Trommel Scrubber VS Log Washer: Which is Better For Your Beneficiation Line?

4. Product purity

The trommel scrubber has its grading screen, which can be used for preliminary grading while cleaning. The mud content of the discharge is ≤5%, which can meet the production of sand and gravel for construction with low purity requirements.

The log washer has strong stirring to dissociate the minerals well, but the discharge contains a lot of water and impurities, and needs to be matched with a dewatering screen. In the production of metal ore purification and other productions with high purity requirements, the mud content of the product can be reduced even lower after treatment.

5. Difficulty of equipment maintenance

The trommel scrubber has a simple structure and consists of a drum, a supporting wheel, a drive device, etc. It is easy to install and disassemble, and daily inspection of rotation, wear and operation status is sufficient. The working environment is mild, the parts wear slowly, the maintenance cost is low, and the wearing parts are easy to replace.

The log washer has a complex structure, and the double-axis blades, trough body, etc. are easy to wear. It is necessary to regularly check the blade wear and replace it, and check and maintain the inner wall of the trough body. The transmission system, bearings, etc. must also be regularly lubricated and maintained, which is cumbersome and costly, and requires professional operation.
