Modular Log Washing Plant

1.Product Introduction

The Modular Log Washer is an integrated, mobile mineral processing unit. Its core unit utilizes rotary log scrubber technology combined with a modular chassis designed for rapid assembly and disassembly. Specifically engineered to handle coarse-grained ores with high clay and impurity content, this system is a primary washing solution for heavy minerals such as gold, diamonds, and chromite. It is an ideal choice for small-to-medium-sized mining operations.

2.Application

• Gold Mining: Acts as a primary pre-washing stage for clay-heavy placer gold and alluvial deposits.

• Diamond Processing: Used for the initial cleaning of coarse diamond ore to remove encrusted clay.

• Heavy Minerals (Chromite, Tin, etc.): Ideal for the primary purification of raw ores with high mud content.

• Aggregate Processing: Cleans natural sand and stone with high clay content to enhance the quality of construction-grade sand.

• Remote or Temporary Mining Sites: The modular design facilitates easy transport and rapid deployment, making it perfect for seasonal or exploratory projects.

3.Working Principle

• Feeding: Raw ore is uniformly fed into the washing trough via a vibrating feeder.

• Mechanical Scrubbing: Rotating log-style paddles (or "logs") within the trough continuously lift and tumble the material. This generates intense physical friction and attrition, effectively stripping away clay, mud balls, and impurities.

• Hydraulic Assistance: A high-pressure water spray system works in tandem with the mechanical action to rinse the material, flushing out the stripped fines and dust.

• Classification & Discharge: Cleaned coarse minerals are discharged from the outlet, while the tailings slurry is processed through a settling or recycling system.

4.Advantages

• Superior Scrubbing Intensity: Exceptional at disintegrating viscous, clumped materials (such as "clay balls"), with a performance that far exceeds standard trommel or spiral washers.
• Robust and Durable: The design features no complex screens, making it resistant to clogging and low in maintenance—perfect for harsh working conditions.
• Modular "Plug-and-Play" Design: Can be quickly installed, dismantled, and transported, meeting the needs of operations that require frequent relocation.
• Lower Water Consumption: Compared to spiral washers, it typically consumes less water per unit of processed material.
• High Compatibility: Often serves as the frontline equipment in multi-stage systems, seamlessly integrating with downstream vibrating screens, shaking tables, and centrifuges to boost overall recovery rates.
