Artificial carbonate sand crushers are specialized machines designed to process brittle carbonate rocks (e.g., limestone, dolomite) into high-quality manufactured sand for construction and industrial applications. These crushers combine impact crushing and shaping technologies to produce cubical particles with optimized gradation.
A typical artificial carbonate sand crushing line includes:
1. Primary Jaw Crusher (Feed size: ≤800mm, Capacity: 50-800t/h)
2. Secondary Impact Crusher (With hydraulic adjustment system)
3. Tertiary Sand Maker (VSI-1000 with 400kW motor)
4. High-frequency Screening System (3-4 deck screens)
| Model | Max Feed Size | Capacity | Power |
|---|---|---|---|
| VSI-850 | 45mm | 120-180t/h | 315kW |
| VSI-1000 | 50mm | 200-280t/h | 400kW |
| VSI-1250 | 60mm | 300-380t/h | 500kW |
A limestone processing plant in Turkey implemented a 250tph artificial sand production line featuring:
– Primary crushing with JC110 jaw crusher
– Secondary crushing with PFQ1315 impact crusher
– Final shaping with VSI-1000 sand maker
The plant achieved production of 180tph qualified artificial sand meeting GB/T14684 standard.
Q: What’s the typical wear part life?
A: Impeller blades last 120-200 hours depending on abrasiveness.
Q: How to control powder content?
A: Proper screening configuration and wind sifting can reduce powder below 10%.
Q: Recommended feed moisture content?
A: Below 5% for optimal crushing efficiency.
The artificial carbonate sand crusher system provides reliable solutions for aggregate producers needing consistent quality manufactured sand with adjustable fineness modulus from 2.6
