For small-scale copper mining operations, efficient crushing and sand-making equipment is essential to maximize productivity. A compact crushing and screening line typically includes a jaw crusher, cone crusher, vibrating screen, and sand maker, tailored for processing copper ore into high-quality aggregates or sand for construction.
1. Jaw Crusher (Primary Crushing)
– Model: PE-250×400
– Feed Size: 210mm
– Capacity: 5–20 t/h
– Power: 15 kW
2. Cone Crusher (Secondary Crushing)
– Model: PYB600
– Max Feed Size: 65mm
– Capacity: 12–25 t/h
– Power: 30 kW
3. Sand Maker (Fine Crushing)
– Model: VSI-7611
– Output Size: 0–5mm (adjustable)
– Capacity: 30–50 t/h
Raw copper ore → Jaw crusher (coarse crushing) → Cone crusher (intermediate crushing) → Vibrating screen (classification) → Sand maker (fine crushing for manufactured sand). Oversized materials are recycled back to the cone crusher.
Q1: Can this line process other ores besides copper?
A1: Yes, it suits gold, iron, or limestone with minor adjustments.
Q2: What’s the lifespan of wear parts?
A2: Jaw plates last ~6 months; cone liners ~4 months under normal use.
A Zambian client deployed this setup for a 50t/h copper tailings reprocessing project. The final output achieved 0–5mm sand with <3% needle content, meeting ASTM C33 standards for concrete use.
