Investing in a crusher plant requires understanding core equipment and production parameters. A typical sand/aggregate production line includes:
1. Primary Jaw Crusher (e.g., Feed size: ≤1,200mm, Capacity: 50-800t/h)
2. Secondary Cone/Impact Crusher (Output: 0-40mm adjustable)
3. Vibrating Screen (Layers: 2-4, Screening efficiency: ≥90%)
4. Sand Maker (VSI Crusher) (Finished sand: 0-5mm, Shape index: ≤15%)

| Equipment | Model Example | Power (kW) | Output (t/h) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Jaw Crusher | PE750×1060 | 110 | 110-320 |
| Cone Crusher | HPT300 | 315 | 200-500 |
| VSI Sand Maker | S8-1145 | 250×2 | 100-280 |

Q1: What’s the ROI period for a 200t/h plant?
A: Typically 12-24 months, depending on local material prices and demand.
Q2: How to reduce dust pollution?
A: Install water spray systems + bag filters (dust concentration ≤20mg/m³).
Q3: Granite vs. limestone – which is better for sand?
A: Granite offers higher strength (≥MPa150), but limestone is easier to crush (lower wear cost).
