What equipment is used for washing mountain sand and the production process for water-washed sand
Mountain sand is abundant, easy to obtain, and cost-effective. After washing, it can be transformed into valuable construction sand aggregate with appropriate gradation, particle shape, and quality, commanding market prices up to ten times the raw material cost. Given the current scarcity of sand and gravel resources, mountain sand has become a popular investment target for many clients. What equipment is used for washing mountain sand? The specific water-washed sand production process is introduced as follows:
We recommend using a wheel-type sand washer for washing mountain sand! The reasons are as follows:
The wheel-type sand washer comes in various models, including single-wheel, double-wheel, and triple-wheel, and is a highly efficient sand washing machine. The wheel diameter ranges from 2200 to 3500 mm, and it can wash 15 to 350 tonnes of sand per hour. It is primarily used for washing, grading, and dewatering mountain sand, manufactured sand, and river sand. Currently, there are five models of sand washers available on the market, each with different capacities to meet various production requirements. Unlike spiral-type sand washing machines, the wheel-type sand washing machine addresses many shortcomings of traditional sand washing equipment, such as inadequate cleaning of sand, severe loss of fine sand, and high water consumption. It significantly increases the output and quality of finished sand, providing customers with substantial economic benefits while achieving environmentally friendly and energy-efficient production and protecting the surrounding environment, making it highly favoured by customers.
Mountain Sand Water Washing Production Process Flow
A mountain sand washing production line typically consists of sand washing machines, fine sand recovery machines, wastewater purification units, and other equipment, along with auxiliary equipment such as vibrating feeders, vibrating screens, and belt conveyors. The specific configuration of the production line depends on the customer's hourly production requirements and should be planned by an experienced sand washing machine manufacturer.
