For hobbyists or small-scale operators, building a homemade stone crusher can be cost-effective. A basic jaw crusher design typically includes:
– 10-15HP electric motor
– 400x600mm crushing chamber
– Adjustable output size (20-80mm)
– Manganese steel wear plates
Modern aggregate plants integrate multiple processing stages:
| Equipment | Key Parameters | Output Capacity |
|---|---|---|
| Jaw Crusher | Feed size: ≤1200mm Power: 90-315kW |
200-1500t/h |
| Cone Crusher | Closed-side setting: 6-38mm Cavity type: Standard/Fine |
150-800t/h |
| VSI Sand Maker | Rotor speed: 1500-3000rpm Max feed: 50mm |
60-520t/h |
| Vibrating Screen | Decks: 2-4 layers Screening area: 5-25m² |

Q1: How to reduce crusher wear?
A: Maintain proper feed size (≤80% of inlet width) and avoid metal contamination.
Q2: What’s the ideal moisture content for screening?
A: Below 5% for efficient dry screening; wet screening required above this level.

Q3: How to improve cubic-shaped aggregates?
A: Use VSI crushers as tertiary stage with proper rotor speed and cascade ratio.
