Ball Drying Section |
| Proppant is made of Bauxite, Manganese Powder, Dolomite and Mineralizer etc. Materials Quality decides proppant quality. |
|
| Materials are crushed by Jaw-Crusher, then milled by Ball Mill to make sure powder fineness suitable for manufacturing. |
|
| Different powder will be mixed based on accurate materials prescriptions. Prescription will decide proppant property. |
|
| Mixed powder will be made ball. Water control is key point. This section will decide production Capacity essentially. |
|
| Semi-Ball will be dried by Dry Kiln here before sintering, Moisure content has obvious effect on proppant property. |

Cooling Section |
Classification Screening |
Inspection & Warehousing |
| Semi-Ball will be screened in this section. Here the screen mesh is bigger because ball will shrink after sintering. |
|
| Qualified Semi-Finished Ball will be sintered at temperature of 1300-1400 ℃, Temprature control in sintering is key point. |
|
| After Sintering,, the Sintered Proppant will be cooled by water & wind in this section for further processing. |
|
| In this section, Finished Proppant will be screened & classified according to different particle size & packed according to Contracts. |
|
| Finished Proppant will be tested & stocked according to different production Batch No. , Contract No. & Different Specifications. |
