The Role Of Dewatering Vibrating Screen In Sand Production Line
Dewatering vibrating screen is mainly used for dewatering and particle size grading of wet sand in sand production line, which can quickly remove water through high-frequency vibration and inclined screen surface, reduce the moisture content of the finished sand, and meanwhile separate the particles of different particle sizes, so that the finished product meets the standard of particle size, and improve the efficiency of subsequent drying or storage. With compact structure and large handling capacity, it is suitable for wet sand process, effectively optimizing the production process and reducing energy consumption.

Today we are going to talk about the advantages of the dewatering vibrating screen in industry. At the same time, we will also show you its advantages through its working performance in the sand making production line.
First, let’s talk about its advantages:
Advantages of dewatering vibrating screen
1. Efficient dewatering performance
The dewatering vibrating screen adopts high-frequency vibration equipment and multi-layer polyurethane screen, with a processing capacity of 10-30t/h. Optimizing the vibration trajectory can reduce the moisture content of a single dehydration by 30-50%, so that the moisture content of the product is within the standard. Compared with the traditional natural dehydration method, the processing efficiency is increased by more than 20 times.
2. Energy saving and environmental protection
The equipment is equipped with a high-efficiency vibration motor (power 7.5-45kW), and the energy consumption per ton of processing is only 0.5-1.2kWh. Equipped with a three-stage water circulation system, the water recycling rate is more than 85%, and the suspended solids content (SS value) of the discharged water is <50mg/L, which meets the GB8978-1996 emission standard. The whole machine adopts a vibration isolation design, and the operating noise is controlled below 75dB(A).
3. Wide application of materials
The material particle size range can be processed from 0.045-25mm, suitable for various materials with Mohs hardness ≤7.5. The specially designed anti-blocking screen and the bouncing ball cleaning device can effectively handle sticky materials with a viscosity of ≤5000cP. The amplitude (2-10mm) and vibration frequency (0-3000rpm) can be freely adjusted.
4. Intelligent control system
The PLC automatic control system can be optionally equipped to monitor the moisture content of the material in real time (accuracy ±0.5%) and automatically adjust the feed amount and vibration parameters. Equipped with a fault self-diagnosis system, the life monitoring accuracy of key components (bearings, screens, etc.) is more than 95%.
5. Durable and economical advantages
The whole machine adopts Q345B steel structure frame, and the screen uses polyurethane + silicon carbide composite material , with a service life of 8000 hours. The vibration motor bearing adopts an excellent brand with an estimated life of 10,000 hours. The maintenance cost is only 0.3 yuan/ton, which is more than 60% lower than that of centrifugal dehydration equipment.
Technical Parameter Comparison

Through the above data, we can clearly know that the dewatering vibrating screen directly improves our work efficiency. At the same time, it not only improves efficiency, but also saves a lot of costs. At the same time, it calls for environmental protection and is also one of the mainstream equipment in the future trend.

Next, I will tell you about its application and advantages in specific industries. Today, we will take sand production as an example. Let’s follow us to learn about it.
The role and advantages of dewatering vibrating screen in sand production
In the sand production line, the dewatering screen (dewatering vibrating screen) is a key solid-liquid separation equipment, mainly used for sand and gravel dewatering, fine sand recovery and sewage purification in the wet sand making process. In the wet sand making process, after the sand and gravel are crushed and washed, they will carry a lot of water (usually 15%~30% moisture content). Direct stacking or loading will lead to high transportation costs, affect the concrete mix ratio, and fine sand loss.
The role of the dewatering vibrating screen:
- Reducing the moisture content of sand (can be reduced to 10%~15%, easy to transport and store).
- Recovering fine sand (reducing the loss of 0.075~0.3 mm fine sand and increasing production).
- Purifying sewage (the separated water can be recycled to reduce wastewater discharge).
