sand making machines
With the large-scale mining of pebble natural sand, the sharp drop in the production of sand-making machines is more recognized by people. Sand-making machines are used more and more widely and have achieved good results in various industries. This is also recognized by the sand-making machine industry.

With its super crushing capacity, sand-making equipment can provide high-quality sand and gravel for the modern construction industry and other industrial sectors. Against the backdrop of ensuring the balance between supply and demand in modern industry, natural sand has the disadvantages of early production and high mining costs, thus gradually being forgotten by the industry. However, sand-making equipment solves this problem. At the same time, the mineral processing equipment industry must develop better and faster, which is also a major transformation of a symbolic leap for the industry.

Advantages of Sand Manufacturing Machine

The sand manufacturing machine has a variety of advantages that traditional equipment cannot match. These advantages can be summarized as follows:

Simple Structure and Low Cost: Simple structure means easy installation, easy operation, and maintenance, low cost means low price, and the least investment is used to obtain the greatest benefit.

Large-Scale Material Processing, High Output: The output of sand making machine is as high as 12-360t/h. Compared with traditional equipment, the output is significantly improved.

Low Wear: Due to the "rock-on-rock" principle, during the whole process of crushing, collision, friction, and completion of the crushing work, there is no direct contact with equipment parts, which reduces the friction of wearing parts and prolongs the service life of the equipment.

Uniform Granules: The finished product is in the form of a cube with a packing density, so more products can be piled up in the same area, which has a plasticizing effect. The sand-making machine can also be adjusted according to customer needs.

Energy Saving: The sand-making machine and other crushing equipment have an air circulation system and a sealed dust system, so that the dust has nowhere to escape, creating a clean production environment for you.

Scope of Application

Artificial Sand-Making Field: River pebbles, rocks (limestone, granite, basalt, diabase, andesite, etc.), tailings, and stone chips can be used to complete sand making.

Construction Field: Production of construction aggregates, road paving materials, cushion materials production, asphalt concrete, and cement concrete aggregate production.

Project Fields: Large and small water conservancy and hydropower project construction, highway construction, high-speed railway construction, bridge construction industry, high-rise building sand making, and stone shaping.

Mine Crushing Field: Sand can be used for grinding before finishing, material crushing in building materials, metallurgy, chemical industry, mining, refractory materials, cement, abrasives, and other industries.

Special Materials: High-purity materials such as glass and quartz sand can also be seen in the production of sand-making equipment.

How to Choose a Sand Manufacturing Machine?

Generally speaking, the equipment selection principle of the river pebble sand-making production line is to determine the type of sand and gravel equipment according to the characteristics of river pebbles, and the raw material for sand making. From the test or other engineering experience, we can calculate the index value calculated by the crushed stone production process. The amount of sand production determines the processing capacity of the workshop, the quality requirements of equipment combination and configuration, and the production capacity of sand and gravel production equipment models and quantities. Mainly from the following aspects to choose:

Productivity

The production capacity of the sand-making equipment should match the system.

Applicability

The service life of the equipment should comply with the requirements of the place of use, so as to reduce the downtime of the equipment. Whether the performance, structure, size, quality, and strength of the equipment selected for the production line are suitable for the workplace and environment. The main reason is that the life of equipment parts should be coordinated with the production characteristics of the system.

Energy Saving

The energy requirement, that is, the efficiency of the equipment should be high, and the equipment cost of the process should be low.

Some people have a certain mentality when choosing a crushed stone aggregate production line in the crushing process of a crusher: that is, they do not make more plan comparisons based on specific conditions, material characteristics, product particle size, and market demand. They mistakenly believe that: In the crushing process, as long as a crusher is selected for the final shape, the products of various grain shapes will be good. As the situation varies, it should be analyzed case by case, and decisions should be made based on actual market supply and demand.

If the local market lacks construction aggregates, but natural sand resources are abundant, the production of construction aggregates will be the main focus. After the jaw crusher, a new type of hydraulic cone crusher is used. If the local market lacks machine-made sand and abundant natural aggregate resources, it will mainly produce sand. When the metal erosion index of the crushed material is low, the impact crusher is used after the jaw crusher. It is especially worth mentioning that in this case, if the metal wear index of the material is high, the impact crusher should not be used.

