Gypsum mining equipment

Gypsum mining equipment is the most important equipment in gypsum mining, processing gypsum ores into industrial gypsum products. Gypsum mining equipments include gypsum crusher, gypsum mill and other gypsum processing equipments.

According to gypsum application, we can see that gypsum mining equipments can be widely used in industries like cement, paper making, painting materials, wall decoration and soil concentration, etc. SBM design gypsum mining equipments to meet requirements from customers all over the world. As the Mosh Hardness of gypsum is 2, between talc and limestone, all of SBM gypsum crushers and grinding mills can finish the mining gypsum process.

Gypsum mining processing line

As gypsum is widely used in cement, paper making, painting materials, wall decoration and soil concentration, we need different processing technic to process gypsum, but the physical gypsum mining process is the same.

Firstly, gypsum quarry is exploded from gypsum mines – exploding process. Then it comes into the crushing stage: gypsum quarry is fed into primary gypsum crushing plant and gets crushed into lump gypsum which is fit for the next heating process. Gypsum quarry is heated in the heating process with different temperatures and into different industrial materials. With the temperature 128℃, gypsum quarry is heated into hemihydrate gypsum with high hydraulic activity, which makes it the important cementing material. With the temperature 163℃, gypsum quarry is heated into anhydrite whose chemical and physical property is steady. Anhydrite is usually used as abrasive, lacquer putty and common plastering materials. With the temperature 600℃ to 800℃, gypsum is heated into anhydrite cementing material. With the temperature 900℃ to 1000℃, gypsum is heated into high-fired gypsum Both anhydrite cementing material and high-fired gypsum are the excellent construction gypsum materials and they are featured with better heat-insulating property, abrasive resistance and water resisting property. After heating stage, gypsum quarry will get grinded into powder with gypsum mills. Gypsum powder will then be processed into many kinds of industrial materials or consumer goods.
