Compact Ore Crusher Solutions for Small-Scale Miners

Small-scale miners require robust yet cost-effective crushing equipment to process ores efficiently. A tailored ore crusher setup typically includes a jaw crusher, hammer mill, and vibrating screen, designed for low-capacity operations (1-5 TPH).

Key Equipment & Parameters

Equipment Model Capacity (TPH) Power (kW)
Jaw Crusher PE-150×250 1-3 5.5
Hammer Mill PCΦ400×300 2-5 7.5
Vibrating Screen SZZ-600×1200 3-6 1.1

Crusher-to-Sand Production Workflow

The process begins with primary crushing via a jaw crusher (<50mm output), followed by secondary grinding in a hammer mill (<10mm). A vibrating screen separates fines (0-5mm) as sand, while larger particles are recirculated.

Suitability for Small Mines FAQ

– Q: Can this handle hard rock like quartz?
A: Yes, jaw/hammer combos work for Mohs 6-7 materials but wear parts need frequent replacement.
– Q: Power requirements?
A: Diesel generators (15-20kVA) suffice for mobile setups.

Tanzania Gold Ore Case Study

A 3TPH plant processed oxidized gold ore (~8g/t) using PE-150×250 + PCΦ400×300, achieving 85% -200mesh liberation. Sand byproduct was sold locally for construction.
