A skid-mounted stone crushing plant is a modular, pre-assembled crushing and screening system integrated onto a rigid steel chassis (skid), designed for rapid deployment and flexible operation. Unlike traditional fixed plants requiring concrete foundations or mobile units with self-propelled tracks, skid-mounted systems balance mobility and stability: they can be transported via trucks and installed on flat ground with minimal site preparation—often no concrete required. Baichy’s 100tph model combines a high-efficiency jaw crusher (primary crushing) and a multi-layer vibrating screen (classification), forming a compact closed-loop system that processes raw stone into graded aggregates directly on-site.

Advantages and Disadvantages

Choosing the right plant type depends on your specific project needs. Here is how the skid-mounted design stacks up:

● Advantages

    ○ Rapid Installation: Since the modules are pre-assembled at the Baichy factory, on-site installation time is drastically reduced. You can often go from delivery to commissioning in under a week.
    ○ No Concrete Foundation Required: The steel skid distributes the machine's vibration and weight. This saves massive costs on concrete and civil engineering, making it eco-friendly and cheaper to set up.
    ○ Flexibility & Mobility: While not self-driving like a crawler plant, it is easily movable. When a project finishes, the entire module can be hoisted onto a truck and moved to the next site, preserving your asset value.
    ○ Cost-Effective: It costs significantly less than fully mobile track-mounted plants while offering similar "plug-and-play" convenience.

 

  Disadvantages

    ○ Relocation Effort: It requires a crane and flatbed truck to move, unlike a track-mounted crusher which can drive itself short distances.
    ○ Capacity Limits: While perfect for 100-300tph, skid-mounted designs become less practical for massive operations (e.g., >1000tph) where stationary plants are superior.

 

Applications of the Baichy 100tph Plant

The Baichy 100tph Skid-Mounted Plant equipped with a primary Jaw Crusher and Vibrating Screen is versatile. It is engineered for:
●  Road & Bridge Construction: Producing base stone and aggregates directly at the construction site to reduce material transport costs.
●  Small to Medium Quarries: Ideal for investors who want to start production quickly without waiting months for permit approvals related to permanent concrete structures.
●  Remote Mining Areas: Perfect for gold, copper, or iron ore mines located in difficult terrains where pouring concrete is logistically challenging.
●  Construction Waste Recycling: Crushing concrete and demolition waste on-site for immediate reuse.

 

Success Story: River Stone Crushing Plant in Southeast Asia

To illustrate the capability of this plant, let’s look at a recent deployment of Baichy's technology.

  Project Background:

A road infrastructure client in Southeast Asia needed to process local river stone (mostly granite and basalt) to produce aggregate for a new highway project. The timeline was tight, and the remote location made concrete batching for foundations too expensive and slow.

 

  The Solution: 

They selected the Baichy Modular Skid-Mounted Stone Crushing & Screening Plant (100tph).

 

  Configuration:

    ○ Feeder: ZSW Series Vibrating Feeder for smooth, uniform feeding.
    ○ Primary Crusher: Baichy PE Series Jaw Crusher (optimized for hard rock).
    ○ Screening: YK Circular Vibrating Screen (3-deck) to separate 0-5mm, 5-10mm, and 10-20mm aggregates.
    ○ Chassis: Unified high-strength steel skid frame.

 

  The Result:

The plant was shipped in standard containers and assembled in just 5 days. The client successfully processed over 800 tons of river stone per day, meeting the strict deadline for the highway base material. The skid-mounted design allowed them to easily relocate the plant 50km down the road once the first section was completed—something a stationary plant could never offer.

Here are 4 frequently asked questions about Modular Skid-Mounted Stone Crushing Plants:

1. Does this plant require a concrete foundation?

A: No. The plant is built on a robust steel skid frame that distributes weight evenly. It only requires a flat, compacted gravel or soil surface, eliminating the need for expensive and time-consuming concrete civil work.

 

2. How long does installation take?

A: Because the main components (crusher, screen, feeder) are pre-assembled and wired at the factory, on-site installation is rapid. Typically, the plant can be installed and commissioned within 3 to 7 days.

 

3. Is it difficult to relocate the plant?

A: Not at all. Unlike stationary plants, the skid-mounted modules can be easily lifted by a crane onto a flatbed truck. This makes moving between different mining sites or construction zones quick and cost-effective.

 

4. Can I customize the equipment configuration?

A: Yes. While the standard 100tph setup often includes a Jaw Crusher and Vibrating Screen, the modular design allows you to integrate Cone Crushers or Impact Crushers depending on whether you are processing hard rock or soft limestone.
