For processing brown heather quarry tiles (200mm) into high-quality sand and aggregates, a tailored crushing and sand-making production line is essential. This system typically includes primary crushing, secondary crushing, screening, and sand shaping stages to achieve optimal particle size distribution.
| Equipment | Model | Key Parameters |
|---|---|---|
| Jaw Crusher | PE-600×900 | Feed size: ≤500mm, Capacity: 50-160t/h |
| Cone Crusher | HPT300 | Max feed: 240mm, Output: 70-400t/h |
| Vertical Shaft Impact Crusher | VSI-1140 | Throughput: 120-360t/h, Finished sand modulus: 2.4-3.0 |
| Vibrating Screen | 3YK3070 | Screening area: 7.5m², Layers: 3 |

The raw quarry tiles are first crushed by the jaw crusher to below 150mm. Secondary crushing via cone crusher reduces material to ≤40mm. The VSI crusher then shapes the particles into cubic sand with excellent gradation. Final screening separates products into 0-5mm (mechanism sand), 5-10mm, and 10-20mm aggregates.
Q1: What’s the recommended moisture content for processing?
A: Ideal moisture should be below 5% to prevent clogging in crushers.
Q2: How to control dust during production?
A: Implement water spray systems at transfer points and use enclosed conveyors.

Q3: What’s the typical yield of finished sand from raw tiles?
