2 Types Sand Making Machines to Improve Your Crushing Rate

author:dahua2 time:2026-08-21

In the sand and gravel aggregate production line, sand making machines are the core equipment for processing hard and brittle materials such as rocks, ores, and construction waste into manufactured sand that meets national standards. They are widely used in construction, highways, railways, water conservancy, and other fields, and are key equipment for replacing natural sand resources and ensuring the supply of sand and gravel for engineering construction. With the market demand for sand and gravel aggregates constantly increasing, "high output" and "high durability" have become the two most crucial indicators for sand and gravel plants when selecting equipment.
 
Currently, commonly used sand making machines on the market are mainly divided into several categories, including vertical shaft impact crushers and vertical compound crushers. The output level is mainly judged by the equipment's hourly processing capacity, continuous operation stability, and discharge efficiency under the same power consumption. Durability, on the other hand, depends primarily on the material of wearing parts, the rationality of the structural design, and the equipment's overload protection capabilities. Both factors jointly determine the overall operating profitability of the sand and gravel production line.
 
2 Types Sand Making Machines to Improve Your Crushing Rate
 
1. Vertical Shaft Impact Crusher (Sand Making Machine)
 
The vertical shaft impact crusher adopts a "stone-on-stone/stone-on-iron" impact crushing mode, suitable for materials of all hardness levels. The produced finished product has uniform particle shape and low iron contamination. Dahua Heavy Machinery's PLS vertical crusher has a production capacity ranging from 24 to 1100 tons per hour, equipped with a sealed protective structure, ensuring that dust and noise emissions meet environmental standards. It uses impellers and liners made of high-wear-resistant alloy, with key components machined to a precision of approximately 0.01 mm. Combined with a thin oil lubrication system, it ensures long-term stable operation of the main shaft. The compact structure and self-lining crushing chamber design allow for direct collision crushing of materials, significantly reducing direct wear on metal parts. Decades of market testing in metal ore pre-processing and hard rock fine crushing scenarios have demonstrated its extremely high operational stability.
 
2. Vertical Compound Crusher (Sand Making Machine)
 
The vertical compound crusher utilizes multi-stage compound impact to crush materials, achieving a large crushing ratio. The entire series offers output capacities ranging from 8 to 200 tons per hour. It features a screenless design, minimizing the impact of material moisture content and handling materials with approximately 8% moisture content without clogging. Internally equipped with a full copper core motor and highly wear-resistant hammers, the machine operates at a noise level below 75 decibels. It boasts stable operation, a low failure rate, high reusability of wearing parts, and a simple, easy-to-maintain structure, making it suitable for the low-cost production needs of small and medium-sized sand and gravel plants.
 
In summary, different types of sand making machines have their own advantages in terms of output and durability. We should choose according to our own materials, site, and output requirements, combining factors such as stone hardness, finished product particle size, production capacity targets, and power supply conditions. Choosing a good manufacturer is also crucial. Reputable manufacturers have mature technology, lower wear on wear parts, and more reliable after-sales maintenance, effectively reducing the risk of later production failures and creating higher returns for the project.
