Jaw Crusher And Single Deck Screen For Copper Ore

 Jaw Crusher + Single Deck Screen Setup for Copper Ore Processing configuration is ideal for primary crushing and sizing of copper ore before further beneficiation (e.g., grinding, flotation). Below are key specifications, flow design, and cost estimates for an efficient copper ore crushing system.

Jaw Crusher For Copper Ore Crushing Process

1.Function in Copper Ore Processing:

Jaw crusher is mainly used for the coarse crushing of copper ore. Large - sized copper ore is evenly fed into the jaw crusher through a vibrating feeder for coarse crushing, reducing the large - block ore to a smaller particle size to meet the feeding requirements of the subsequent crushing and screening equipment.

2.Selection Considerations:

● Feeding Size: Select a jaw crusher model based on the maximum particle size of the copper ore to be crushed. The feeding port size of the jaw crusher should be able to accommodate the maximum particle size of the raw ore.

● Production Capacity: Calculate the required production capacity according to the scale of the copper ore processing plant and the daily or hourly output. Usually, the production capacity of jaw crushers ranges from several tons to hundreds of tons per hour.

● Crushing Ratio: Choose a jaw crusher with an appropriate crushing ratio according to the crushing requirements of copper ore. The crushing ratio is the ratio of the particle size of the feed to the particle size of the product.

3.Jaw Crusher (Primary Crushing) Model Example

● Model Example: PE600×900 (Standard for medium-hard ore)
● Feed Size: ≤500mm (typical ROM copper ore)
● Output Size: 50-150mm (adjustable via CSS)
● Capacity: 50-180 TPH (depends on ore hardness)
● Power: 75 kW (100 HP)
● Key Features:
   - High manganese jaw plates (longer wear life)
   - Hydraulic adjustment for quick CSS changes

Single - deck Screen For Screening Process

1. Function in Copper Ore Processing:

After the jaw crusher crushes the copper ore, the single - deck screen is used to screen the crushed ore. It separates the ore into different particle size grades, with the undersize product being sent to the next process such as grinding or beneficiation, and the oversize product being returned to the crusher for further crushing to achieve the desired particle size.

2. Selection Considerations:

Screening Size: Select a single - deck screen with an appropriate screen mesh size according to the required particle size of the copper ore after crushing. The screen mesh size should be able to meet the grading requirements of the product.

3. Vibrating Screen Model Example

● Model Example: YK1230 (3.6m² screening area)
● Deck Type: Single deck (mesh size 20-50mm, depending on target)
● Capacity: 100-200 TPH (matches crusher output)
● Power: 7.5-11 kW
● Key Features:
   - Heavy-duty springs for abrasive ore
   - Polyurethane or steel mesh options

Process Flow

● Dump Truck → Grizzly Feeder (removes oversize rocks)
● Jaw Crusher → Crushed Ore (50-150mm)
● Single Deck Screen → Separation into 2 Fractions:
● Oversize (+50mm): Returned to crusher (closed circuit)
● Undersize (-50mm): Sent to grinding/flotation

People Also Frequently Asked For - FAQs

Q: Can this setup handle oxidized copper ore?
A: Yes, but sticky ore may require scalping screen before crushing.

Q: What’s the optimal output size for flotation feed?
A: 10-25mm (may need secondary crusher if jaw can’t achieve this).

Q: Diesel vs. Electric power?
A: Electric saves 30% on costs (if grid available). Diesel offers mobility.
