Top Quality Silica Sand Dryer for Mining Material Drying – Complete Production Solution

Dry More Sand. Use Less Fuel. Run 24/7.

Wet sand costs you money – in transport weight, in processing delays, and in rejected batches. This Sand Dryer is engineered for silica sand, river sand, quartz sand, and other mining materials, reducing moisture to below 0.5% with a discharge temperature under 65°C.

Capacity: 5 – 100 tons/hour | Fuel options: Gas, diesel, heavy oil, coal, biomass

Why This Sand Drying Machine?

Traditional dryers waste fuel and lose heat. This Sand Drying Machine uses a three-pass rotary drum design that recycles hot air internally, cutting fuel consumption by up to 25% compared to single-pass dryers. The result: lower operating cost per ton of dried sand.

The drum is lined with wear-resistant steel plates, extending service life even when processing abrasive silica sand. A variable frequency drive controls drum rotation speed, allowing you to fine-tune drying time for different moisture levels and particle sizes.

Complete Production Solution – Not Just a Dryer

A dryer alone does not solve your production problem. This complete solution includes:

• Feeding system – Belt or screw conveyor to feed wet sand evenly

• Rotary drum dryer – Three-pass design with internal lifting flights

• Combustion chamber – Efficient burner for gas, diesel, heavy oil, coal, or biomass

• Cyclone separator – Captures fine dust and returns it to the product stream

• Bag filter dust collector – Meets environmental emission standards

• Discharge conveyor – Transfers dried sand to storage or next process

• PLC control panel – Monitors temperature, rotation speed, and moisture

Every component is matched and pre-tested before shipment. You receive a system, not a collection of parts.

What You Can Dry
