The Challenge of Cleaning Granite and Marble Aggregates

Granite and marble processing facilities worldwide face significant challenges in achieving optimal cleaning results. These premium stone aggregates often contain stubborn contaminants including clay, silt, and mineral deposits that traditional washing equipment struggles to remove efficiently. Industry data shows that conventional washing methods typically achieve only 65-70% impurity removal for granite and marble, leading to product quality issues and reduced market value.

Production managers report two primary pain points: excessive water consumption (often exceeding 15 cubic meters per ton of material) and high maintenance costs due to frequent breakdowns. A recent survey of aggregate producers found that equipment downtime related to washing operations accounts for an average of 12% of total production losses annually.

XSD Sand Washer: Engineered for Premium Stone Cleaning

Developed through the integration of advanced international technologies with specific adaptations for domestic aggregate industry needs, the XSD Sand Washer represents a significant leap forward in aggregate cleaning technology. This specialized equipment addresses the unique challenges of granite and marble processing through its innovative design and operational principles.

Key Performance Advantages

  • Impurity removal rate: 95-98% for granite and marble aggregates
  • Water consumption reduction: 30-40% compared to traditional washers
  • Processing capacity: 20-200 tons per hour (model dependent)
  • maintenance interval: Extended to 2,000 operating hours

Revolutionary Impeller Friction Cleaning Technology

The XSD Sand Washer's core innovation lies in its proprietary impeller friction cleaning system. Unlike conventional washers that rely primarily on water flow, this technology creates three-dimensional cleaning action through:

High-Velocity Material Collision

Specially designed impeller blades create controlled turbulence that causes aggregate particles to rub against each other, dislodging even the most stubborn contaminants from the surface of granite and marble stones.

Optimized Water Flow Dynamics

The unique curved design of the washing tank creates a vortex effect that separates and removes lighter impurities while retaining the valuable aggregate, ensuring maximum cleaning with minimum water usage.

This dual-action cleaning process results in a 25-30% improvement in cleaning efficiency compared to traditional spiral washers, particularly evident in the processing of high-value granite and marble aggregates where surface quality is paramount.

Sealed Oil-Bath Transmission: The Key to Reliability

One of the most common failure points in sand washing equipment is water and sand intrusion into the transmission system. The XSD Sand Washer addresses this critical issue with its fully enclosed oil-bath transmission structure:

  • Complete isolation of the transmission components from water and abrasive materials
  • Continuous lubrication through a sealed oil circulation system
  • Temperature regulation to prevent overheating during extended operation
  • Extended service life of critical components by up to 300%

This engineering advancement directly translates to significantly reduced maintenance costs and minimized downtime – two critical factors in aggregate processing profitability.

Real-World Performance: Case Studies

Granite Quarry in Guangdong Province

Before installation: 70% cleaning efficiency, 16 m³ water/ton, 15% downtime

After XSD implementation: 97% cleaning efficiency, 9 m³ water/ton, 3% downtime

Result: 30% increase in product value, 40% reduction in water costs, 12% increase in overall production capacity

Similar results have been documented in marble processing facilities across China, with operators reporting not only improved product quality but also significant operational savings. The XSD Sand Washer's ability to consistently produce cleaner aggregates has enabled many producers to enter premium construction markets that were previously inaccessible.
