Granite Crushing & Screening Plant
Granite is an igneous natural stone formed as molten material cools and solidifies below the Earth's surface. Its mineral composition and abrasiveness make equipment selection important in crushing applications.
Granite Aggregate Applications
Crushed and screened granite can be used in construction, road works, concrete production and other aggregate applications. Product grading should be determined according to the applicable project specification rather than a universal particle-size rule.
Granite aggregate may be used in base and fill applications, concrete mixes, paving, road construction and selected precast products where the required aggregate specification is met.
Crusher Types Used for Granite
Depending on feed size, abrasiveness, required reduction ratio and final product, granite crushing circuits may use:
- Gyratory crushers
- Cone crushers
- Hammer crushers in suitable applications
- Jaw crushers
- Impact crushers where material and wear conditions permit
- Cone and VSI crusher combinations for secondary/tertiary shaping
The correct plant configuration must be determined from material testing and project requirements.
