Stationary
crushing plants are permanently located in one site, often some distance
from the quarry or mine work face. They are provided with the raw
materials through off highway haulers. These crushing plants are
effective and has many usage. However it has one disadvantage that it
has to incur the cost of the haulage which is absent in mobile crushing
plants.
Mechanical Operations
The basic components of the stationary construction plants are same as
the mobile construction plants. The basic components of the stationary
crushing plants are feed bin, apron feeder, screen, single toggle jaw
crusher and discharge belt conveyor jaw or impactor crusher, power unit,
vibrating grizzly feeder, feed hopper, etc. All parts are designed for
hardest conditions and most abrasive material. Plant is either powered
by diesel engine or by an electric motors. Conveyor is used to pull
desired materials from the crushed materials.
Applications
The stationary crushing plants despite some limitations are applied in
various fields like :
- Crushing of various minerals like coals limestones and other
ferrous and non ferrous materials
- Recycling and reprocessing of building materials for
constructions
- Recycling and crushing for the road construction,
- Crushing and reprocessing materials to be applied in pavement or
for constructing paths etc.
