What are the differences between sand making machine and compound crusher?

Sand making machine are suitable for various hard and brittle materials, such as river pebbles, granite, and limestone, etc.

Compound crusher is suitable for processing materials with medium to high hardness and a compressive strength of ≤160MPa, such as limestone, and quartz stone. Compound crusher features a crushing and grinding mechanism that achieve more crushing and less grinding, making it an excellent choice for fine crushing.

The compound crusher has significant pressure, bending force, and friction through wear-resistant tooth plates and plate hammers. Inside the crushing chamber, materials are efficiently crushed and finely shaped, resulting in uniformly rounded particles with minimal needle-like or flaky fragments. The well-processed material is then smoothly discharged from the machine.

The sand making machine utilizes two working modes: “stone-beat-stone” and “stone-beat-iron”. The “stone-beat-stone” is ideal for medium-hard and highly corrosive materials, such as basalt, and is commonly used for shaping materials to achieve a better particle shape. On the other hand, the “stone-beat-iron” is best suited for less abrasive, medium-hard or softer materials like limestone, offering high productivity and efficiency.

The compound crusher features a uniform particle size in the final product, with minimal overgrinding and a low proportion of needle-like and flake-shaped particles, ensuring it meets construction industry standards.

sand making machines are particularly well-suited for producing high-quality sand. They offer excellent shaping capabilities, resulting in uniformly shaped particles with no cracks or fine lines, and allow for adjustable fineness modulus to meet various needs.

The production capacity of compound crusher is 8-120 t/h. This crusher is medium size crushing equipment, with higher crushing efficiency.

The production capacity of sand making machine is up to 715 t/h, and the sand making efficiency is higher, making it suitable for medium and large size stone production plant.
