How To Produce Artificial Sand With Pebbles?


Pebbles are a common type of stone, named after their pebble-like shape. About 96% of pebbles are made of silicon dioxide (SiO2), and the main component of natural sand is also silicon dioxide. Using pebbles to produce machine-made sand is equivalent to a "reduction reaction".
 
 
Pebbles are widely distributed, and their resources are relatively easy to obtain, with great development value. How can pebbles be "reduced" to machine-made sand better and faster? Because pebbles are hard, compressive, and wear-resistant, these characteristics determine that the process of producing machine-made sand from pebbles is not so simple, so it is necessary to choose the correct and high-quality processing equipment.
 
The pebbles seen in general life are small in size, but the pebbles in many places are distributed in a sedimentary state and are large in size. Therefore, from a general perspective, the production process must go through three stages of coarse crushing, medium and fine crushing, and sand making. The main crushing equipment to be used is jaw crusher, cone crusher, and sand making machine.
 

Jaw crusher - coarse crushing

 
The jaw crusher has a strong crushing capacity and is used in the first stage of crushing. It can crush hard materials such as large-diameter pebbles. It is an important part of the production line.
 
Our jaw crusher has a large crushing ratio and high output. It has many unique designs. The deep V-shaped crushing chamber allows materials to enter the crushing chamber without hindrance, improving the feeding capacity; the motor and crusher are designed as one-piece, the whole machine is small, saving working space; the bolted frame avoids the risk of stress concentration and improves the convenience of transportation.
 

Cone crusher - medium and fine crushing

 
Cone crusher can be used for further crushing of various hard materials, such as pebbles, granite, basalt, which are hard and commonly used sand making raw materials. Cone crusher has good wear resistance and the finished product particle shape is relatively ideal. Taking the commonly used hydraulic cone crusher as an example, it can be divided into single-cylinder and multi-cylinder types.
 
Our single-cylinder hydraulic cone crusher is an ideal fine crushing equipment with the advantages of low operating cost and high performance, constant feeding capacity, large production volume, high yield rate, and long liner service life. Our multi-cylinder hydraulic cone crusher adopts a laminated crushing chamber design, and the product has uniform particle size, mostly cubic particle shape, and low energy consumption.
 

Impact sand making machine-sand making

 
Impact sand making machine is a type of sand making machine that is currently widely used. The impact sand making machine adopts the crushing principle of stone hitting stone and stone hitting iron, with high production efficiency, good wear resistance of internal vulnerable parts, durability, and low maintenance cost.
 
Our impact sand making machine integrates multiple crushing modes and is the core equipment of the sand making industry. The "peripheral feeding + center feeding" production mode can obtain good product particle shape and grading, and the "center feeding" production mode can make the crushing efficiency higher and the crushing ratio larger.
 
The above are the main crushing equipment for building a pebble sand making production line. In addition, the production line must also be equipped with vibrating screens, feeders, belt conveyors, etc. The specific configuration of which models requires customers to make reasonable configurations based on production capacity, on-site conditions, finished product particle size and other requirements. Generally speaking, large-scale production lines pay attention to economy, and small-scale production lines minimize production processes. Of course, the design of the pebble sand production line should also follow a series of specifications, involving site selection, building structure, water supply and drainage and many other aspects.
