Sand making process
Sand making machine is used for artificial sand making purpose, and power from various minerals. It is used in fine and medium size crushing of coarse material, rocks, stones, minerals, building aggregate concrete and other material. SBM Sand making machines are of high efficiency and high performance crusher, low in maintenance and operating cost. 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.

Less than 40mm Sand making process

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.

we just need to transport the satisfied size to the sand making machine by a feed hopper, and When through the role of sand making machine, the final products- artificial sand is formed. After washing in sand washers, the pure sand meeting your requirement is produced.

Larger than 40mm Sand making process

Large stone (input size is larger than 40mm) is transported to jaw crusher via vibrating feeder for primary crushing. Then the crushed materials are screened out into several different types with a vibrating screen. The stone with satisfied size is transported to sand washing machine, while the rest will be back into jaw crusher or cone crusher for breaking again. When through the role of sand making machine, the final products - artificial sand is formed. After washing in sand washers, the pure sand meeting your requirement is produced.

Artificial Sand making flow

The 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, 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.

Artificial Sand

There is scarcity of natural sand due to heavy demand in growing construction activities which forces to find the suitable substitute for sand. The cheapest and the easiest way of getting substitute for natural sand is by crushing natural stone to get artificial sand of desired size and grade which would be free from all impurities.

Builders with shortage of quality sand for construction will need the artificial sand. The distance and the fact that the vehicles are overloaded to make it profitable for operators puts a premium on sand availability.

The advantage of using good river sand is that it mixes easily with concrete and bonds well, making the plastering work less cumbersome for the masons and giving a good finish to the buildings. But on the other hand, the continuous mining of sand causes environmental problems.

In such a scenario, artificial sand is seen as a welcome alternative to natural sand. SBM has hit upon the idea of designing a kind of sand making machine in order to making sands from many kinds of stones. The artificial sand would be available in two grades - 1-3 mm for plastering and 3-5 mm for all construction work. As it would be double-washed and silt-free, it would bond better with concrete and would require lesser curing time than river sand.
