For barite mining operations like China’s Zhashui Heqi project, a tailored crushing and sand-making production line is critical to achieve high-purity baryte powder (BaSO₄) for industrial applications. Here’s a professional breakdown of the equipment and process.
1. Primary Jaw Crusher
– Model: PE600×900
– Feed size: ≤500mm
– Capacity: 50–160 t/h
– Power: 55–75 kW
2. Secondary Cone Crusher
– Model: HPT300
– Closed-side setting: 19–51mm
– Capacity: 120–400 t/h
3. Tertiary Impact Crusher/VSI Sand Maker
– Model: VSI6X1263
– Max feed size: 60mm
– Output fineness: 0–5mm (adjustable)
4. Vibrating Screen & Conveyors
– Screen layers: 2–4
– Mesh customization: 5–30mm
– Stage 1: Raw barite ore → Jaw crusher (coarse crushing) → ≤150mm output.
– Stage 2: Cone crusher (intermediate crushing) → ≤30mm output.
– Stage 3: VSI crusher (fine shaping/sand making) → 0–5mm baryte sand.
