Which Crusher Is Most Suitable for Granite Crushing?

Granite is a hard rock with a Mohs hardness of 6 to 7, so it needs highly wear-resistant and high-crushing-force equipment to break it down. Based on the properties of granite, Shibang Group has developed core machines including jaw crushers, cone crushers and impact sand making machines. These form a complete production process: primary crushing → secondary and fine crushing → shaping and sand making. The whole line delivers high efficiency, good finished product quality and cost performance, making it the top choice for granite crushing projects.

1. Primary Crushing Core: PEW European Jaw Crusher

The PEW European jaw crusher from Shibang is the first pick for primary granite crushing. It handles large granite raw materials with feed sizes from 0 to 930 mm, and its hourly output ranges from 12 to 650 tons.

It adopts a V-shaped crushing chamber for higher crushing efficiency. The integral cast steel structure and heavy eccentric shaft give it strong load capacity, with a pressure resistance up to 1500 MPa, perfectly suited for the high hardness of granite.

Fitted with a hydraulic cavity clearing system, it can quickly clear stuck materials when the machine stops, cutting downtime and ensuring steady continuous production. It acts as the first key equipment in the entire granite crushing line.

2. Secondary & Fine Crushing Main Equipment: HPT Multi-cylinder Hydraulic Cone Crusher + CS Spring Cone Crusher

After primary crushing, granite needs to be further processed into 10–30 mm particles. The two cone crusher models from Shibang have their own strengths to fit different working conditions.

HPT Multi-cylinder Hydraulic Cone Crusher

Feed size: 10–350 mm, hourly output: 50–1200 tons.

It features a fixed main shaft and rotating eccentric sleeve design for great load-bearing capacity. With the laminated crushing principle, materials break under mutual extrusion, producing cubical finished grains with little flaky material, ideal for producing high-standard aggregate. It supports intelligent hydraulic control, allowing remote adjustment of discharge size for easy operation.

CS Spring Cone Crusher

A classic cost-effective model, with feed size 0–334 mm and hourly output 27–1400 tons.

It comes in standard type for secondary crushing and short-head type for fine crushing. You can switch crushing chambers just by replacing the liner plates, realizing multi-purpose use of one machine.

The spring safety device protects the machine from damage caused by uncrushable materials, ensuring stable operation, perfect for small and medium-sized granite crushing projects.

3. Key Equipment for Shaping & Sand Making: VSI Impact Crusher

If you need to process granite into high-quality manufactured sand of 0–5 mm, the VSI5X/6X impact crusher from Shibang is the ideal core machine.

It works with two working modes: rock-on-rock and rock-on-iron. It accepts feed materials of 0–50 mm, with an hourly output of 100–583 tons, used for shaping and sand making of finely crushed granite materials.

The finished sand has round grain shape and reasonable gradation, fully meeting construction sand standards. It effectively solves the common problems of poor grain shape and high powder content in ordinary granite crushing.
