Horizontal sand making+vibrating screening+spiral chute reselection+electromagnetic dry selection+obstructed settling: combination of multi-stage quartz sand sorting equipment

2026-05-23

In the purification process of quartz sand, differentiated sorting methods are required for different particle sizes and impurity types. Shanlu Heavy Industry provides various equipment such as reselection, dry electromagnetic selection, and wet classification, which are suitable for scenarios where there is a significant difference in the specific gravity of sand or where dry operation is required.

Taking a process line that balances coarse particle reselection and fine particle electromagnetic reselection as an example: the raw sand is first crushed and then enters the ZSW high-purity horizontal sand making machine for fine crushing and shaping. The equipment adopts a horizontal structure, and the material is subjected to hammer impact and liner grinding in the crushing chamber, resulting in uniform particle size and less over crushing. The crushed material is sent to the MZK mining vibrating screen. The screening machine designed by Shanlu Heavy Industry adopts a circular vibration trajectory, and the number of screening layers can be configured as 2-4 according to demand, with stable screening efficiency. By replacing different aperture sieves, multiple particle size ranges such as 0.5-2mm and 2-4mm can be obtained.

For coarse-grained sand larger than 2mm, if it contains impurity minerals with high specific gravity (such as garnet, ilmenite, etc.), the re-election method can be used to remove them. Shanlu Heavy Industry is equipped with LXS spiral chutes at this stage. The device consists of a spiral groove surface. When the slurry flows on the groove surface, heavy mineral particles tend towards the inner edge of the groove bottom, while light mineral particles move towards the outer edge, thus achieving separation. Spiral chutes require no power, have a large processing capacity, and have a significant effect on sorting coarse particles. After sorting through a spiral chute, the removal rate of impurities with high specific gravity in coarse quartz sand reaches over 70%.

For fine sand below 0.5mm, Shanlu Heavy Industry uses DCG high field electromagnetic dry magnetic separator for iron removal. The equipment adopts electromagnetic excitation, and the magnetic field strength can be adjusted by current, up to 18000Gs. The magnetic separator is equipped with a vibration feeding device and magnetic rollers inside. The material is evenly distributed on the surface of the magnetic rollers, and weak magnetic particles are adsorbed and rotated with the rollers to the non-magnetic area for unloading. Non magnetic sand falls into another collection hopper. After DCG magnetic separation, the content of Fe ₂ O3 in fine-grained sand can be controlled below 100ppm.

If fine powder (-200 mesh) is generated in the production line, Shanlu Heavy Industry can supplement electromagnetic dry powder magnetic separators for deep purification. This machine is specifically designed for dry fine powder, using a multi-layer magnetic roller or magnetic plate structure with high magnetic field gradient, suitable for removing iron from powder in the range of 10-100 microns. The processed micro powder can be used for high value-added products.

In the wet process section, Shanlu Heavy Industry introduced SZ blocked settling machine for grading. This device utilizes upwelling water flow to stratify particles according to particle size or density during the settling process, and can be used to remove fine mud or extract coarse particles. The obstructed settling machine is equipped with a moisture distribution board and a discharge device inside. By adjusting the rising water flow rate and water pressure, a clear grading interface can be obtained. This device can be used in series with a spiral chute to further improve sorting accuracy.

Shanlu Heavy Industry is located in Shandong and has over 20 years of experience in mining machinery design. Its products cover a full range of categories including crushing, screening, reselection, magnetic separation, grading, and dewatering. Shanlu Heavy Industry can provide equipment selection and process connection solutions based on the customer's original sand mineral composition and particle size distribution.

In terms of equipment details: The ZSW sand making machine hammer head is made of high chromium cast iron and can be replaced after wear and tear; The MZK vibrating screen adopts a spring tensioning method, which shortens the screen replacement time; LXS spiral chute groove surface sprayed with wear-resistant polyurethane, with a long service life; The excitation coil of DCG electromagnetic magnetic separator adopts water electricity separation cooling, with low temperature rise; The discharge valve of the SZ blocked settling machine is pneumatic and has a sensitive response. These designs reduce the daily maintenance intensity for customers.
