Crusher and sand-making machine, both of which are used as crushing equipment for sand and gravel production, are more commonly used. Many friends asked a question, is it OK to use a crusher to process machine-made sand? Or ask, can the production of sand and gravel mixture be achieved with a crusher? These problems are because everyone does not know the specific difference between a crusher and a sand-making machine. The difference between the two can be summarized in the following five aspects:
1. Different types
Sand-making machine, also known as impact crusher, although the sand-making machine is also one of the types of crushers, the fineness of finished products is quite different. There are many types of crushers: jaw crusher, cone crusher, impact crusher, and mobile crusher.
2. Different uses
The sand-making machine is processed by the crushing principle of "stone hitting stone" and "stone hitting iron". ). Especially suitable for construction sand and road construction sand.
The crusher is mainly used for crushing medium hardness and brittle materials, such as granite, river pebbles, pebbles, limestone, etc.
3. The crushing sequence is different
Crusher is generally used in the stone production line for one-stage crushing. Sand-making machines are generally used for sand-making production lines and gravel production lines, and are used for secondary crushing.
4. Feed particle size is different
The feed particle size of the crusher is relatively large, and the diameter is generally about 1 to 2 meters. It can directly crush the large stones mined from the mountain. The feed particle size of the sand making machine is relatively small, generally controlled at about 20~30cm, and the feed particle size is also clearly specified, which cannot exceed the limit set by the equipment, otherwise the equipment will be easily damaged.
5. The particle size of the finished product is different
The crusher is mainly used for crushing, so the particle size of the finished product is above the sand-making machine, which is generally controlled below 25cm so that the sand-making machine can carry out the next step of processing. The particle size of the sand processed by the sand-making machine will be controlled by 5mm. Generally, the finished product is screened, and the sand that meets the construction sand standard is selected.
In fact, these differences can be summed up in one piece, that is, these are two types of devices used for different purposes. One is for crushing stones and the other is for processing sand. Although these two are very different, their place in sand and gravel production is equally important.
As a carbide products manufacturer, the crushing carbide hammerhead, sand making carbide strip, Secondary conveyor belt scraper carbide blade cleaner and the carbide chute liner plates that we produce used for crushing, sand-making and material conveying and transferring respectively have become one of our main advantages.
