Targeted Solutions for Quarry Sites in Lagos: Overcoming Local Challenges with Robust Equipment

Operating a quarry site in Lagos presents a unique set of challenges that directly impact your bottom line. Are you contending with abrasive laterite and granite that rapidly wear down standard machinery components? Is unpredictable grid power forcing excessive reliance on diesel generators, crippling your costpertonne? Are you losing valuable production days to equipment downtime while waiting for specialized technical support or replacement parts? The combination of demanding materials, factores ambientales, and logistical constraints requires equipment engineered not just for performance, but for resilience and operational continuity in this specific context.

Descripción general del producto: HeavyDuty Primary Jaw Crushers for Lagos Quarry Operations

This product line comprises stationary and mobile primary jaw crushers specifically configured for the highvolume, highabrasion processing of Lagos's predominant quarry materials, incluyendo granito, caliza, and laterite. The operational workflow is designed for simplicity and uptime: 1) Direct feed from loader into a vibratory grizzly feeder to bypass fines; 2) Consistent crushing in a deep crushing chamber; 3) Adjustment of closedside setting (CSS) via hydraulic toggle for precise product sizing; 4) Discharge onto a main conveyor for stockpiling or secondary crushing. These units are engineered as primary reduction workhorses and are not intended as tertiary crushers for fine sand production.

Escenarios de aplicación

LargeScale Granite Aggregate Production Challenge: A major quarry near Lekki faced crippling downtime every six months replacing monolithic jaw plates on their primary crusher—a threeday process halting the entire plant. Unplanned bearing failures from dust ingress added further stoppages.

Solución: Implementation of our heavyduty jaw crusher with modular jaw dies and advanced sealing.

Resultados: Jaw plate change time reduced to one shift (<10 horas). Annual bearingrelated failures eliminated. La disponibilidad de la planta aumentó de ~82 % a más 91%, yielding an estimated additional ₦180 million in annual output value.

laterita & Hardpan Processing Challenge: An earthworks contractor needed reliable primary reduction of highly abrasive laterite blocks at multiple temporary sites around Epe, requiring quick setup and minimal maintenance infrastructure.

Solución: Deployment of a mobile trackmounted version of our jaw crusher with dualpower point compatibility.

Resultados: Unit relocated between three sites within two weeks each. Operated consistently on generator power without fault. Wear part life exceeded projections by 25%, reducing project material costs by an estimated ₦45 million.
