BENEFITS OF RPG Dense Media Powder

  • Highest Magnetic suseptability available.

  • High Cut Density while maintaining low Viscosity & High Stability

  • Lower Consumption of Media

  • High level of consistancy batch to batch - eliminates high operating variability.

  • Reduces Carbon footprint due to our low Carbon footprint

ISO 9001

RPG Milled & ATOMISED Dense/Heavy Media Powder

​

​​

​RPG Dense Media Powder is manufactured under license by Sigma Wear Parts (PTY) Ltd in the most a high tech modern production plant. Our manufacturing plant, which has received the ISO 9001:2015 certification from Dekra, produces world-class quality Dense Media Powders that meet the most demanding industry standards.

​

Optimising the ideal medium is finding the sweet spot for each application based on its

•Required Density Cut Point.

•While maintaining a viscosity that allows separation of the feed

•And at the same time keeping the medium stable.

​

To achieve the above consistently  requires a highly consistent heavy media , which we provide.

Packaging Option-1 :  One (1) and Two(2) MT Bulk Bags on Pallet

1. VISCOSITY.

•Is the resistance to flow.

•The viscosity is determined by the concentration, shape & size (Morphology) and size distribution range of the particles in the suspension medium.

•In HMS systems the lower the viscosity, the better.

Bulk Bags

3. DENSITY of HMS Slurry. (Cut Density)

•Increasing the percentage of powder increases density.

•Increasing % of powder increases viscosity.

•Thus properties of powder are important.

•Shape

•Apparent density

•Bulk density

250kg Drums

Packaging Option-2 :  250Kg Plastic Torpedeo, 1.5MT per Pallet

​​STABILITY.

•Is the propensity for the medium’s particles to settle out.

•High settling rates make the medium unstable.

•Lower settling rates lead to a more stable medium.

•Low viscosity tends to lead to lower stability.

•In HMS systems ideal is to achieve a low viscosity medium whilst still maintaining slurry stability.
