as for the high economic values of nickel as well as the widely applications in many fields, nickel processing industry has gone well for many years. Mining equipment in nickel processing plant has been widely applied as well, such as jaw crushers, impact crushers and so on.

Key factors for nickel processing plants’ development

Because it has a good mechanical strength and ductility, refractory high temperature resistant, every high chemical stability and is not easy to oxidation in the air, therefore it is a kind of important non-ferrous metal raw material, which is used to produce stainless steel, high nickel alloy steel and alloy steel.It is widely used in aircraft, radar, missiles, tanks, ships, spacecraft, atomic reactor and other military industrial manufacturing.

As for the widely used in so many fields, nickel processing industry is very important as well. This accelerates the nickel processing plants’ development. There are some key factors for nickel processing plants’ development. The first factor is the amount of nickel ore. The second is the mining machines for processing nickel ore. The last factor is that the local economy level. This is the three main factors that can affect whether the development of nickel processing plants goes well.

Mining equipment in nickel processing plant

As one of the main factors that can affect the development of nickel processing plants, mining equipment has many different categories, such as jaw crusher, cone crusher, impact crusher, grinding machines, flotation machines, and sand making machines and so on.Nickel belongs to siderophileelement, the content in the earth the fifth after silicon,oxygen,iron, magnesium. Nickel is highest in the core of earth, which is a natural nickel-iron alloy. Iron magnesian rocks containing nickel is higher than salic rocks in the earth's crust, such as peridotite nickel is 1000 times than that in granite, nickel in gabbro is 80 timesthan that in granite.Knowing this information, it is very clearly that how to get the concentrated nickel. It should target on the rocks that contains abundant nickels. In this processing, some mining machines are chosen according to the rocks’ properties, such as jaw crusher, impact crusher and vibrating feeders and so on.

Crusher machines’ applications in nickel processing plant

Crusher machines have many different types as I mentioned in last paragraph. Different types have different models as well. Take jaw crusher as an example, there are pe jaw crusher, pew jaw crusher and so on. Every model has its own characteristics. Jaw crusher is commonly known as the tiger mouth. Jaw crushing cavity that consists of dynamic and static plates simulates the two jaw movement of animals and complete material crushing operations. It is widely used in crushing all kinds of ores and large materials in medium size in mining, smelting, building material, highway, railway, water conservancy and chemical industry, etc. Being broken material maximum compressive strength is 320 MPa.

Jaw crusher according to the activities of the jaw plate in different ways, it can be divided into simple oscillating jaw crusher (pendulum jaw crusher), complex oscillating jaw crusher (compound pendulum jaw crusher) and integrated oscillating jaw crusher.In many processing plant, simple oscillating jaw crusher is widely applied.

Economic values of nickel

Nickel in the civilian industry, is often used to make steel, acid steel, heat-resistant steel, which are often used in all kinds of machinery manufacturing. Nickel also can make ceramic pigment and anti-corrosion coating. Nickel-cobalt alloy is a kind of permanent magnetic material, which is widely used in electronic remote control, atomic energy industry and ultrasonic technology, and other fields. In the chemical industry, nickel is commonly used as a hydrogenation catalyst.In color TV sets, tape recorders and other communications equipment and so on, the amount of nickel is also increasing rapidly. In a word, because the nickel has good performance, it has become the indispensable metal material in the development of modern aviation industry, national defense industry and the establishment of high level modern system and cultural life of human.
