subject: Machine-made Sand And How To Make It [print this page] As we all know, sand is widely used in highway construction, concrete making, etc. As the field of industry application gradually expanded, the gradual application of natural sand work more and failed to keep pace with the various sectors of modern world development needs. For the most part, machine-made sand is produced to meet the great needs. Here you can learn more about definition of machine-made sand and how to make it. Machine-made sand is also called manufactured sand, which was produced by crush the cobble stone or other stone into sand by sand making machine. As the basic materials of concrete, cement mortar of architectural sand, Successful application of artificial sand is an indisputable fact that a large number of engineering practices (including the Three Gorges Project) has demonstrated the possibility and necessity of using sand.Crusher becomes the core equipment in sand making business. It adopts Germanic advanced technique and owns a number of patents and independent intellectual property rights. VSI5x series VSI crusher is highly recommended to crush high hardness materials as iron ore, nonferrous metals, corundum, and bauxite, quartz sand, basalt, etc Sand making flow requirementIn recent years, with the rapid construction development home and abroad, Huge demands for construction sand sharply rise, but the amount of natural sand collected by the natural river washed sand restrictions and sand mining has been unable to satisfy the amount of sand required for the construction development.Our high proficiency Sand making machines are designed and manufactured to produce fine quality sand with high productivity output. The final product is cubic with grounded edges. Artificial sand and aggregate is used in preparing good quality concrete for building and construction purpose, so the sand particle must be equiexed cuboidal and glommed edges.When the input size of your materials is smaller than 40mm,we recommend you the sand making flow equipped with vsi5x series sand making machine ,vibrating screen, sand washing machine, etc; otherwise, we have another solution designed for you,This flow is equipped with vibrating feeder, jaw crusher, impact crusher (optional ), cone crusher, vsi5x series sand making machine,vibrating screen and sand washing machine. flotation machine:http://www.china-mills.com/p16.html impact crusher for sale:http://www.hxjqchina.com/n69.htmlAccording to different process requirements, various types of equipment can be combined to meet the technological requirements of different customers. Process flows of the sand-making production lineThe raw material is transferred to jaw crusher for primary crushing by vibrating feeder, then the crushed materials whose size is larger than 40 mm are transferred to vsi crusher through belt conveyor for secondary crushing. The materials crushed will be transferred to the vibrating screen. The materials with suitable size will be transferred to vsi crusher, after being washed by sand washers, then clean final products will be discharged. The others with unsuitable size will be screened from vibrating screen, and then will be transferred to the vsi crusher, this forms a closed circuit manifold cycles. Sizes of final products will be according to our customers requirements. If it is the dry process, the classifier and deduster will be attached according to you requirement.Main features of artificial sand: Now most of them are medium, coarse sand, the fineness modulus is of 2.6-3.6 in turbid, particle size distribution even and adjustable, with a certain amount of powder, rough surface, sharp edges.High strength pumping concrete made by artificial sand will not block the pump in the process of pumping. The concrete of right use of artificial sand has large density, impermeability, good freezing-resisting property, other physical properties and long-term durability can use to meet the design requirement too.As the professional manufacturer of complete sets of mining machinery, such as cement equipment, Henan Hongxing is always doing the best in products and service.
