The Terex® FM Bucket Wheel series of sand classification systems are highly effective dewatering units. These systems efficiently remove silts, slimes, and clays from sand to produce up to two saleable products. They are suitable for various applications, including concrete, mortar, and asphalt sands, quarry dust and crushed fines, lake and beach sands, silica sand, golf course sands, filter bed sands, recycled materials, and iron ore.

The range integrates a dewatering bucket wheel(s), a centrifugal slurry pump, hydrocyclone(s), a collection tank, and a dewatering screen—all mounted on a single chassis.

Key Features

• Can recover 1 or 2 grades of sand from wet feed or bolt-on boiler box option for direct dry feed
• Maximum recovery of saleable material through the removal of silt, slimes and clays below 75μm (200 mesh)
• Variable speed bucket wheel processes 80-90% of material, reducing wear on the rubber lined pumps & cyclones
• Major reduction in fine material discharging to the water management system, thus reducing recovery cycle and cost
