What Is The Price Of Sand Drying System? Tong ding Machinery Price Guide
Are you planning to purchase a complete sand drying line, or are you unsure about the pricing? Today, Tongding Machinery will provide a detailed overview of the sand drying system’s components, costs, and key considerations for purchasing.
一.Component Of A Complete Sand Drying System
A complete sand drying system comprises six major modules: material feeding, the main drying unit, the heat source system, the dust removal and environmental protection system, the discharge/screening/storage system, and the electrical control system. The standard process flow is as follows: wet sand silo → feeder → feed conveyor → triple-pass dryer → discharge conveyor → vibrating screen → bucket elevator → dry sand silo; exhaust gas is routed through the dust removal system to ensure emissions meet standards.
二.Capacity Of The Sand Dryer
The production capacity of the entire drying line is determined by the main dryer unit, with the auxiliary conveying, dust removal, and heat source systems matched accordingly. The dryer capacity chart is provided below.
| Model | Power（KW） | Capacity(T/H) | Rotary speed （r/min） | Installation Angle | final Moisture | Heat Supply Mode |
| HG1625 | 4kw | 3-8 t/h | 9 | Aclinic | ≤0.5％ | 1) Firewood 2) Pulverized coal 3) Diesel 4) Natural gas 5) not carbonizedbiomass fuel 6) carbonizedbiomass fuel |
| HG2240 | 7.5kw | 10-15 t/h | 9 | |||
| HG2250 | 7.5kw | 20t/h | 9 | |||
| HG2958 | 5.5kw*4 | 30t/h | 7 | |||
| HG3270 | 11kw*4 | 60t/h | 7 | |||
| HG3890 | 15kw*4 | 100t/h | 7 |
Key Factors Affecting Actual Production Capacity
1. Initial moisture content: If wet sand moisture exceeds 12%, capacity drops; higher moisture results in lower output.
2. Heat source type: Natural gas and diesel offer stable temperature control; fluctuations in biomass calorific value slightly affect capacity.
3. Sand type: River sand and manufactured sand are easy to dry; sea sand, high-clay sand, and quartz sand have slower heat transfer, reducing capacity.
4. Target moisture content of finished product: A requirement of ≤0.5% reduces capacity, whereas a requirement of ≤1% allows for higher output.
三.Price Range For Sand Drying Systems
Price for a complete sand and gravel drying system (triple-pass dryer）; FOB Chinese port; standard carbon steel configuration).
1. 3–5 t/h (Small-scale) ：$10,000 – $18,000
2. 8–15 t/h (Standard for dry-mix plants)： $22,000 – $38,000
3. 20–25 t/h (Medium-scale) ：$40,000 – $55,000
4. 30–35 t/h (Medium-to-large scale) ：$58,000 – $75,000
5. 40–50 t/h (Large-scale) ：$80,000 – $110,000
6. 60–100 t/h (Extra-large scale: fracturing sand/aggregate projects) ：：$120,000+
四.How to Choose a Sand Drying System That Suits Your Needs?
1.First determine material parameters: aggregate type, particle size, clay content, and initial versus target moisture levels. For standard, clean aggregates, a three-pass dryer is preferable due to its high thermal efficiency and compact footprint; for materials with high clay or sticky content, a long single-drum dryer is the better choice.
2.Select the model based on hourly production capacity, allowing for a 10%–20% margin. Heat sources—such as natural gas, biomass, or coal—should be chosen based on local environmental regulations and fuel costs. The complete system must include feeding, dust removal, induced draft, and electrical control components.
3.Evaluate the equipment’s wear resistance and sealing specifications, prioritize suppliers with a proven track record in aggregate projects, and conduct a comprehensive assessment of the total lifecycle costs, including procurement, fuel, and maintenance.、
