Stone is air classified according to size or density. Air classification provides the most effective means for separating a product from a feed stream, for dedusting, or when used in conjunction with grinding equipment for increasing productivity.

Stone can also be reduced in particle size with Sturtevant’s Crushers. The crushers are best-suited for controlling the reduction of friable materials to granules where fines are undesirable. Crushers also reduce particle size for fine grinding to coarse crushing capabilities.

Limestone, granite, trap rock, sandstone, basalt, diabase rock, gabbro, sand and gravel are examples of stones that often need to be size reduced or air separated.
