With the increase in infrastructure construction, the construction of roads, railways, buildings, and the construction of bridges and houses continuously increase the demand for sand and gravel aggregates. The supply of river sand can no longer meet the market demand. The machine-made sand has high quality and excellent grain shape. It has also been used in construction projects, gradually replacing river sand.

The increasing demands of sand makes the sand price higher and higher so the machine made sand comes into people’s view. Many users is optimistic about the manufactured sand industry and invest in sand making industry. But there are still many people know little about the it, such as what raw materials can be made into sand? Which sand making plant has good effect? The following texts will give you detailed answer.

What is the raw material of artificial sand?

Many stones can be made into sand such as cobble stone, river stone, andesite, granite, orthoclase, limestone, basalt, land waste, etc. But these stone has different hardness, lumpiness, nature.

The global ore resources are rich and the storage is large. Therefore, most users choose mountain rocks for sand making. In addition, a large amount of construction waste such as bricks and concrete will be generated during the renovation of buildings can also be made into machine-made sand through sand making equipment. And the cost of raw materials is lower, and the material is easy to obtain. It can also realize the transformation of waste into treasure and bring huge profits. Which sand making plant has good effect?

After understanding the raw materials, the next step is to purchase sand-making equipment. The artificial sand-making production process is mainly divided into crushing and sand making. The sand-making process affects the particle size and quality of the machine-made sand. Therefore, the production effect of sand making machine determines the user's economic benefits. Which sand making equipment has a good production effect? Here are two common devices.

1. Vertical shaft impact crusher

Vertical shaft impact crusher (VSI sand making machine) is the commonly used plant in stationary sand makers. It integrates advanced production process home and abroad and adopts deep cavity impellers which effectively improves the production capacity of VSI sand maker. Besides, its finished products has good shape (cubic) and has high industrial value.

2. Mobile sand making machine

Mobile sand making machine is a moveable sand making plant. Track mounted configuration helps it integrating crush, vibration and screen. It is suitable for unfixed venue or site, and it has no need to built foundation, which is convenient and flexible for transactions.

The raw materials selected for artificial sand making are different, the particle size requirements of the finished product are different, so the type of sand making equipment selected is also different. The user should choose the sand making machine equipment according to their own production needs.
