Bluestone gravel is a popular construction material used for road base, concrete aggregate, landscaping, and small infrastructure projects. Because bluestone is a hard and dense natural stone, it requires reliable crushing equipment with strong crushing force and stable performance.
For small and medium-scale bluestone gravel processing projects, the PE250X400 jaw crusher is a commonly selected primary crushing machine. Its compact structure, simple operation, and suitable processing capacity make it practical for customers who need a small stone crushing solution.
1. Optimal Size for Small-Scale Operations
The JAW CRUSHER PE250x400 is designed for operators who do not need a massive industrial plant but still require professional results.
Feed Size: It can handle raw stones up to 210mm in size. This is perfect for crushing smaller bluestone rocks or oversized gravel.
Output Capacity: With a production rate of 5 to 20 tons per hour, it provides a steady flow of material for local construction needs without the high electricity costs of larger machines.
2. Durable Design for Hard Rock
Bluestone is abrasive, meaning it can wear down lower-quality machines quickly.
High Manganese Parts: Our PE250x400 crushers use high-manganese steel for the jaw plates. This material is designed to get harder as it works, extending the life of your equipment.
Non-Welded Modular Frame: Unlike cheaper models that use welded frames, Baichy utilizes a modular, bolted structure. This design prevents cracking under the constant vibration of crushing hard bluestone, ensuring a much longer service life.
3. Adjustable Discharge for Custom Gravel Sizes
Every project requires different sizes of gravel. The jaw crusher PE250x400 allows you to easily adjust the "closed side setting" (CSS).
Flexibility: You can adjust the discharge opening between 20mm and 60mm. This allows you to produce everything from coarse road base to finer gravel in a single pass.
Precision: The adjustment system is simple to use, meaning you spend less time on maintenance and more time on production.
4. Power Options for Remote Sites
Many bluestone quarries are located in areas without a stable power grid.
Diesel Engine Version: We offer the jaw crusher PE250x400 with a high-performance diesel engine. This makes the crusher completely independent, allowing you to process bluestone gravel directly at the source, such as a remote site in the Philippines or an African mining project.
Electric Option: For sites with stable power, the standard 15kW electric motor provides quiet and efficient operation.
