Introduction
The YTO-JT series diaphragm jig machine is a high-efficiency gravity separation equipment designed for coarse and medium-grained mineral processing. As the most cost-effective equipment for pre-concentration and roughing operations, it effectively recovers valuable minerals at an early stage of the process, significantly reducing the load on subsequent grinding and separation equipment. YTO jig machines are widely used in gold, iron, tin, tungsten, barite and fluorite mines worldwide.




Core Advantages
✅High Capacity & High Recovery
- Specially designed pulsation water flow system creates ideal mineral stratification conditions
- Recovers minerals as coarse as 50mm and as fine as 0.2mm
- Overall recovery rate reaches 85-95% for suitable ores
- Processing capacity up to 30t/h per unit, 3-5 times higher than shaking tables
✅ Wide Application Range
- Suitable for all minerals with density difference >1.5g/cm³
- Ideal for both lump ore and fine ore processing
- Can handle high mud content ores without pre-desliming
- Perfect for placer mining, alluvial mining and hard rock mining operations
✅ Low Investment & Operating Cost
- No grinding required for coarse-grained ores, saving 60% of grinding costs
- Power consumption only 1.5-7.5kW per unit
- No chemical reagents needed, completely environmentally friendly
- Simple structure with few wearing parts, easy maintenance
✅ Advanced Design Features
- Adjustable stroke (5-25mm) and stroke frequency (120-300 times/min)
- Double diaphragm structure for stable pulsation and long service life
- Automatic water level control system
- Modular design for easy transportation and installation
Working Principle
The jig machine separates minerals based on density differences through periodic vertical pulsation of water. The diaphragm generates up-and-down water movement in the jig chamber, causing the mineral bed to loosen and stratify. Denser heavy minerals settle to the bottom layer and are discharged through the concentrate port, while lighter gangue particles remain in the upper layer and are carried away by the cross-flow water to the tailings port.
