Augers and Conveyors
Screws for washing and conveying salt, and belt conveyors that move salt between the stages of a production line.
Salt production lines
Industrial Salt Production Lines
Preparing salt for industrial uses to the required specification and grain size.
Overview
Salt is used across many industries, and each use has its own requirements for purity, grain size and moisture. Industrial salt lines therefore vary from project to project even more than table salt lines.
A line may only need grinding, screening and conveying, or it may include washing and drying if the specification requires it. We define the necessary stages with the customer based on the end use and the raw salt available.
Equipment related to this line
Mills
Mills that crush and grind salt to the required grain size.
Screening Units
Units that grade dry salt by grain size into the required commercial sizes.
Dryers
Dryers that remove the residual moisture from salt after washing and centrifuging, producing dry, free-flowing salt ready for screening and…
Tanks and Hydrocyclones
Equipment for holding, mixing and thickening salt slurry and brine in the washing stage.
General planning considerations
- The specification required by the end user (purity, grain size, moisture).
- Storage and loading: bulk or large bags.
- The nature of the raw salt and whether it needs washing.
Information that helps us review your request
- The final product you want to make and the raw salt or raw material available.
- The project location and its current stage: an idea, a study, or an operating plant.
- Any existing equipment, with photos or drawings of the line if possible.
- The required capacity, if it is known.
- The utilities available on site (power, water, space), if known.

Frequently asked questions
Does industrial salt always need washing and drying?
No. It depends on the quality of the raw salt and the specification of the end use. Some applications only need grinding and screening.
Can one line produce more than one grain size?
Usually several sizes can be separated with suitable screening units; this is defined when the line is designed.
