Malaysia’s iron ore mining faces issues like low-grade deposits, high moisture content, and strict environmental regulations. To process these ores efficiently, a well-designed crushing and sand-making production line is essential.
A typical setup includes:
1. Primary Jaw Crusher – Breaks large iron ore lumps (≤1200mm) into smaller pieces (≤350mm). Model: JC120, Feed Size: ≤1200mm, Capacity: 400-800TPH.
2. Secondary Cone Crusher – Further crushes to ≤50mm. Model: HPC300, Max Feed: 350mm, Output: 30-50mm.
3. Tertiary Impact Crusher/VSI Sand Maker – Produces fine aggregates (0-5mm) for high-quality sand. Model: VSI6X1263, Capacity: 200-400TPH, Output Size: 0-5mm adjustable.
| Equipment | Model | Feed Size | Output Size | Capacity |
|———–|——-|———–|————-|———-|
| Jaw Crusher | JC120 | ≤1200mm | ≤350mm | 400-800TPH |
| Cone Crusher | HPC300 | ≤350mm | 30-50mm | 200-500TPH |
| VSI Sand Maker | VSI6X1263 | ≤50mm | 0-5mm | 200-400TPH |

Q1: How to handle high-moisture iron ore?
A: Pre-drying or hot-air drying systems can reduce moisture before crushing.
Q2: What’s the lifespan of wear parts?
A: Jaw plates last ~6 months; VSI rotor tips ~3 months (depends on abrasiveness).

A Malaysian iron ore plant adopted our line (JC120 + HPC300 + VSI6X1263), achieving 500TPH output with 95% usable sand (<5mm). The setup reduced sludge waste by 30% via a dewatering screen add-on.
