FAQ

Q: What are the application scope and characteristics of waterwheel sand washer?

A: When the waterwheel sand washer is working, the motor drives the wheel to rotate slowly through the V-belt, reducer and gear. The sand enters the washing tank from the feeding trough, tumbles under the drive of the wheel, and grinds each other to remove impurities covering the surface of the sand, and at the same time destroys the water vapor layer coating the sand to facilitate dehydration; Add water at the same time to form a strong water flow, which can promptly take away impurities and foreign objects with small specific gravity and discharge them from the overflow outlet. The clean sand is taken away by the wheel, and finally the sand is poured from the rotating wheel into the discharge trough, thus completing the sand cleaning.

The waterwheel sand washer has a simple structure, and the drive bearing is isolated from water and materials, which greatly avoids damage to the bearing due to water immersion, sand and pollutants. It has obvious advantages over traditional spiral sand washers when used for sand washing in aggregate yards.
