Quarries and aggregates

Graded aggregate, stone dust, riprap and manufactured sand for concrete, asphalt and road base. The Leimeng line runs from the primary jaw crusher to the sand washer.

A quarry sells grading: 0 to 5, 5 to 12, 12 to 25 and 25 to 50 mm aggregate, stone dust, riprap and, increasingly, manufactured sand. The plant layout exists to deliver those fractions with cubic shape and a stable curve at the lowest cost per tonne.

Leimeng supplies the whole line: grizzly feeder, primary jaw crusher, cone or impact crusher on the secondary, VSI on the tertiary for shape and sand, inclined screens in closed circuit and, when the market asks for it, washing and fines recovery.

For quarries between 30 and 300 tonnes per hour, track-mounted and skid-mounted sets shorten start-up. Above that, a stationary plant on foundations delivers the lowest operating cost.

Selection criteria

What defines the layout

Hardness and abrasivenessGranite and basalt call for jaw and cone crushers; limestone accepts impact crushing on primary and secondary with lower investment.
Product curveThe cone's CSS and the VSI rotor speed set the split between coarse aggregate, fine aggregate and sand.
Cubic shapeConcrete and asphalt require cubic particles; the VSI on the tertiary corrects the flakiness of the cone product.
Plant formatA long-life deposit and high capacity favour a stationary plant; construction sites and multiple faces favour track-mounted or skid units.

Pre-selection

Size for quarries and aggregates

Material already selected. Adjust the capacity and the stage.

t/h
Expected product at this stage Crusher-run and riprap Boulders reduced to 175 to 300 mm to feed the secondary.

Line complements

Indicative pre-selection from the tables published by Leimeng. Final sizing considers work index, moisture, feed size, product curve and utilisation factor. An application engineer validates the layout before the proposal.
