The 50-200t/h Wheel Sand Washer delivers superior sand purification for construction, mining, and aggregate industries. Its rotating wheel design efficiently removes impurities like clay, silt, and organic matter, producing high-quality sand for concrete, asphalt, and glass manufacturing.
Raw sand enters the washing tank via a feed hopper. A rotating impeller with paddles agitates the material, creating a turbulent water-sand mixture. This agitation loosens surface contaminants, which dissolve or suspend in the water .
As the wheel rotates, cleaned sand is lifted by the paddles to the discharge chute. Fine impurities and excess water overflow through a weir into a settling tank, where solids are removed for recycling or disposal.
Integrated cyclones and filters reclaim 80% of washing water, reducing consumption to 3-5 m³/t of sand. This closed-loop system minimizes environmental impact and operational costs.
Removes 95% of clay and silt from sand, meeting ASTM C33 and EN 12620 standards for construction aggregates. The washed sand has a moisture content of ≤8%, reducing drying time.
The variable-speed motor (15-30 kW) adjusts to sand quality, saving 25% energy compared to fixed-speed models. The water recycling system cuts freshwater usage by thousands of liters daily.
The washing tank and impeller are made from abrasion-resistant high manganese steel (16Mn), ensuring 10,000+ hours of service. Sealed bearings prevent water and sand ingress, reducing maintenance .

The Sand Washing Machine features an optimized design delivering high capacity (50-200t/h), 30% energy saving, and exceptional cleanliness (≤1% silt content). With wear-resistant alloy components and only one replaceable part (screen), it achieves 5-8 years lifespan and 60% lower maintenance. Its patented impeller minimizes fine sand loss, maintaining stable fineness modulus (2.3-3.0) per ASTM C33 standards.

Modify water flow rate or impeller speed via the control panel. Higher speeds and water volumes enhance cleaning for heavily contaminated sand.
It handles sand particles up to 5 mm. Larger gravel should be screened out beforehand to prevent damage to the impeller.
Yes, optional stainless steel components resist corrosion in saltwater environments. A secondary rinse cycle further reduces chloride levels to meet construction standards.
