There are two major pain points in the sand making industry: high moisture content and low screening efficiency. In the past, traditional screening equipment could not meet the needs of dehydration and screening at the same time, resulting in the industry: the finished sand moisture content is too high, the loss of fine sand is serious, the equipment wears quickly, and the production cost remains high. However, the emergence of dewatering vibrating screen has solved these two major problems. This article will introduce the working principle, steps and applications of dewatering vibrating screen in sand making industry in different industries.

Working principle and dehydration steps

The dewatering vibrating screen is a screening and dewatering equipment that combines high-frequency vibration with multi-layer screens. It is specially designed for solid-liquid separation of high-humidity materials such as ore sand, tailings, and machine-made sand.

In the sand making industry, the dewatering vibrating screen effectively solves the problems of high moisture content and fine sand loss in the wet sand making process through high-frequency vibration, gravity drainage, and multi-layer screens.

Working principle: The vibration motor generates high-frequency linear vibrations of 1500-3000 times/minute, causing the material to jump forward on the multi-layer screen surface inclined at 15°-25°. The upper screen (2-5mm) completes the coarse particle classification, the middle screen (0.5-1mm) recovers fine sand, and the bottom screen (below 0.074mm) realizes mud and water separation, allowing the water to be quickly discharged through the screen holes.

In the sand and gravel aggregate production line, the dewatering vibrating screen completes efficient dewatering and screening in four steps:

Basic dewatering: wet sand after sand washing enters the screen surface, and high-frequency vibration makes the material evenly thinned;

Grading screening: coarse particles are transported forward along the screen surface, and fine sand falls through the screen;

Deep dewatering: the fine sand layer is constantly churning under the action of vibration, and the water is forced to be discharged from the screen;

Dry material collection: the dehydrated finished sand (water content ≤8%) is discharged from the discharge port, and the mud is centrally processed through the bottom water guide trough.

This process can reduce the moisture content of the finished sand from 15%-20% to below 8%, recover more than 90% of 0.075mm fine sand, and reduce 30% of drying energy consumption. It is a key equipment for modern sand production line manufacturers to improve quality and reduce costs.
