How to make high quality artifical sand

2024-01-20

Sand, as an important building material, is in great demand in various construction projects. However, natural sand is a non-renewable resource, and with countries paying more attention to environmental protection, the extraction of natural sand is increasingly restricted. This is where manufactured sand comes into play. Due to its superior performance and stable quality, manufactured sand is widely used in construction engineering, road construction, concrete manufacturing, artificial landscapes, and other fields.

The production of manufactured sand usually involves using hard rocks such as granite, basalt, limestone, etc., as raw materials. These materials need to be excavated and transported to the production site to begin processing. First, large raw materials are coarsely crushed by a jaw crusher, breaking large stones into smaller pieces. Subsequently, medium-sized stones are sent to a cone crusher or impact crusher for further crushing. Finally, these stones are sent to a vertical shaft impact crusher (VSI crusher) for fine crushing, producing fine and uniform sand particles. After crushing, the sand needs to be screened by a vibrating screen to ensure the uniformity of the sand particle size. The screened sand usually also needs to be washed to remove mud and impurities from the sand.

Artifical sand making

The following equipment is commonly used in the production of manufactured sand: Jaw Crusher: used for the preliminary crushing of large stones; Cone Crusher/Impact Crusher: used for further crushing of medium-grained materials; Vertical Shaft Impact Crusher: used for fine-grained crushing to produce fine and uniform sand particles. Vibrating Screen: used to screen sand particles, ensuring consistency in size and shape. Sand Washer: used to clean the sand, removing mud and impurities.

After the above series of processing, various mineral raw materials are processed into manufactured sand, widely used in various construction projects. The quality of the equipment used is crucial to producing high-quality manufactured sand, so it is essential to compare multiple manufacturers and choose high-quality equipment.
