Meeting the challenges of critical mineral and REE handling
Global demand is ramping up quickly for rare-earth elements (REE) and other critical minerals. Reliability and availability are paramount, and it’s essential to maintain product integrity and purity of these highly valuable metals and minerals. How can mining operations optimise minerals and metals conveying when the powders, granules and flakes are sensitive to environment and easily contaminated?
An aero-mechanical conveyor (AMC) using FloDisc® Technology is a rapid, gentle, and safe way to transfer rare-earth metals and critical minerals. Our tubular drag conveyor (TDC) is ideal for complex routes and multiple discharge points. Floveyor’s fully enclosed designs are engineered to mitigate the risk of contamination and maximise uptime and availability. Floveyor conveying systems require little maintenance and provide total batch transfers with negligible residue. Floveyor delivers reliably high throughputs without damaging the delicate structure of REEs and critical minerals.

Dosing Screw Feeder
Dosing Screw Feeders (DSF) are designed to accurately meter or dose bulk material.
AMC Screw Feeder
Aero-Mechanical Screw Feeders (ASF) are designed specifically to feed bulk material into a Floveyor aeromechanical conveyor (AMC).
FIBC Unloading Screw Feeder
FIBC Unloading Screw Feeders are designed specifically to unload either disposable or reusable Flexible Intermediate Bulk Containers (FIBCs).
Reusable FIBC Unloader
Reusable FIBC Unloaders are designed to safely and reliably unload reusable (multi-trip) Flexible Intermediate Bulk Containers (bulk bags).
Disposable FIBC Unloader
Disposable FIBC Unloaders are designed specifically to decant disposable (single-trip) flat bottom FIBCs.
Trough Screw Feeder
Trough Screw Feeders (TSF) are suitable for installs that require feeder metering from multiple sources to a single discharge.
Rotary Lump Breaker
The Rotary Lump Breaker (RLB) is designed for the simple deagglomeration of compacted material into smaller particles.
Bi-Directional AMC
The Bi-Directional AMC operates in either direction, discharging to one of two paths, without diminishing maximum throughputs.
Reusable FIBC Tanker Loader
Suitable for FIBC and sea container decanting, the Reusable FIBC Tanker Loader provides a small, mobile solution for loading road tankers.
Disposable FIBC Tanker Loader
The Disposable FIBC Tanker Loader is a robust, modular solution for decanting disposable (single-trip) flat bottom FIBCs.
FIBC Tanker Loader with Dust Extraction
The Disposable FIBC Tanker Loader with Dust Extraction features an integrated dust collector for rapid high-volume decanting.
