Trio® TLW series log washers are ideal for scrubbing difficult materials such as tough insoluble clays, conglomerates, soft stone and cemented aggregate.
Overview
Our range of Trio® log washers are especially designed for the washing and separation of aggregates. They assist with breaking down heavy plastic clay, conglomerates, and certain types of soft stone that may be present in ore, crushed rock or gravel.
They can also remove coatings from individual particles, break up agglomerations and reduce some soft, unsound fractions by a mild form of differential grinding.
Scrubbing is accomplished by the severe abrading action of corrugated-faced cast-iron blades (paddles) mounted on the spuds welded to the log shafts. The log shafts rotate in opposite directions and are timed to obtain an overlap of the paddle shoes for maximum scrubbing action.
Log washer feed material should be pre-screened to ensure that the top size does not exceed a nominal of 100mm (4”) and to eliminate all material smaller than 10mm (3/8”).
