, temperature controls, sensors, and accessories; roof and gutter de-icing systems for facility needs.

Get bins and hoppers flowing

Avoid bridging, sticking to walls, and hammering to discharge mineral powders or additives.

Equipment: Bin activators, Air Sweeps, vibrators, vibratory feeders, and live bottom screws, selected for the material and hopper conditions.

Address combustible dust hazards

Review protection where the handled material presents a combustible dust hazard.

Equipment: Explosion vents, flameless venting, suppression, and isolation systems. RTS can coordinate a dust hazard analysis (DHA) and application review with specialist partners.

Handle process liquids and reagents

Move, filter, mix, and monitor process liquids with equipment matched to the duty.

Equipment: Liquid mixers, filters, level sensors, dosing pumps, transfer pumps, tanks, vessels, and heat exchangers. Discuss solids loading, abrasion, corrosion, and temperature for slurry or reagent duties.

Coordinate equipment and startup

Bring a new system or plant retrofit into operation with a coordinated plan.

Support: Application review, equipment selection, supplier coordination, installation planning, commissioning assistance, troubleshooting, and DHA coordination with specialist partners where relevant.

Match the Equipment to Your Material and Site

Send us the material, bulk density, particle size, moisture, required throughput, and operating temperature. Include abrasion or corrosion concerns, available space, power supply, and any hazardous-area requirements.

Need dust-controlled truck, railcar, ship, or stockpile loading? Ask about Vortex loading spouts and flow-control equipment, along with integrated conveying and dust collection options.

Explore Flow Control & Loading

See the problem. Call RTS.

Send us your material, required capacity, current challenge, and a photo or layout if available. Tell us about wear, plugging, dust, moisture, or cold-weather issues so we can help identify the next step.
