Mobile Crushing Plant

Shanghe Mobile Crushing Plant

A mobile crushing plant is a portable system, typically wheeled or tracked, which consolidates the core functions of material processing—feeding, crushing, screening, and conveying—into a single, movable entity. The principal benefit of this design is its ability to be relocated directly to the work site. This mobility substantially lowers costs associated with transporting raw materials and offers greater operational flexibility and efficiency than stationary crushing installations.

How They Work

The crushing and screening process follows a systematic sequence:

• Feeding: Materials are loaded into a vibrating feeder, which controls the feed rate to the primary crusher.
• Primary Crushing: The initial breakdown of large material occurs here.
• Conveying & Further Crushing: Conveyor belts move the material to secondary or tertiary crushers for additional refinement.
• Screening & Recirculation: Vibrating screens sort the material by size; oversized pieces are sent back to the crushers (closed-loop system).
• Final Product: Correctly sized material is discharged as the final product via a conveyor.

Key Components

1. Material Handling System:
   ◦ Feeder/Hopper: Receives raw material and regulates its flow into the crusher.
   ◦ Conveyor Belts: Transport material between crushing stages and to the final stockpile.

2. Processing Core:
◦ Crushing Unit: The heart of the plant, often a jaw, cone, or impact crusher, selected based on material hardness and desired product size.
◦ Vibrating Screen: Sorts crushed material into specified size grades.

3. Support & Control Systems:
◦ Power System: Provides energy, typically via an onboard diesel engine or an external electrical connection.
◦ Control Panel: Enables operators to monitor and control the entire process, frequently with remote operation capabilities.
◦ Mobile Chassis: The wheeled or tracked undercarriage that provides structural integrity and mobility.

Types of Mobile Crushing Plant

• Track-Mounted (Crawler)
  • Mobility: Self-propelled with hydraulic tracks.
  • Terrain: Excellent for rough, steep, and unstable ground.
  • Applications: Ideal for large-scale mining, quarries, and rugged construction sites.
• Wheel-Mounted (Portable)
  • Mobility: Towed by a truck or prime mover.
  • Terrain: Requires relatively flat and stable ground.
  • Applications: Perfect for multi-site urban construction, road projects, and recycled aggregate processing.

Application

Mobile crushing plants are versatile solutions critical to several key industries:

• Quarrying & Mining: Processing hard rock such as granite, basalt, and iron ore into aggregates and minerals.
• Construction & Infrastructure: Supplying essential base materials for roads, railways, bridges, and large-scale building projects.
• Recycling: Transforming construction and demolition (C&D) waste, concrete, and asphalt into high-quality, reusable aggregates.

Advantages

• Unmatched Mobility: Rapid deployment and relocation directly to the material source, minimizing transit time between and within sites.
• Significant Cost Reduction: Drastically lowers expenses by eliminating the need for material transport to a fixed location and reducing on-site labor requirements.
• Operational Flexibility: The system can be configured with different crushers and screens to meet the specific needs of diverse projects and material types.
• Rapid Commissioning: Can be operational in hours, not weeks, avoiding the lengthy setup and construction time of a stationary plant.
