Log Washer Sand Washing Equipment

Log Washer

1.Product Introduction

The Log Washer is a critical piece of equipment in mineral processing, primarily designed to remove clay, mud, and other impurities adhering to the surface of ore or intermixed within ore lumps. Its core function is to enhance ore grade through physical scrubbing, producing qualified products suitable for subsequent separation or direct sale.

2.Application

Its applications are extensive, primarily covering the following fields:

• Bauxite Desilification: A core piece of equipment for bauxite water washing and desliming, enhancing the aluminum-to-silicon ratio.

• Manganese Ore Washing: Used to remove clay impurities from manganese ore, improving ore grade.

• Other Coarse-Grained Ore Processing: Widely applied in cleaning operations for moderately washable or difficult-to-wash ores such as construction aggregates, iron ore, and gravel.It demonstrates remarkable effectiveness in breaking up and disaggregating stubborn clay lumps, preventing clay blockages in subsequent crushing and screening equipment to ensure continuous production.

3.Working Principle

The Log Washer cleans ore through an inclined U-shaped trough and internally rotating propeller blades (or agitator blades). The ore-water mixture enters the trough via the feed inlet, where the rotating blades vigorously cut, knead, and agitate the material. This process thoroughly breaks down impurities such as soil and clay lumps adhering to the ore surface. The cleaned ore is propelled by the blades to the discharge outlet, while slurry and fine impurities are carried away with the water flow through the overflow outlet at the trough's end, thereby separating the ore from contaminants.
