What equipment is required for a gravel production line
Gravel crushers are commonly used equipment in gravel processing plants, capable of processing various materials such as granite, basalt, limestone, pebbles, and coal gangue. Typically, multiple pieces of equipment need to be used in combination. What equipment is required for a gravel production line?
Crushing large rocks into small gravel typically involves two stages: primary crushing using a jaw crusher, followed by secondary/tertiary crushing using a cone crusher or impact crusher. Secondary/tertiary crushers can directly produce gravel in various specifications like 12mm, 13mm, 24mm, etc. Below are detailed characteristics and parameters of stone crushing machinery.
1. Primary Crushing Equipment - Jaw Crusher
Capacity: 1-2200 t/h
Feed Size: ≤1500 mm
Discharge Size: 10-350 mm
Responsible for primary stone crushing. Features large feed size and high capacity. Utilizes a “V”-shaped crushing chamber with dual jaw plates for compression crushing. Offers strong crushing capability and a deep crushing chamber where material begins breaking near the top of the feed inlet. Achieves high crushing ratios with minimal clogging. Adjustable discharge opening. Simple structure and easy operation.
2. Medium & Fine Crushing Equipment - Cone Crusher / Impact Crusher
Cone Crusher: Capacity 12-2181 t/h, Feed Size ≤560 mm, Discharge Size 6-54 mm
Impact Crusher: Capacity 30-800 t/h, Feed Size ≤800 mm
Both are medium-fine crushing equipment. The cone crusher employs a layer compression crushing mechanism with strong crushing force, suitable for processing high-hardness materials like granite, basalt, and quartzite. It relies on a hydraulic system for functions such as cavity clearance, iron protection, and discharge opening adjustment, offering high levels of automation. Impact crushers operate on an impact crushing principle, suitable for processing medium-to-low hardness materials like limestone, dolomite, coal gangue, and construction waste. They produce well-shaped, cubic-like aggregates with uniform size and excellent quality.
