Sampling is a critical process in mining, industrial, metallurgical, and mineral processing industries. Sampling involves the extraction of representative samples of a material or substance, which can be used for analysis, quality control, and process optimisation. However, accurate and representative sampling can be a challenging task, particularly when dealing with complex materials such as slurries or ores.
Multotec Canada is a leading provider of sampling solutions for the Canadian market. Multotec Canada offers a wide range of samplers for different applications and industries, including mining, industrial, metallurgical, and mineral processing. Below is a comprehensive overview of Multotec Canada's samplers, their features and benefits, and the industries they are commonly used in.
Samplers are mineral processing equipment that allow you to extract a representative sample from a larger material stream. In the mining and mineral processing industries, samplers are used to extract samples of ore, minerals, and other materials for analysis, quality control, and process optimisation. In the industrial and metallurgical sectors, samplers are used to extract samples of metals, alloys, and other materials for testing and quality control. The accuracy and reliability of the samples obtained are critical for ensuring that the material being processed meets the required standards.
Multotec Canada offers a range of samplers for different applications and industries. Some of the samplers available include:

This sampler is designed for industrial and mineral processing applications that require a representative sample of dry solids or powders. The 2-in-1 sampler is suitable for applications that include cement, lime, coal, and other dry bulk materials. This sampler is easy to install and operate and provides accurate and representative samples.
The primary rotary cross-cut sampler is suitable for iron ore, gold, and copper applications. This sampler is easy to install and operate and provides accurate and representative samples. It is designed for mineral processing applications where a representative sample of dry solids or powders is required.


The RAMA™ sampler is a reliable and precise tool, specifically created to sample molten metal in metallurgical applications. It is perfect for aluminium, copper, and zinc smelters and provides immediate sampling data, which helps to monitor and improve processes. It is easy to use and requires minimal training, allowing operators to quickly understand the sampling process and the data it produces.
This sampler is designed for industrial and mineral processing applications where a representative sample of slurry is required. The launder cross-cut sampler is suitable for coal, iron ore, and other mineral applications. The launder cross-cut sampler is easy to install and operate and provides accurate and representative samples.


For mineral processing purposes, the Pressure Pipe Sampler can extract a precise and representative slurry sample. It is compatible with different kinds of ore, such as copper, gold, and iron. It provides instant sampling data that enables you to improve and monitor your processes more effectively and efficiently.
Multotec's rotary sample indexers provide a reliable way to divide and allocate composite samples with precision. By separating various grades or sources of material, operators can store feed in up to 10 or more bins. This powerful system uses a rotary pipe feed, stepper motor, and pneumatic discharge valves to ensure accurate samples. With external doors for easy access and transducer detection for bin levels, these units are essential for the diamond recovery industry.


The Multotec portable composite water sampler is a reliable and efficient solution for water sampling in any location. Made from high-quality materials, this lightweight and compact sampler can collect composite water samples from multiple locations and is perfect for field professionals. It comes equipped with an adjustable telescopic pole and sample bottles, making it easy to transport and set up wherever you need it.
