China Slag Crusher Plant Procurement
1. PAINPOINT DRIVEN OPENING
Managing slag is a persistent operational bottleneck with tangible costs. Are you facing these challenges?
High Disposal Costs & Liability: Landfill fees for untreated slag are escalating, and improper storage creates environmental liability.
Inefficient Material Handling: Oversized, irregular slag chunks cause feeder blockages, conveyor damage, and significant downtime for manual breaking or equipment clearing.
Lost Revenue Streams: Valuable metallic content remains trapped within the slag, and inconsistent particle size limits profitable resale as aggregate or industrial feedstock.
Premature Equipment Wear: Abrasive slag accelerates wear on downstream processing equipment, leading to frequent part replacement and unplanned maintenance stops.
Space Constraints & Safety Hazards: Accumulating stockpiles consume valuable plant space, while unstable piles and dust generation pose safety risks.
The core question is: how do you transform this problematic byproduct from a cost center into a controlled, revenuegenerating process? The answer lies in a purposeengineered China slag crusher plant.
2. PRODUCT OVERVIEW
A China slag crusher plant is a stationary or semimobile crushing circuit specifically configured for the size reduction and liberation of materials like blast furnace slag, steel slag, and nonferrous smelter slag. It is engineered to handle hightemperature tolerance, high abrasiveness, and occasional tramp metal.
Operational Workflow:
1. Primary Crushing/Jaw Crushing: Large slag feed (up to 1m+) is reduced to a manageable size (approx. 150250mm) using a robust jaw crusher or hydraulic impact hammer.
2. Magnetic Separation (Critical Stage): A suspended selfcleaning magnet or magnetic drum over a conveyor removes liberated ferrous metals for recovery and sale.
3. Secondary/Tertiary Crushing: Cone crushers or impact crushers further reduce the material to the target product size (e.g., 040mm), ensuring complete liberation of remaining metallics.
4. Screening & Sorting: Vibrating screens classify the crushed material into specified fractions for different market applications (e.g., road base, cement additive).
5. Final Metal Recovery: A secondstage magnetic separator captures any remaining fine ferrous content.
Application Scope & Limitations:
Scope: Ideal for integrated steel mills, foundries, metal smelting plants, and dedicated slag processing yards. Effective on aircooled blast furnace (BF) slag and basic oxygen furnace (BOF) steel slag.
Limitations: Not suitable for processing molten slag without specialized cooling systems. Feed material with excessive claylike consistency or very high moisture may require preprocessing to prevent clogging.

6. APPLICATION SCENARIOS
Integrated Steel Mill Slag Yard Challenge:
Specific Problem:
A major mill faced rising landfill costs for steel slag stockpiles exceeding ten years. The hardened slabs contained recoverable metal but were too dense for older equipment.
Solution:
Implementation of a turnkey China slag crusher plant featuring a primary hydraulic jaw crusher for slab breaking and two stages of magnetic separation.

8.FAQ
Q:Can your China slag crusher plant integrate with our existing conveyors和screening system?
A:Yes。Engineering drawings can be provided early in the process。Our plants are designed as modular systems。Inlet和outlet points,as well as control signals,can be interfaced with your current infrastructure。
Q:What is the expected operational impact on our maintenance team?
A:Your team will require training on new PLC controls和specialized wear part更换 procedures。The centralized lubrication和modular liner design aim to simplify routine tasks。Field data shows maintenance hours per ton processed typically decrease after the initial learning period。
Q:How do you ensure consistent quality across different production batches?
A:We employ standardized design platforms和source key components(bearings,motors,crusher castings)from certified Tier1 suppliers。Every plant undergoes fullload factory acceptance testing(FAT)with customerwitnessed performance verification before shipment。
Q:What commercial terms are standard?
A:Standard terms are FOB Chinese port或CIF destination port。Payment commonly involves an advance payment against proforma invoice,a payment against shipping documents,and retention upon successful commissioning。
Q:What does implementation typically involve on our site?
A:It requires prepared foundations(plans supplied),adequate utility connections(power,water),and crane access。Our scope includes supervision of mechanical erection,electrical connection指导,and commissioning。Total onsite time varies from X到Y weeks depending on scale。
Q:How is tramp metal(e.g., bucket teeth)handled?
A:The primary jaw crushers in our configuration include hydraulic overload protection that allows uncrushable objects to pass without catastrophic failure。These are then removed manually at the first magnetic separation point。
Q:What kind of output particle shape can be expected?
A:Using our recommended secondary cone crusher configuration produces more cubical product ideal for aggregate markets。An impact crusher secondary stage yields a slightly more fractured shape suitable as railway ballast。This choice depends on your target product specification
