A portable crushing plant is a mobile, self-contained system that integrates crushing and screening equipment. Unlike fixed plants, it is mounted on wheels or tracks for easy transportation. These plants crush materials like rocks, concrete, asphalt, or mining waste to produce aggregates (sand, gravel) or recycled materials.
How Does It Work?
Transport & Setup: The plant is delivered to the site via truck or trailer. Wheeled/tracked chassis enables rapid deployment.
Feeding: Material is loaded into the feeder using an excavator or loader.
Crushing: Jaw crushers, impact crushers, or cone crushers reduce the material to the desired size.
Screening: Vibrating screens sort the crushed material by size (e.g., 0-5 mm sand, 5-20 mm gravel).
Conveyors: Belts transport the processed material to stockpiles or directly to the point of use.
Power Source: Operates via a diesel engine or external electricity.
Applications
Site Flexibility: Easily relocated between project sites.
Aggregate Production: Supplies materials for roads, dams, or concrete plants.
Waste Recycling: Converts demolition waste (concrete, bricks) into reusable resources.
Quarry & Mining: Crushes large rocks into transportable sizes.
Cost Efficiency: Eliminates material transportation costs.
Technical Features
Capacity: 100-500 tons per hour (varies by model and configuration).
Input Size: Processes materials up to 600 mm in diameter.
Output Size: Adjustable between 0-50 mm.
Mobility: Wheeled, tracked, or towable chassis options.
Power: Diesel engine (standalone operation) or electric system.
