Targeting Quarry Managers, Plant Superintendents, and Civil Engineering Contractors

1. ABERTURA ACIONADA POR PAINPOINT: The High Cost of Conventional Ballast Production

Produzindo consistente, specificationgrade railway ballast is a core yet costly operation. If you are managing a quarry supplying infrastructure projects, you recognize these persistent challenges:

Geração excessiva de multas: Até 25% of processed aggregate can fall below the required gradation for ballast, turning premium product into lowvalue quarry waste.
Tempo de inatividade não programado: Frequent liner changes in conventional crushers and clogging from moist feed halt your primary crushing circuit, custando milhares por hora em perda de produção.
Alta intensidade energética & Wear Costs: Traditional jawandcone setups for hard rock ballast consume significant power and require constant monitoring of wear parts, corroendo diretamente as margens de lucro.
Formato de produto inconsistente: Poor cubicity in the final product leads to reduced interlock and stability in the track bed, potentially affecting project acceptance and longterm performance.

Are you evaluating crushing solutions that can directly reduce waste fraction, control operational costs, and deliver a superior, inspecionar produto? The focus must shift to equipment engineered specifically for the demands of modern, ecofriendly quarry ballast production.

2. VISÃO GERAL DO PRODUTO: Advanced Tertiary/Quaternary Crushing Systems for Ballast

This product category encompasses highperformance vertical shaft impact (TODOS) crushers and advanced cone crushers configured as the final stage in a equipamento de britagem de lastro de pedreira circuit. Their purpose is to transform secondary crushed feed (normalmente 75 mm) into precisely shaped, lastro ferroviário compatível com especificações.

Fluxo de Trabalho Operacional:
1. Prescreened secondary feed is introduced into the crusher at a controlled rate.
2. Inside the chamber, rock is accelerated and subjected to intense rockonrock or rockonliner impact forces.
3. This process fractures particles along natural cleavage planes, selectively reducing oversized material while minimizing abrasive grinding.
4. The discharged product exhibits a consistent cubicle shape with reduced flakiness.
5. A closedcircuit setup with a screen recirculates oversize material for further reduction, garantindo 100% of output meets target gradation (por exemplo, 63mm31.5mm).

Escopo de aplicação: Ideal for processing hard abrasive rocks (granito, basalto) and moderately abrasive stone (calcário) into railway ballast, construction aggregates requiring high cubicity, and drainage layers.
Limitações: Not designed as a primary crusher for runofquarry material. Feed size must be properly controlled per model specifications to achieve optimal performance and longevity.
