China’s Mining Equipment Industry: Crushing and Sand-Making Production Lines

The mining equipment sector in China has rapidly evolved, offering advanced crushing and sand-making production lines for aggregates processing. These systems integrate jaw crushers, cone crushers, impact crushers, and sand makers to produce high-quality sand and gravel for construction, highways, and concrete.

Core Equipment in Sand & Aggregate Production

1. Primary Crushing: Jaw Crusher (e.g., PE-600×900) with a feed size of 500mm and output of 50–160 t/h.
2. Secondary Crushing: Hydraulic Cone Crusher (e.g., HPT300) processing ≤200mm material to 25–60mm at 120–400 t/h.
3. Tertiary Crushing: Vertical Shaft Impact Crusher (VSI-1140) producing 0–5mm sand at 120–240 t/h.

Typical Production Line Configuration

| Equipment | Model | Capacity (t/h) | Power (kW) | Output Size (mm) |
|——————–|————|—————-|————|——————|
| Jaw Crusher | PE-750×1060| 110–320 | 110 | 80–140 |
| Cone Crusher | HST315 | 180–630 | 315 | ≤38 |
| Sand Maker | VSI5X1145 | 100–380 | 440 | 0–5 |

FAQ

Q: What’s the lifespan of wear parts in a VSI crusher?
A: Tungsten carbide tips last ~120 hours for granite; martensitic alloys extend to 200+ hours.

Q: How to reduce dust in sand production?
A: Use wet processing or install bag filters/pulse dust collectors.
