200 TPH Copper Ore Crushing Project in Botswana

Customer Profile

Location: Botswana
Industry: Mining & Mineral Processing
Material: Copper Ore
Required Capacity: 200 Tons Per Hour (TPH)

The client, a leading mining company in Botswana, needed a high-capacity, portable crushing solution to process copper ore efficiently with minimal downtime. The key challenges included remote site conditions and the need for a flexible, high-performance crushing plant.

Project Overview

The project required a mobile crushing plant capable of:

• Processing copper ore (hard and abrasive material)
• Achieving 200 TPH output
• Ensuring low maintenance & high availability
• Suitable for remote mining locations in Botswana

Liming Heavy Industry provided a customized NK Series Mobile Crushing Station with optimal jaw crusher and cone crusher integration to ensure seamless operation.

Challenges

1. Hard & Abrasive Material: Copper ore requires robust crushing equipment to withstand wear.
2. Remote Location: The site needed a self-sufficient mobile plant with easy maintenance.
3. High Capacity Requirement: The plant had to consistently meet 200 TPH production.
4. Mobility & Quick Setup: Rapid deployment and minimal infrastructure were essential.

Solution: NK Series Mobile Crushing Station

To meet these challenges, Liming Heavy Industry configured an NK200 Mobile Crushing Plant with the following setup:

1. Primary Crushing – Jaw Crusher (PEW1100)

• Model: PEW1100 European Jaw Crusher
• Function: Primary crushing of large copper ore blocks (≤ 750mm)
• Advantages:
  • Hydraulic adjustment for discharge size
  • High wear resistance for abrasive materials
  • Robust structure for heavy-duty crushing

2. Secondary Crushing – Cone Crusher (HPT500)

• Model: HPT500 Multi-Cylinder Hydraulic Cone Crusher
• Function: Fine crushing to achieve 20-50mm output (suitable for further processing)
• Advantages:
  • High crushing efficiency & energy-saving design
  • Hydraulic overload protection system
  • Adjustable discharge size for copper ore gradation

3. Screening & Conveying System

• Model: S5X Vibrating Screen + Belt Conveyors
• Function: Accurate screening (0-6mm, 6-20mm, 20-50mm) and material handling
• Advantages:
  • Multi-layer screening for high efficiency
  • Durable rubber belts for long-distance transport

4. Power & Mobility

• Diesel-electric hybrid system: Reduces fuel consumption and maintenance costs.
• Track-mounted design: Enables quick relocation in mining areas.

Technical Highlights

• Smart Control System: Remote monitoring & PLC automation reduce manual intervention.
• Low Operating Costs: Energy-efficient crushers and hybrid power system.
• Efficient Dust Suppression: Minimizes environmental impact.
• Quick Setup Time: The plant can be operational within 2-3 hours.

Project Results

• Production Capacity Achieved: 200+ TPH consistently.
• Final Product Sizes: 0-6mm (fines), 6-20mm, 20-50mm (for further beneficiation).
• Operational Efficiency: Reduced downtime due to wear-resistant components.
• Client ROI: High return on investment due to low operational costs.
