Can granite sand be made into building sand

Can granite be made into manufactured sand? Yes, granite sand, after being processed by a professional granite sand making machine, produces high-quality aggregate that can meet the needs of building sand. Granite has a high quartz content and low sulfide content, making it hard, dense, strong, corrosion-resistant, and wear-resistant. This hard rock has a compressive strength greater than 30MPa, making it an excellent raw material for sand making. It is very common in major manufactured sand plants, and can be processed into various sizes of finished stone products (0-5-10-15-20-30mm) to meet the material needs of construction, building materials, cement, roads, and other fields.

The granite sand making process, due to the hardness of granite, generally requires three stages: jaw crusher + hydraulic cone crusher + sand making machine.

First, the granite enters the jaw crusher for coarse crushing. Aggregates meeting the requirements are then transported by belt conveyor to the cone crusher for further crushing. Aggregates not meeting the requirements are returned to the jaw crusher for further crushing via a return conveyor. After being crushed at the cone crusher, aggregates meeting the requirements are transported by belt conveyor to the sand making machine for sand production, while those not meeting the requirements are returned to the cone crusher for further crushing. The crushed material in the sand making plant can then be directly separated into finished sand and gravel products of different particle sizes through a screening station.

Special attention should be paid to the purchase of sand making equipment for the sand and gravel production line. Only by selecting suitable sand making equipment can the output and particle size distribution of the finished product be guaranteed.

The main reason for the rapid development of manufactured sand is the abundance and low cost of raw materials. It is understood that manufactured sand, made from crushed, sand-processed, and washed raw materials, is significantly more expensive than raw sand and gravel, with prices potentially fluctuating depending on the region. Furthermore, manufactured sand boasts better particle shape and higher quality, resulting in an even higher price. Therefore, the profit margin for manufactured sand is indeed substantial.
