Vibratory Equipment
Te General Kinematics Vibra-Drum Dross Reclamation Mill quickly liberates precious metals from slag and dross in either a continuous or batch process. High energy vibration breaks down material up to 5 times faster than rotary or other types of reclamation devices, and the small footprint mini- mizes space requirements.
