Successful Quartzite Crushing Solution In Philippines

Client Background

Our client is a leading construction and mining company based in the Philippines, specializing in high-quality sand and aggregate production. Due to increasing demand for silica sand used in glass manufacturing and construction, they sought a reliable 50 TPH quartzite crushing solution with high efficiency and low maintenance costs.

Quartzite Crushing Solution In Philippines

Project Overview

The client needed a complete crushing system to process siliceous quartzite, a highly abrasive material, into fine aggregates for industrial use. The key requirements included:

Production Capacity: 50 tons per hour
Final Product Size: 0-5mm, 5-10mm, and 10-20mm aggregates
Equipment Durability: Resistance to wear due to quartzite hardness

Challenges

High Abrasiveness: Quartzite is tough, increasing wear on crusher parts.
Efficient Production: Needed a stable 50 TPH output with minimal downtime.
Multiple Product Sizes: Required precise gradation for different industrial applications.

Solution

Liming Heavy Industry designed a three-stage crushing system for optimal efficiency and durability:

1. Primary Crushing – PE Series Jaw Crusher (PE500×750)

Function: Coarse crushing of large quartzite rocks (≤425mm input).
Advantages: High crushing ratio, robust structure, and easy maintenance.

2. Secondary Crushing – CI5X Impact Crusher (CI5X1315)

Function: Further crushing quartzite into smaller sizes (≤50mm).
Advantages: Strong blow bar resistance, hydraulic adjustment, and high throughput.

3. Fine Crushing & Sand Making – VSI6X Sand Making Machine (VSI6X1150)

Function: Produces high-quality cubic-shaped sand (0-5mm).
Advantages: Low wear costs, high sand yield, and adjustable gradation.

Supporting Equipment

Vibrating Feeder (ZSW380×96) – Ensures smooth material feeding.
Vibrating Screen (3YK2160) – Separates final products into different sizes.
Belt Conveyors – Efficient material transport between machines.

Technical Highlights

Wear-Resistant Materials: Used high-chrome alloy parts to extend service life.
Automated Control: PLC system for real-time monitoring and adjustments.
Environmental Compliance: Equipped with dust suppression to meet local regulations.

Project Results

Production Capacity: Consistently reached 50-55 TPH, exceeding expectations.
Final Product Quality: High-purity silica sand with excellent gradation.
Operating Costs: Reduced by 30% due to lower wear rates and energy efficiency.
