Mining Handling Equipment for Crushing and Sand Making Lines in Africa

Africa’s mining sector demands robust crushing and sand-making equipment to process hard rock and produce high-quality aggregates. Key machinery includes jaw crushers, cone crushers, impact crushers, and sand makers, tailored for granite, basalt, and iron ore processing.

Core Equipment Specifications

50-100

Equipment Model Capacity (t/h) Power (kW)
Jaw Crusher PE-600×900 50-120 75
Cone Crusher HPT300 80-200 315
Vertical Shaft Impact Crusher VSI1140 100-260 250×2
Sand Washer LX-915 11

Production Line Configuration Example

A typical 200tph granite processing line in Zambia:
1. Primary crushing: PE-750×1060 jaw crusher
2. Secondary crushing: HST160 single-cylinder cone crusher
3. Tertiary shaping: VSI5X1145 sand maker
4. Screening: 3YK2460 vibrating screen

FAQ Section

Q1: How to choose between cone crusher and impact crusher?
A: Cone crushers suit hard rocks (>300MPa), while impact crushers work better for medium-hard materials with higher shaping requirements.

Q2: What’s the lifespan of wear parts?
A: Manganese steel jaws last ~6 months in granite crushing; VSI rotor tips require replacement every 400-500 hours.
