What is the difference between the sand making machine and other crushers? This is a question that everyone often discusses. Can the sand making machine be used as a crusher? For this reason, everyone often confuses that sand making machines and crushers are both crushing equipment, and both can crush mineral stones such as pebbles and limestone, but in fact they have certain differences.
- Different types
Sand making machine, also known as impact crusher, in fact, sand making machine is also one of the types of crushers.
There are many types of crushers: jaw crushers, cone crushers, heavy hammer crushers, impact crushers and mobile crushers. - Different functions
The sand making machine flexibly uses the principle of “stone beat stone” crusher for production and processing. It is commonly used for many hard and brittle raw materials such as rocks, abrasives, refractory materials, cement clinker, quartz stone, iron ore, concrete aggregates, etc. Medium crushing and fine crushing of materials (sand making). It is suitable for construction sand and road construction sand and gravel.
The crusher is mainly used for crushing medium-level hardness and brittle raw materials, such as granite, river pebbles, pebbles, limestone, etc. - The order of delivery of the production line is different
The configuration of one production line is generally jaw crusher + cone crusher / impact crusher + sand making machine. The crusher is used for the first stage of crushing, and the sand making machine is used for the second link. If the size of the raw material is relatively small, it can also be used for the second stage of crushing immediately. - The feed size is different
The feed size of the crusher is relatively large, and the diameter is generally about 1 to 2 meters, which can immediately crush the large stones mined from the mountain. The feed particle size of the sand making machine is relatively small, generally controlled at about 30-50cm, and the feed size is also clearly specified, and cannot exceed the limit set by the equipment, otherwise the equipment will be easily damaged. - The discharging granularity is different
The particle size of the sand crushed by the cone crusher or impact crusher is usually controlled below 50mm, which is convenient for the sand making machine to carry out the next stage of sand production and processing. The sand size after the sand making machine will be controlled at 5mm. Among them, according to the screening, the sand that meets the construction sand standard is selected.
