30 tph Mini Sand Making Machine for Brick Production
For small‑scale brick producers, a 30 tph mini sand making machine for brick production offers an affordable way to produce quality sand from limestone, soft rock, or quarry waste. Brick sand requires a fine, consistent gradation (typically 0‑3 mm) with enough plasticity for forming. Below we explain why a mini VSI is ideal, how to keep costs low, and how OCP Mechanical Company supports brickmakers.
1. Why 30 tph Suits Brick Production
A 30 tph mini sand making machine for brick production is compact, low‑power, and easy to operate. It typically uses a vertical shaft impactor (VSI) or a small hammer crusher to crush feed material (up to 30 mm) into fine sand. At 30 tph, the machine can supply a medium‑sized brick plant running 8‑10 hours daily, producing 240‑300 tons of sand per day – enough for 60,000‑80,000 bricks (depending on mix design).
OCP offers the Type B mini VSI, a single‑chassis unit with integrated feed hopper, rotor, and discharge conveyor. Note: Product data are constantly updated; for the latest specifications of Type B, please contact our online customer service.
Typical parameters for a 30 tph mini sand making machine for brick production (for illustration only; actual data subject to continuous improvement):
Feed size: 5‑30 mm (limestone, dolomite, soft sandstone)
Rotor speed: 1,500‑2,000 rpm (VFD optional)
Motor power: 55‑75 kW
Output sand: 0‑3 mm, 70‑80% passing 1.18 mm
Weight: approx. 5,000 kg
The above values are for illustration only. OCP continuously improves its products. Contact our online team for the most current data sheet.
Many brick producers in East Africa, South Asia, and Latin America have adopted the Type B, reporting consistent sand that improves brick strength and reduces cement consumption.
2. Features That Lower Cost for Brickmakers
Operating a 30 tph mini sand making machine for brick production requires low wear part cost and simple maintenance. Key features include:
Tungsten carbide or chrome iron tips – For soft limestone, chrome iron tips last 400‑600 hours; for harder rock, carbide is recommended.
Rock‑on‑rock or anvil chamber – Anvil configuration produces more fines, which is beneficial for brick sand.
Simple manual control – No complex PLC needed; start/stop with push buttons.
Electric or diesel drive – Diesel option for sites without reliable grid power.
OCP’s Type B machine uses a single‑port rotor with bolt‑on tips, making replacement quick. Many brickmakers find that a set of chrome tips processes 15,000‑25,000 tons of limestone before needing change. Actual tip life varies with rock hardness – please ask our engineers for a site‑specific estimate.
To keep your 30 tph mini sand making machine for brick production running economically, we recommend:
Pre‑screening feed to remove fines below 5 mm (reduces tip wear).
Operating at moderate rotor speed (1,600‑1,800 rpm) to balance output and wear.
Inspecting tips weekly and rotating them when uneven wear appears.
As a direct‑selling manufacturer, OCP provides factory pricing on wear parts and can ship to any major port within 15‑20 days. For brickmakers, we also offer a basic spare parts kit (one set of tips, one set of belts, and a screen panel) at a discounted package price.
3. Why OCP Is a Reliable Partner for Small Producers
