With the continuous advancement of infrastructure projects, the demand for sand is constantly increasing. In the past, sand quarries typically extracted sand from rivers; now, the main task of modern sand quarries is to process large stones into high-quality manufactured sand. To meet market demand, sand quarries need to be equipped with a complete set of sand-making equipment. This article will detail the equipment required to start a sand quarry and its configuration.

Understanding Sand Quarry Equipment Prices

I. Main Equipment for Starting a Sand Quarry

1. Coarse Crushing Equipment (Optional)

Jaw Crusher: Suitable for crushing large stones (≤1.5 meters) into medium or small pieces. The jaw crusher is a classic piece of equipment in the mining industry, characterized by its simple structure, economical price, and convenient maintenance, suitable for the coarse crushing needs of most sand quarries. If the raw material particle size is small, this step can be omitted.

2. Medium Crushing Equipment (Essential)

Fine Jaw Crusher: Suitable for medium crushing of stones with higher hardness.

Impact Crusher: Suitable for medium crushing of brittle materials with low hardness, providing good finished product shaping and excellent particle shape.

Cone Crusher: Utilizes the principle of layered crushing, suitable for medium crushing of hard stone, offering high crushing efficiency and uniform finished particle size.

3. Fine Crushing Equipment (Essential)

Impact Sand Making Machine: Suitable for high-output needs, highly intelligent, producing good finished particle shape.

Hydraulic Opening Sand Making Machine: Suitable for small and medium-sized sand and gravel plants, offering moderate output, high cost-effectiveness, and good finished particle shape.
