Which Stone can be made into Mechanism Sand?

At present, there are many kinds of stones that can be used for sand making in mining industry. For hard materials, jaw crusher + cone crusher is one of the most efficient combinations.

At present, there are many kinds of stones that can be used for sand making in mining industry. Basically, ores with low added value and within a certain water content can be used to make sand, including tailings from beneficiation. So, what kind of stone material can be made into mechanism sand? What is the process of sand making production line?

What materials can be used to produce mechanism sand?

  • River pebbles, basalt, granite, limestone, bluestone, iron ore, etc.
  • Sandstone, quartz sandstone, etc.
  • Tailings, slag, and construction waste, etc.

Introduction of sand making process

1. The production capacity ≥ 200 t/h

Equipment: vibrating feeder, jaw crusher, cone crusher, vertical shaft sand making machine, sand washing machine, vibrating screen, and conveyor belt, etc.

For hard materials, jaw crusher + cone crusher is one of the most efficient combinations. The reason why the impact crusher is configured is that the aggregate needle content is higher after the cone crushing treatment. After impact crushing treatment, the particle size of the material is uniform and the crushing effect is good. In addition, the sand washing machine can clean and remove impurities, the finished products are clean and the market profit is better.

2. The production capacity < 200 t/h

Equipment: vibrating feeder, jaw crusher, complex crusher (roller crusher, double stage crusher), vibrating screen, and conveyor belt.

Jaw crusher as an initial crushing equipment, can break 200+ rocks and stone. The output is between 1-2200 t/h, users can choose according to the actual process.

Complex crusher, double stage crusher and roller crusher are small crushing equipment, the designed output is relatively small, generally below 100t/h. This equipment has small power, energy saving, and small space, which is more suitable for small stone factories.

With the shortage of natural sand resources, artificial sand is bound to replace natural sand. Mechanism sand material is convenient, production technology is scientific, more in line with building sand.
