What is the sand making machine of quartz sand

The sand making machine commonly used for making quartz sand is called the quartz sand making machine or the quartz sand maker. There are several types of sand making machines available, but one of the most commonly used machines for quartz sand production is the vertical shaft impact crusher (VSI crusher).

The VSI crusher is a high-efficiency rock crushing equipment with the principle of stone-on-stone crushing. It uses a unique rock-on-rock crushing method, where rocks are fed into the machine and crushed against each other. This process produces high-quality cubical-shaped sand particles.

The quartz sand making machine typically consists of a hopper, a distributor, a vortex crushing cavity, an impeller, a main shaft assembly, a base, a transmission device, and a motor. The quartz rocks are fed into the hopper and evenly distributed by the distributor. Then, they are accelerated by the high-speed rotating impeller and impacted against the vortex crushing cavity. This collision and crushing process results in the production of quartz sand particles.

The VSI crusher is known for its excellent particle shape and good gradation control, making it suitable for producing high-quality quartz sand used in various applications such as construction, concrete production, and glass manufacturing.

It’s worth noting that while the VSI crusher is commonly used for quartz sand production, other types of sand making machines such as cone crushers or horizontal shaft impact crushers can also be used depending on the specific requirements of the application.
