Mobile crushing plants—mounted on wheels or crawler tracks—redefine on-site material processing by eliminating the limitations of fixed crushing stations. Designed to operate as portable, efficient crushing and screening complexes, they excel at processing hard rocks, minerals, and recyclables even in harsh environments, with a production capacity ranging from 10 to 650 tons per hour (TPH). Unlike stationary mining crushers, their mobility slashes material transportation costs, boosts operational efficiency, and makes them particularly ideal for remote or temporary job sites.
Wide-Ranging Applications of Mobile Crushing Plants
Mobile crushing plants are versatile workhorses, supporting material processing and waste recycling across key industries:
1. Rock Crushing
Handles a spectrum of hard and soft rocks for aggregate production, including:
Hard rocks: Granite, basalt, gabbro, river pebbles, diabase, quartz
Medium/soft rocks: Limestone, dolomite, silica sand, talc, bluestone
2. Mining Operations
Facilitates on-site crushing of various ores to streamline extraction and processing, such as:
Energy minerals: Coal
Metal ores: Gold ore, iron ore, copper ore, manganese ore, lithium ore, lead-zinc ore
3. Solid Waste Recycling
Transforms waste materials into reusable resources, reducing landfill reliance:
Construction & demolition waste: Concrete debris, building rubble, demolition scraps
Industrial waste: Slag, tailings (mine waste), recycled aggregates
4. Infrastructure Projects
Supports critical infrastructure development with on-demand aggregate supply:
Road construction, railway expansion, airport terminal construction
Aggregate production for concrete, asphalt, and building materials
Core Advantages of Rich Machinery Mobile Crushing Plants
Compared to traditional stationary mining crushing stations, our mobile crushing plants deliver distinct competitive edges:
1. Exceptional Mobility
Relocate to new job sites anytime, adapting to dynamic project needs (e.g., moving from one mine zone to another or between construction lots).
Easy transportation via roads (no disassembly required for short distances) and quick on-site setup—minimizing downtime between projects.
2. Integrated, Compact Design
Combines crushing, sand-making, screening, and conveying functions in a single unit—eliminating the need for separate, scattered equipment.
Compact structure saves on-site space, making it suitable for both large mines and narrow urban construction areas.
3. Flexible Configuration Options
Customize crusher and screen combinations based on production goals (primary, secondary, or tertiary crushing) and material properties (hardness, particle size).
Switch between setups quickly to handle different materials (e.g., from hard granite to soft limestone) without major overhauls.
4. Significant Cost Savings
Process materials directly on-site: Reduces transportation costs for raw materials (no need to haul uncrushed rocks to distant fixed plants) by 40–60%.
Wireless remote control and quick assembly/disassembly: Cut labor requirements and maintenance time, lowering operational costs long-term.
Recommended Configurations for Mobile Crushing Plants
To optimize performance, select configurations based on material characteristics (hardness, moisture, feed size, desired output size), capacity needs, energy efficiency, budget, and on-site space. Typical capacities range from 40–50 TPH (small-scale) to over 350 TPH (large-scale); small crushing operations often use one unit, while large facilities require multiple plants.
Below are our most effective configurations for common scenarios:
1. Jaw Crusher + Cone Crusher
Best For: Hard rock processing (e.g., granite, basalt, river pebbles, diabase, iron ore).
Workflow: The jaw crusher handles primary crushing (reducing large rocks to manageable sizes), while the cone crusher performs secondary crushing (producing uniform, fine particles ideal for high-grade aggregates).
2. Jaw Crusher + Impact Crusher
Best For: Soft-to-medium rock processing (e.g., limestone, dolomite, gypsum, bluestone, coal gangue, calcium carbonate).
Advantage: The impact crusher delivers excellent particle shape—critical for applications like decorative aggregates or high-quality concrete.
3. Hammer Crusher + Sand-Making Machine
Best For: Brittle material processing (e.g., coal, limestone, slag) and high-quality fine manufactured sand production.
Outcome: Produces consistent, well-graded sand that meets construction standards for concrete and asphalt.
4. Jaw Crusher/Impact Crusher + Vibrating Screen
Best For: Rock crushing and screening to produce multiple aggregate/sand sizes (e.g., 0–5mm sand, 5–10mm small aggregates, 10–20mm medium aggregates).
Benefit: The vibrating screen separates crushed materials by particle size in one pass, eliminating the need for additional screening equipment.
Mobile crushing plants are revolutionizing material processing in mining, construction, and waste recycling by combining mobility, efficiency, and flexibility. Whether for remote mine sites, urban construction projects, or waste recycling yards, our customizable solutions are engineered to meet your specific needs—delivering reliable performance and maximum return on investment.
