When Rotary scrubber processing mineral clay, the rotary scrubber (drum washer) mainly achieves effective cleaning and grading through its unique rotation and water flow flushing mechanism.
The following is a detailed explanation of the process of washing mineral clay by the rotary scrubber (drum washer):
1. Working principle of rotary scrubber (drum washer),The rotary scrubber (drum washer) uses a rotating drum and an internal scraper, as well as the pebbles and rocks in the ore, to decompose clay, lumps and soft oxides. Its working principle is similar to that of a large washing machine. The drum rotates slowly under the drive of the motor, driving the internal ore and water to roll and stir together. In this process, water is sprayed in through the water spray device on the inner wall of the drum, forming a strong water flow flushing force, which helps to strip the dirt and impurities on the surface of the ore.
2. Washing process Ore enters the drum: The mineral clay to be treated enters the inside of the drum evenly through the feeding device.
Drum rotation and water flow flushing: The drum starts to rotate, and the ore is subjected to the centrifugal force and friction in the drum, constantly rolling and colliding. At the same time, the water flow flushes the surface of the ore, stripping off the dirt and impurities on it. Grading and washing: Under the combined action of the rotation of the drum and the flushing of water flow, the ore is graded according to the particle size and density. At the same time, the ore is effectively separated from the impurities, and the useful minerals are released from the muddy soil and clay. Discharged products: The ore after grading and washing is discharged from the other end of the drum, completing the entire ore washing process. The slurry material after separation is discharged from the rear section of the drum, and the cleaned ore is unloaded into the double-layer conical screen for screening, and finally transported to the subsequent processing equipment by the belt conveyor.
3. Advantages of rotary scrubber (drum washer) Efficient washing: The drum ore washing machine can efficiently strip the soil and impurities on the surface of the ore through the dual effects of rotation and water flow flushing, thereby improving the cleanliness of the ore. Good grading effect: During the ore washing process, the drum ore washing machine can effectively grade the ore according to the particle size and density, providing convenience for subsequent processing. Strong adaptability: The drum ore washing machine can handle ores of various types and particle sizes, including ores with high mud content and high water content, and has a wide range of applicability.
Precautions Control the washing time: The length of the washing time will affect the washing effect. Too short a washing time may result in incomplete ore cleaning, while too long a washing time may increase energy consumption and costs. Adjust the water flow intensity: The intensity of the water flow directly affects the washing effect. Too large a water flow intensity may cause excessive wear or loss of the ore, while too small a water flow intensity may not be able to effectively strip the dirt and impurities on the surface of the ore. Regularly maintain the equipment: The drum ore washer needs to be regularly maintained and serviced during use to ensure its normal operation and extend its service life. In summary, the drum ore washer has the advantages of high efficiency, good grading effect, and strong adaptability when processing mineral clay. When using it, it is necessary to pay attention to controlling the washing time, adjusting the water flow intensity, and regularly maintaining the equipment to ensure the washing effect and normal operation of the equipment.·
