What is Sand Making Machine?

Sand making machine is also known as impact sand making machine, impact crusher, vertical impact crusher, or impact breaker for short. It consists of seven parts, including feeding, distributor, vortex crushing chamber, impeller experience, main shaft assembly, base transmission device and motor.

VSI series impact sand making machine is a sand making equipment with advanced level developed by our company on the basis of introducing advanced technology from Germany and combining with the actual situation of domestic sand making production after several technical improvements. Its performance plays an irreplaceable role in all kinds of ore fine crushing equipment, and it is the most effective, practical and reliable stone crushing machine.

What Is Sand Making Machine Used For?

Impact sand making machine integrates many kinds of crushing modes and becomes a core equipment in sand making industry. It can be widely used in crushing and shaping of metal ores and non-metallic ores, building materials, artificial sand making and various metallurgical slag.
Impact sand making machine is especially suitable for providing sand and gravel aggregate for high-rise buildings, highway (railroad) construction, municipal engineering, large-scale water conservancy facilities, concrete mixing plant and many other fields.

Sand making machine is widely used in the artificial sand making of metal and non-metallic ores, cement, refractory materials, abrasive materials, glass raw materials, construction aggregates, artificial sand making, river cobbles, mountain rocks (limestone, granite, basalt, gabbro, andesite, etc.), ore tailings, stone chips, construction aggregates, highway surfacing materials, bedding materials, asphalt concrete and cement concrete aggregates production as well as various metallurgical slag of the fine crushing and coarse grinding operations It is more superior than other types of crushers, especially for medium-hard, extra-hard and abrasive materials such as silicon carbide, adamantine, sintered alumina-vanadium earth, magnesia, and so on. Used together with hydraulic jaw crusher, it can process various metallurgical slag. It is suitable for building sand and road construction sand and gravel.

Working Principle of Sand Making Machine

Material from the vibrating feeder into the VSI sand making machine hopper, through the separator will be divided into two parts, part of the middle of the separator into the high-speed rotation of the impeller, the impeller is rapidly accelerated, and then together with the impact to the vortex branch cavity on the material lining layer, by the material lining layer rebound, diagonally upward impact to the top of the vortex cavity, and change its direction of movement, deflection downward movement, from the impeller channel launching out of the material The material launched from the impeller channel forms a continuous material curtain. In this way, a piece of material in the vortex crushing cavity by two to many times the rate of impact, friction and grinding crushing action.

Advantageous features of Sand Making Machine

Low cost investment: reliable operation, easy to operate, high efficiency and energy saving, can be based on different process requirements, the combination of various types of equipment, sand cost investment.
Good granularity of crushed products: high crushing efficiency and low energy consumption. Its crushed products have uniform particle size, natural grain shape, solid and stable materials, so it is often used in construction and engineering fields with strict requirements for sand and gravel materials.
Easy to operate and overhaul: easy to operate and use, equipped with hydraulic cover opening device, which makes the overhaul and replacement of internal parts of the crushing chamber convenient and quick, saving time and labor.
Excellent technology, energy-saving and environmental protection: the application of riveting technology and the application of sand blasting and rust removing treatment and paint spraying technology of automobile technology improve the inner quality and appearance of the equipment.

Sand Making Machine FAQ

Q: What is a sand making machine used for?
A: It crushes rocks, pebbles, and mine waste into artificial sand for construction, concrete, and asphalt. It replaces natural river sand.

2. Q: Can a sand making machine handle wet materials?
A: Yes. Most models can process materials with up to 8-12% moisture. For very wet feed, choose a machine with a heating or anti-sticking design.

3. Q: What is the output size of sand from a sand making machine?
A: You can adjust it from 0-5mm (fine sand) up to 0-10mm (coarse sand). A built-in vibrating screen or a separate screening system can separate different sizes.

4. Q: How much does a sand making machine cost?
A: Prices range from $15,000 to $150,000 USD depending on capacity (30-500 t/h), motor power, and automation level. Contact us for a quote based on your exact rock type and desired output.

5. Q: How long do wear parts last on a sand making machine?
A: It depends on the rock hardness. For medium-hard limestone, wear parts can last 200-400 hours. For very hard granite or basalt, expect 80-150 hours. Using tungsten carbide tips can extend life by 2-3 times.
