A crushing plant is a facility that processes raw materials (such as rocks, ertse, or recycled concrete) into smaller, usable aggregates. The capacity of a crushing plant refers to the maximum amount of material it can process per hour (or per day). Different capacity crushing plants are designed to meet various production needs, from small-scale operations to large industrial projects.

Types of Crushing Plants by Capacity
Crushing plants can be categorized based on their production capacity:

1. Small Capacity Crushing Plant (10–50 TPH)
- Suitable for small quarries, konstruksieterreine, or recycling operations.
- Common equipment:
- Small jaw crusher
- Impact crusher or cone crusher
- Vibrating screen
- Small belt conveyors

2. Medium Capacity Crushing Plant (50–300 TPH)
- Used in medium-sized mining or construction projects.
- Common equipment:
- Primêre kakebeenbreker + secondary cone/impact crusher
- Multiple vibrating screens for better grading
- Feeders and conveyors

3. Large Capacity Crushing Plant (300–1000+ TPH)
- Designed for large-scale mining, hoofweg konstruksie, or cement production.
- Common equipment:
- Large primary gyratory/jaw crusher + multiple secondary/tertiary crushers
- High-capacity screens and conveyors
- Automated control systems

Factors Affecting Crushing Plant Capacity
- Materiële hardheid & skuur (softer materials allow higher throughput).
- Feed size & required output size (finer products reduce capacity).
- Crusher type & konfigurasie (kakebeen, keël, impak, vsi).
- Screening efficiency (proper screening ensures smooth operation).

Choosing the Right Capacity
- For small contractors → 50–100 TPH plants.
- For aggregate producers → 200–500 TPH plants.
- For mining/quarrying → 500–1000+ TPH plants.
