Quartz sand scrubbing machine is a device used to clean impurities (such as
clay, iron ore, soil, etc.) in quartz sand and improve its purity, widely used
in quartz sand production lines. Its main function is to remove attachments and
impurities from quartz sand through physical stirring, friction, and other
methods, thereby improving the quality of quartz sand and meeting the
requirements of subsequent processing (such as screening, grading, drying,
etc.).

main features
Removing impurities: The quartz sand scrubbing machine can effectively remove
clay, iron ore, mineral impurities, and other harmful impurities from quartz
sand, improving the purity of quartz sand. Often used to improve the quality of
quartz sand, especially in applications that require high-purity sand and gravel
(such as glass manufacturing, semiconductor industry, etc.).
Friction effect: The core working principle of the scrubbing machine is to
use the mixing effect of mechanical equipment (such as blades, wheel stirring
devices) and water to remove impurities attached to the surface of quartz sand
through friction between materials.
Simple equipment structure: The structure of quartz sand scrubbing machine is
usually relatively simple, including a rotating scrubbing cylinder, feed inlet,
discharge outlet, and water flow system. Its working principle is similar to a
drum washing machine, achieving cleaning goals through internal stirring and
water flow flushing.
Improving the purity of sand: The scrubbing machine is particularly suitable
for removing soluble impurities and easily washed away soil impurities from
quartz sand, making the quartz sand cleaner and improving its purity.
working principle
The working principle of the quartz sand scrubbing machine is based on the
friction between the material and the equipment surface. When the quartz sand
material enters the scrubbing machine, the internal rotating devices (such as
the washing drum, brush roller, etc.) will carry the animal material to rotate
and rub against the water flow. Impurities such as soil, clay, iron ore, etc.
will be dispersed and shed during this friction, and then carried away by water
flow. The cleaned quartz sand is discharged through the discharge port to
complete the scrubbing process.
major function
Removing impurities such as clay, clay, and iron ore: Quartz sand often
contains impurities such as clay, clay, and iron ore, which can affect the
quality of quartz sand. The scrubbing machine effectively removes these
impurities and improves the purity of quartz sand through the friction between
water and materials.
Improving the transparency and cleanliness of sand: Especially in industries
such as glass manufacturing and semiconductor manufacturing that require high
purity, scrubbing machines can effectively improve the transparency and
cleanliness of sand.
Environmental protection effect: Due to the water flow during the scrubbing
process, it can carry away soil and impurities, so the quartz sand scrubbing
machine can reduce dust pollution to a certain extent and has a certain
environmental protection effect.
application area
Quartz sand scrubbing machine has a wide range of applications in the
following fields:
Glass manufacturing: High purity quartz sand is crucial in glass production,
and a scrubbing machine can remove impurities from the sand to ensure the
production of high-quality glass.
Chemical industry: used for cleaning impurities in quartz sand, preparing
high-purity quartz powder, or as raw materials for certain chemical
reactions.
Electronics industry: used for manufacturing products such as semiconductors
and solar cells that require extremely high purity.
Building materials industry: When producing sand for construction or as a raw
material for concrete, it is necessary to use a scrubbing machine to remove
impurities from the sand and gravel.
advantage
Efficient impurity removal: The quartz sand scrubbing machine can effectively
remove impurities attached to quartz sand through friction between materials and
equipment surfaces.
Good environmental friendliness: Due to the use of water as a flushing
medium, dust pollution is reduced, making it more environmentally friendly than
dry sand washing equipment.
Easy to operate: The quartz sand scrubbing machine has a simple structure, is
easy to operate and maintain, runs stably, and has low maintenance costs.
Improving the quality of sand: After scrubbing, quartz sand has a high
purity, which can meet the market demand for high-purity sand and gravel,
especially for industries that require high purity of sand, such as the glass
and electronics industries.
Equipment structure
The quartz sand scrubbing machine usually includes the following main
components:
Washing cylinder or drum: usually a horizontal or slightly inclined rotating
cylinder in which materials rub and wash against water flow through
rotation.
Feed inlet: Send quartz sand raw materials into the scrubbing machine through
the conveying equipment.
Discharge port: The cleaned quartz sand is discharged from the machine,
usually transported by a screw conveyor or other means.
Water flow system: Provides continuous water flow to flush impurities in
quartz sand. Water flow systems typically include equipment such as pumps and
pipelines.
Drive system: Provides power for the washing drum or drum, commonly driven by
an electric motor.
Common problems and solutions
Incomplete removal of impurities:
Solution: Adjust the speed and water flow rate of the scrubbing machine,
increase the washing time, and ensure that impurities are fully removed.
Equipment blockage:
Solution: Regularly check the equipment, clean the debris in the washing
drum, and ensure smooth water flow.
Water resource waste:
Solution: Set up a water circulation system to recover water flow and reuse
it, reducing the use of new water.
summary
The quartz sand scrubbing machine is a crucial part of the quartz sand
production process, which can effectively remove impurities from quartz sand and
improve product purity. Through reasonable design and maintenance, the quartz
sand scrubbing machine can significantly improve production efficiency and
ensure the quality of quartz sand, meeting the requirements of different
industries for sand and gravel quality.
