A mobile washing and screening plant is a transportable facility used for washing, screening, and classifying natural materials such as gravel, sand, crushed stone, and aggregates. Unlike fixed plants, mobile units are designed to be easily relocated to different job sites, offering flexibility for projects that demand on-site processing.

What Does It Do?

The primary function of the mobile washing and screening plant is to:

  • Wash raw materials to remove dust, clay, and impurities,

  • Screen and separate materials by size using vibrating screens,

  • Produce clean, classified aggregates suitable for concrete, asphalt, and other construction materials.

How Does It Work?

The plant consists of the following main components:

  • Feeding hopper: Receives raw material.

  • Conveyor belts: Transport materials within the plant.

  • Washing drum or screw washer: Cleans materials with high-pressure water.

  • Vibrating screens: Separate materials based on size.

  • Stockpile conveyors: Transport final products to storage areas.

  • Water management system: Recycles water used in washing.

Operational process:

  1. Material enters through the feeding hopper.

  2. It is washed in the washing drum or screw washer.

  3. Cleaned material is separated by size on vibrating screens.

  4. Final products are conveyed to different stockpiles.

 Where Is It Used?

  • Construction industry: For producing clean aggregates for concrete and asphalt.

  • Mining industry: Washing and screening ores and minerals.

  • Sand and gravel pits: On-site processing of raw materials.

  • Infrastructure projects: Roads, dams, tunnels, airports.

  • Recycling: Processing demolition waste.

 Advantages

  • High mobility and fast relocation.

  • Quick setup and commissioning.

  • Low operating costs.

  • Versatility in usage.

  • Faster return on investment compared to fixed plants.