Key Points for Choosing Sand-Making Equipment:

Environmental Protection of Sand-Making Machine

Environmental protection is the primary consideration of sand-making equipment. At present, China has formulated a set of environmental protection guidelines. Therefore, when choosing a sand-making machine, it should be considered whether it meets the requirements of going green and environmental protection. Based on this, the sand-making machine should be highly efficient and energy-saving as well. The dust (emission standard ≤ 20mg/Nm³) and noise pollution (≤ 80dB) of the sand-making machine should also be strictly controlled.

Sand-Making Machine Brand Quality Problems

The quality of the sand-making machine mainly depends on the manufacturing process of the equipment. If the quality of the equipment is not good, it will cause serious mechanical failure and cannot be used normally, thus affecting the output.

Word of Mouth of Sand Making Machine

The reputation of the sand-making machine manufacturer can also reflect the quality of the sand-making machine. A good reputation and reputation can guarantee the quality of the equipment, and the manufacturing technology is more specialized. Therefore, when purchasing a sand-making machine, know the sand-making machine manufacturer's information and manufacturing capacity first. You can also visit the manufacturing workshop on site, and have a detailed understanding of the working conditions and working principles of the sand-making machine.

After-Sales Maintenance of Sand-Making Machine

When choosing a high-quality sand-making machine, after-sales service is also very important. When the equipment fails or the wearing parts are worn out, customers can receive timely and satisfactory after-sales service.

Customers Need to Pay Attention to the Following Points When Choosing a Sand Making Machine

1. Know what scope the sand-making machine is suitable for, understand the performance and working principle of the sand-making equipment, etc.

2. Understand the market conditions. At present, there are many types of sand-making machines on the market with different quality and price.

3. Understand the composition, material, hardness, water content, and other relevant information of the materials to be crushed, and then choose a suitable sand-making machine according to the characteristics of the materials to be crushed.

4. Understand the production capacity of the equipment manufacturer, the price and quality of the sand-making machine, and after-sales service.

How Does D&G MACHINERY Help Customers Choose Sand Manufacturing Machine Models?

We evaluated the grain size of the finished product, the required output, and the sand-making site environment of the production line of the customer Yutongtong Bridge Engineering Co., Ltd. in Zhanjiang City, Guangdong Province, and recommended our MS300 sand-making machine to them. The rated output is 260-320 tons/hour of sand and gravel. At present, the equipment has been put into production and trial operation in normal use. As per the feedback from the customer site manager, they are quite satisfied with the MS300 plastic sand-making machine, and they believe the output can be further increased.

D&G MACHINERY helps customers choose a suitable sand-making machine based on the following information:

1. According to the Particle Size of the Finished Product; different types of sand-making machines correspond to different sizes of the output particle size, and it is necessary to select the appropriate equipment model according to the required output particle size. When using a sand-making machine, it is essential to make sure the hardness of the material is not too high or the feed particle size not too large,  or it will cut the output of the finished product.

2. According to the Required Output; different types of sand-making machines correspond to different hourly outputs, and the appropriate sand-making machine equipment should be selected according to the actual output. In production and use, when choosing a sand-making machine, we should also pay attention to the matching screening equipment. The size of the screen aperture also directly affects the output of the sand-making machine.

3. According to the Environment of the Sand Making Site of the Production Line; generally speaking, when the production site is relatively large and the raw materials are sufficient, you can consider choosing fixed sand-making machine equipment. When the site is small, choose small sand-making machine equipment; When the material accumulation is relatively scattered, mobile sand-making equipment can be considered to flow and crush the material.

A good sand-making machine not only makes money, but it also saves money – running longer and costing less to maintain. Frequent failures in the production process can lead to high maintenance costs, and prolonged disassembly and maintenance time. Therefore, the sand-making machine with long service life and disassembly and assembly of key wearing parts is preferred to obtain better production results.
