McLanahan UltraSAND
Plant Provides Flexibility to
South Vietnamese Man-
Sand Plant
A customer in South Vietnam was looking to make a high-quality basalt crushed sand as a replacement for river sand. Manufacturing sand creates a large amount of fines from the crushing process, and the customer needed to remove these undersized particles to meet their required product specifications, which in this case was a fineness modulus of 2.2. Fines are typically removed with washing and classification equipment, so the customer needed a wash plant that would get the job done.
Solution
The customer reached out to Thanh Long JSC, McLanahan’s dealer in Vietnam, for a solution. Thanh Long JSC recommended a McLanahan UltraSAND Plant for producing their required product specification.
McLanahan UltraSAND Plants are modular sand washing and dewatering systems that are pre-designed and pre-engineered for rapid deployment. The fully designed UltraSAND Plant, with its quick setup time and small footprint, was more attractive to the customer than a stationary plant.
“As deposits are fully utilized, the fact that modular plants can be moved accordingly is very important,” said McLanahan Regional Sales Manager Neil Treseder. “They can be added to various modular options to suit ever-changing deposits. They don’t need a lot of infrastructure. In the Vietnamese market, the plants need to be versatile, quick to deploy and cost effective; the McLanahan modular Ultra line fits this bill.”
Treseder continued, “McLanahan modular plants are fully designed with a small footprint. Some customers have multiple sites, and if required, the plant can be moved to suit. The plants are shipped by containers, which makes them very cost effective.”
