However, there are also users who bought a sand maker and found a lot of problems when operation. One of the most troublesome is the blocking.

There are many reasons that may cause blockage of material when using sand making equipment, such as material, user operation and equipment. So how should we solve this question?

The essay will help you analyze the reasons.

1. Unsuitable material

Mudstone with high water content is easy to adhere to the sand making machine. The most effective solution is to preheat the material at the inlet. It's also easy to lead material blockage when material is too hard or too large, so we should crush material into proper size before delivering.

2. The feeding speed is too fast

If feeding and processing speed cannot be well matched, such as fast feeding and slow crushing, it may cause machine plugging material because of too late to discharge. Users should ensure uniform and continuous feeding to avoid the blocking problem of equipment.

In addition, we should pay attention to the ammeter pointer changes when feeding. Generally speaking, the larger the feed amount is the wider ammeter pointer deflection angle is. As we all know, long time overload will damage the electrical machinery. We should reduce or close the material door immediately (or you can choose increase feeder to control input quantity) to prevent sand maker from blocking.

3. The tightness of triangle belt is not appropriate

The sand making machine uses a V-belt to drive the sheave and crush the material. Abnormal slipping may occur – the pulley will not work properly if the V-belt is loose. The material cannot be crushed, so blockage will occur.

4. Improper adjustment of discharge

During sand production, if the discharge speed is too slow, subsequent materials will accumulate at the discharge outlet (and possibly in the crushing chamber), resulting in discharge blockage.

5. Coordination with other equipment.

When the material you choose to transport exceeds the crushing capacity, this will lead to materials cannot be fully crushed and then enter into crusher quickly.

6. Heavy wear of parts

When quick-wear parts are badly damaged, the material entered into sand making machine cannot be fully crushed and discharged. Therefore, users should replace wear parts in time.

7. Voltage is too low or unstable

The actual capacity of sand making machine will be lower than the theoretical capacity. If the speed of feeding material is not adjusted, there would be blockage. We should maintain a stable voltage during equipment operation.

8. Wrong operation

Wrong operation is a common reason that sand making machine may be blocked by material. In this case, it's important for operator to train systematically. They can't operate until they are familiar with the operation.

The above is all analysis about how to solve the sand making machine blocking. Here I would like to remind you that we should try to choose formal manufacturers when purchasing sand making machines. Thus not only can ensure the quality of sand making machine but avoid some problem in the operation.
