How A Turnkey GO-BELT® Sample Plant Operates
Stage 1
Primary Sampling
The GO-BELT® Cross Belt Sampler extracts a representative sample from the conveyor stream.
↓
Stage 2
Sample Transfer
Sample material is transferred through engineered chute systems.
↓
Stage 3
Primary Crushing
Oversized material is reduced using sample crushers.
↓
Stage 4
Sample Splitting
Rotary sample splitters divide the sample while maintaining representivity.
↓
Stage 5
Secondary Preparation
Additional crushing, splitting or vibratory feeding processes are performed where required.
↓
Stage 6
Sample Collection
Prepared samples are automatically collected into designated sample bins.
↓
Stage 7
Laboratory Analysis
Representative samples are prepared for laboratory testing and metallurgical accounting.
