What equipment is used to crush granite?

Due to granite’s high hardness and strong abrasiveness, crushing equipment must have excellent pressure resistance, wear resistance and stability. With mature crushing technology and special machines, SBM provides complete solutions covering primary crushing – secondary crushing – tertiary crushing – sand making, suitable for all kinds of projects from large mines to small and medium-sized sites.

1. Primary Crushing: C6X Series Jaw Crusher
As the first stage in granite crushing, the C6X jaw crusher is specially designed for large, hard materials.
Max feed size: 1280 mm
Capacity: 160–1510 tons per hour
Key advantages:Heavy-duty cast steel frame and highly wear-resistant jaw plates, with large crushing stroke and high reduction ratio for efficient crushing of raw granite. Hydraulic discharge adjustment for easy operation. Low power consumption and high reliability make it the top primary crusher for large production lines.
2. Secondary & Tertiary Crushing: HPT / HST Series Cone Crushers
For granite secondary and fine crushing, SBM recommends the HPT multi-cylinder hydraulic cone crusher and HST single-cylinder hydraulic cone crusher, both using inter-particle crushing for excellent cubical product shape with few flaky particles.
HPT Multi-cylinder Cone CrusherCapacity: 45–1200 tphPLC intelligent control, with hydraulic tramp release and over-iron protection.Quickly interchangeable crushing chambers for both secondary and fine crushing, ideal for large-scale, high-quality aggregate production.
HST Single-cylinder Cone CrusherCompact structure and easy maintenance, suitable for small to medium production lines or mobile crushing plants. Also performs well with highly abrasive materials like granite.
3. Sand Making & Shaping: VSI6X Series Vertical Shaft Impact Crusher
The VSI6X VSI crusher is the core machine for producing high-quality manufactured sand from granite.
