2 Sets High-Precision Duplex Model Gyratory Sifters for Abrasive Quartz Sand Processing in Iraq

Gyratory sifters for quartz sand in Iraq - view 4

    Project Location: Iraq

    Material: High-Hardness Quartz Sand (Silica)

    Equipment: 2 Sets of 2FYBS2036-5P (Duplex Configuration)

    Application: Grading system for premium tile adhesive production.

    Key Mesh Sizes: 850μm, 600μm, 500μm, 400μm, 300μm (System precision capable down to 100μm).

The Challenge: Handling Iraq’s Abrasive Minerals

The client required a high-capacity screening solution capable of withstanding the extreme abrasiveness of Iraqi silica sand. The primary goal was to achieve consistent grading for tile adhesive, where even a small percentage of oversize particles can affect the final product’s quality.

The Solution: 2FYBS2036-5P Gyratory Sifter

Our Gyratory Sifters were chosen for their unique ability to handle hard and abrasive materials with minimal mesh wear.

    Fine Grading Excellence: While the current requirement is 300μm, the equipment’s design ensures high-efficiency separation down to 100μm, offering the client future scalability.

    Low-Impact Longevity: The horizontal reciprocating motion prevents the sand from “bouncing” violently against the screen, which significantly extends the life of both the mesh and the machine structure compared to traditional vibrating screens.

Quality Assurance & Installation

1. Factory Excellence: 48-Hour Continuous Testing

Before shipping to Iraq, both units underwent a rigorous 48-hour continuous no-load test at our factory. This ensures that all mechanical components—from the eccentric drive to the multi-deck tensioning system—are perfectly calibrated. Our commitment to precise assembly guarantees that each unit delivers stable, reliable performance from the moment it arrives onsite.

2. Onsite Integration in Iraq

The two units were installed in a parallel configuration, making full use of the equipment’s compact and space-efficient design. By placing the machines side by side, the client was able to significantly reduce the footprint of the screening system while maintaining high processing capacity.

Thanks to the modular structure and optimized inlet/outlet layout, the sifters were easily integrated with upstream feeding equipment and downstream conveying systems. This ensured a smooth material flow throughout the production line and minimized installation complexity.

Technical Results

    Output Consistency: 95% accuracy in grain size distribution across all 5 decks.

    Operational Durability: Significant reduction in mesh replacement frequency for abrasive quartz.

High Purity: Clean separation at the 300μm and 400μm levels, meeting the highest standards for tile adhesive.

If you are working with abrasive materials such as quartz sand, silica, or other aggregates and require precise, reliable screening solutions, our gyratory sifters are engineered to meet demanding industrial standards.
