We are excited to announce that Baichy Machinery has successfully shipped a VSI8518 Sand Making Machine to Ethiopia, reinforcing our commitment to supporting Africa's growing construction and mining industries. This high-performance sand maker is designed to produce high-quality artificial sand for concrete, asphalt, and infrastructure projects.
The VSI8518 Sand Making Machine is main product of Baichy Machinery for outstanding performance. At the heart of this machine lies a high - speed rotor, which, driven by a powerful motor, accelerates the materials to high velocities. As the materials enter the crushing chamber, they are subjected to intense impacts, either against each other (in the rock - on - rock crushing mode) or against wear - resistant liners (in the rock - on - steel mode). This dual - mode operation provides flexibility, enabling the machine to handle a wide range of materials, from soft limestone to hard granite, with remarkable efficiency.
Input: Crushed stone (≤50mm)
Output: 0-5mm sand with >90% cubical particles (ideal for strong concrete)
Capacity: 60-150 TPH (adjustable based on material hardness)
Tungsten carbide rotor tips – Resistant to abrasion from hard rocks
Hydraulic lid opening – Easy access for maintenance
Automatic lubrication system – Extends bearing life
30% less power consumption than traditional sand makers
Stable performance even in high-temperature Ethiopian climates
Built-in dust suppression – Reduces airborne particles
Low noise operation – Suitable for urban construction
The Ethiopian construction sector is rapidly expanding, with increasing demand for:
✔ Affordable, high-grade sand (alternative to scarce river sand)
✔ Sustainable solutions (recycling construction waste into sand)
✔ Mobile-ready equipment (for remote project sites)
✅ Compact footprint – Easy to install in limited spaces
✅ Versatile material processing – Works with granite, basalt, and recycled concrete
✅ Low operating costs – Saves on fuel and maintenance
Replaces expensive river sand with machine-made sand (saving 40% material costs)
Improves concrete strength due to angular particle shape
Produces ASTM C33-compliant sand for asphalt mixes
Processes local basalt into durable road base materials
Converts waste rock into saleable sand – zero material waste
Ideal for gold and copper mining regions (e.g., Tigray, Oromia)
Parameter Specification
