Quartzite, a hard and durable metamorphic rock, is widely used in construction, road building, and industrial applications. To process quartzite into high-quality sand or powder, specialized crushing equipment and production lines are essential.
1. Jaw Crusher (Primary Crushing)
– Processes large quartzite blocks (≤1200mm) into smaller pieces (≤350mm).
– Power: 55–160 kW | Feed Size: ≤1200mm | Output: 50–800 TPH
2. Cone Crusher / Impact Crusher (Secondary Crushing)
– Further reduces material to ≤50mm for sand-making input.
– Cone Crusher Power: 90–315 kW | Output: 60–700 TPH
3. Vertical Shaft Impact Crusher (Sand Making Machine)
– Produces finely graded quartzite sand (0–5mm).
– Power: 110–400 kW | Output: 60–650 TPH
4. Vibrating Screen & Sand Washer
– Ensures precise grading and removes impurities.
| Equipment | Model Example | Input Size | Output Size | Capacity (TPH) | Power (kW) |
|——————–|—————|————|————-|—————-|————|
| Jaw Crusher | PE750×1060 | ≤630mm | ≤200mm | 80–220 | 110 |
| Cone Crusher | HPT300 | ≤240mm | ≤50mm | 100–350 | 250 |
| VSI Crusher | VSI1140 | ≤50mm | 0–5mm | 200–500 | 315 |
Q1: What is the hardness of quartzite?
A: Quartzite typically has a Mohs hardness of 7, requiring high-wear-resistant crushers.
Q2: Can quartzite sand replace natural sand?
A: Yes, its angular particles enhance concrete strength, making it ideal for high-grade construction.
