How should a limestone aggregate production line with an hourly output of 650 tonnes be configured

Limestone possesses a Mohs hardness of 3 and exhibits brittle properties. Its primary constituent is calcium carbonate. Lime and limestone serve as extensively utilised raw materials in construction and industrial applications. As a vital component within the cement manufacturing and building materials sectors, limestone plays an indispensable role, capable of being directly processed into aggregate or calcined into quicklime.

After crushing to particles under 30mm, its market value increases significantly, with diverse applications:

1. Serves as a primary raw material for glass, rubber, and paint production, commanding broad market demand and high prices;

2. Meets all cement specifications for building construction and chemical industries;

3. When processed as slaked lime, it forms lime slurry, lime putty, and lime mortar after mixing, offering substantial economic value.

Practical Case Study

Aggregate Production System: 650t/h limestone crushing production line configuration. This system features rational process design and high production efficiency, capable of simultaneously producing multiple finished aggregates and sand particles required for construction. Based on the process layout and site conditions, our company designed and supplied three standard modular electrical control rooms, enabling centralised and automatic interlocking control of all system equipment.

Processed Material: Limestone

Finished Product Grades: 0-5mm, 5-20mm, 20-40mm, 40-80mm, 80-120mm.

Primary Equipment Configuration: 2 feeders, 2 jaw crushers, 2 impact crushers, 4 sand makers, 3 heavy-duty vibrating screens, 4 YK2460 vibrating screens, 4 linear screens, 2 dewatering screens, 3 sand washers, 3 modular electrical control rooms, etc.

Process characteristics: Simple operation, high crushing ratio across system equipment, high production efficiency, substantial finished product output, high sand yield, uniform particle size distribution, and excellent particle shape. Meets diverse aggregate requirements across multiple sectors of the construction industry.
