The crusher plant working mainly include several steps, such as feeding, crushing, screening, convenying, etc. You can check the process.
Step 1: Feeding the Raw Materials
The process begins with the feeding of raw materials into the crusherplant. Large rocks, stones, or other materials are loaded into a hopper using excavators or loaders. The hopper funnels these materials into the primary crusher.
Step 2: Primary Crushing
In the primary crushing stage, the large materials are reduced to smaller, manageable sizes. The primary crusher, usually a jaw crusher machine or gyratory crusher, applies mechanical pressure to break down the raw materials. This initial crushing process reduces the size of the materials to make them suitable for further processing.
Step 3: Screening and Sorting
After primary crushing, the materials are transported to a vibrating screen. The screen separates the crushed materials based on size. Oversized materials are returned to the primary crusher for further reduction, while appropriately sized materials move on to the next stage.
Step 4: Secondary Crushing
The secondary crushing stage further reduces the size of the materials. Cone crushers or impact crushers are typically used in this stage. These crushers refine the materials into finer aggregates, ensuring they meet specific size requirements for different construction applications.
Step 5: Tertiary Crushing (If Necessary)
In some cases, a tertiary crushing stage is required to achieve the desired material size and shape. Tertiary crushers, such as vertical shaft impact crushers(VSI crushers), finely crush the materials, enhancing their quality and uniformity.
Step 6: Conveying and Storing
Once the materials have undergone the necessary crushing stages, they are conveyed to storage areas or directly to the project site. Conveyor belts or trucks transport the final aggregates, ensuring they are readily available for use in construction projects.
From feeding raw materials to delivering final aggregates, each stage plays a critical role in producing high-quality construction materials. You can watch the following crusher plant video to clearly understand the process.
