For barite sand production, a specialized crushing and screening line is essential to achieve high-purity finished products. The system typically includes a vibratory feeder (such as the Google GVF series), jaw crusher, cone crusher, vibrating screen, and dust collector.

| Equipment | Model | Key Parameters |
|---|---|---|
| Vibratory Feeder | Google GVF-380 | Capacity: 80-150t/h, Power: 1.5kW |
| Jaw Crusher | PE600×900 | Inlet: 600×900mm, Capacity: 50-160t/h |
| Cone Crusher | CS160 | Max Feed: 178mm, Capacity: 109-181t/h |
| Vibrating Screen | 3YK1860 | Screening Area: 10.8m², Layers: 3 |
The raw barite ore is fed by the Google vibratory feeder to the jaw crusher for primary crushing. Secondary crushing occurs in the cone crusher before material classification via vibrating screens. Oversize material returns for re-crushing while qualified products proceed to storage.
Q1: Why choose vibratory feeders for barite processing?
A1: They provide steady material flow with adjustable feed rates and prevent bridging of sticky materials.

Q2: What’s the final product size range?
A2: Typically 0-5mm, 5-10mm, and 10-20mm grades can be achieved.
A recent installation in Tanzania processes 120tph of barite ore using this configuration. The Google GVF-380 feeder demonstrated exceptional performance in handling moist barite material with zero clog
