100tph river stone crusher plant in Tacloban, Philippines

Here’s a detailed setup for your 100tph river stone crusher plant in Tacloban, Philippines, using PE-600×900 Jaw Crusher, PSGB0917 Symons Cone Crusher, and 3YK1548 Vibrating Screen, optimized for local conditions (typhoons, high moisture, and rounded river stones):

1. Equipment Configuration & Flow Design

Crushing Stages

1. Primary Crushing (Coarse):
   • PE-600×900 Jaw Crusher
     • Feed Size: ≤500mm (handles large, rounded river stones)
     • Output: 65-160mm (adjustable)
     • Capacity: 50-100tph
     • Power: 55-75kW
     • Advantage: Robust for abrasive silica in river stones.
2. Secondary Crushing (Fine):
   • PSGB0917 Symons Cone Crusher (Standard)
     • Feed Size: ≤150mm (from jaw crusher)
     • Output: 16-38mm (adjustable for concrete/road base)
     • Capacity: 45-91tph
     • Power: 75kW
     • Advantage: Reliable for high-moisture stones; produces well-shaped aggregates.
3. Screening & Grading:
   • 3YK1548 Vibrating Screen (3 Decks)
     • Screen Size: 1500×4800mm
     • Capacity: 100-150tph
     • Mesh Configuration:
       • Top: 40mm (oversize → cone crusher)
       • Middle: 20mm (for concrete)
       • Bottom: 5mm (sand substitute)

2. Tacloban-Specific Adaptations

Typhoon & Flood Resilience

• Elevated Foundations: Raise equipment 1m above flood-prone areas (Tacloban’s history of storm surges).
• Dewatering Screens: Remove excess moisture from river stones.
• Corrosion Protection: Stainless steel fasteners and epoxy-coated steel structures.

Material Challenges

• Rounded Stones: Symons cone’s interparticle crushing improves cubical shape vs. impact crushers.
• High Silica Content: Manganese steel wear parts in jaw/cone crushers.
• Organic Debris: Grizzly bars (50mm spacing) before jaw crusher to remove driftwood.

5. Key Operational Tips

1. Maintenance:
   • Daily: Check jaw crusher toggle plate tension.
   • Weekly: Lubricate Symons cone’s bushings (high humidity accelerates wear).
2. Dust Control: Water sprays at transfer points (comply with DENR standards).
3. Power Backup: 100kVA diesel generator for frequent Mindanao grid outages.

6. Cost-Saving Strategies

• Local Sourcing:
  • Buy crushed aggregates to Tacloban City Hall’s reconstruction projects.
  • Use Surigao-del-Norte manganese for wear parts.
• Labor: Train operators from TESDA’s heavy equipment program.

Why This Configuration Works

• PE-600×900 Jaw: Handles oversized, unprocessed river stones effectively.
• Symons Cone: Delivers consistent output despite variable moisture content.
• 3YK1548 Screen: Maximizes product separation in high-rainfall climates.
