Impeller – The Core of the Capiro Flotation Mechanism:

Our impeller represents the latest generation in a long period since 1977, designed to maximize flotation efficiency. Through
extensive optimization of the impeller and air supply system, we have enhanced air dispersion in the slurry. This ensures a
maximum number of microscopic air bubbles, providing an optimal contact surface for mineral particles and thereby increasing
recovery efficiency.

The impeller is manufactured from a specially developed, highly durable material, carefully selected to withstand the demanding
operating conditions of the flotation process. Long-term testing has shown that this impeller is among the best on the market in
terms of overall economy, offering an unbeatable combination of performance, durability, and lower operating costs—
delivering an optimal return on investment.

Stator – Designed for Maximum Turbulence and Efficient Separation:

The stator in the Capiro Flotation Mechanism is designed to interact with the impeller, generating a powerful, turbulent flow in
the lower part of the flotation cell while maintaining a smooth, stable surface layer. This controlled flow pattern enhances
process efficiency by concentrating energy where it's most effective—the lower part of the cell.
The combination of stator and impeller creates intense turbulence, vigorously propelling mineral particles and maximizing
collisions with air bubbles. This high-energy environment significantly increases the probability of valuable minerals attaching to
the bubbles, promoting effective separation from the gangue.
Made from the same durable material as the impeller, the stator features a robust design that ensures long service life and
minimal wear. This reduces maintenance needs and supports consistent, high-efficiency operation over time.

Capiro Flotation Mechanism – Optimized for Maximum Performance
The Capiro Flotation Mechanism is a complete unit designed for efficient mineral recovery through extreme air dispersion andturbulence. The mechanism consists of an impeller, stator, shaft, bearing housing, and system for stator installation from above.Each component is developed with a focus on performance, durability, and operational reliability. 

Bearing Housing – The Heart of the Air Supply System
The bearing housing plays a critical role in supplying air to the impeller and incorporates several innovations that enhanceairflow. It is designed to minimize pressure loss and ensure a smooth and efficient air distribution into the system.Key components of the bearing housing include the seals and ball bearings, where we use the best available on the market. Thisguarantees exceptional reliability and longevity, even under demanding operating conditions.
