Basalt, as a common non-metallic ore in the sand gravel aggregate industry, has a very high application value in the construction, bridge, road construction and other industries.
However, due to the hard nature of basalt, its processing requires multiple steps such as coarse crushing, medium and fine crushing, and sand making, etc. Different types of equipment have different effects on basalt stone. So what equipment is better for basalt crushing?

What machine is used to process basalt?
The processing of basalt stone is divided into three stages: coarse crushing by jaw crusher, medium and fine crushing by impact crusher or cone crusher, as well as sand making and shaping by sand making machine.
Stage 1: Coarse crushing
Large basalt stones are uniformly fed by a vibrating feeder through the silo, and then transported to the jaw crusher for coarse crushing.
After the coarsely crushed materials are screened by the vibrating screen, they are transported to the impact crusher or cone by a belt conveyor for medium and fine crushing.

In the coarse crushing stage, the jaw crusher can complete the crushing of large basalt stones in your plant, which is helpful for the second stage crushing. Its feed size is 125-1200 mm and its production capacity is 1-1000 t/h.
Jaw crushers and advantages
- Deep crushing cavity, large crushing ratio and uniform product size.
- The high-quality steel welded plate, more stable and reliable, avoids casting defects.
- The unique flywheel design effectively reduces vibration and makes the machine run more smoothly.
- The adjustment of the gasket at the discharge port makes maintenance simple and convenient.
- Low noise and dust.
Hammer crusher Get Latest Price
The hammer crusher is a crusher with very high production efficiency and strong working capacity. It is suitable for crushing basalt stones and the basalt can be formed at one time without the need to configure a secondary crusher. It can crush basalt ≤1200 mm with a production capacity of 100-3000 t/h.
Hammer crushers and advantages
- Large output and high efficiency.
- One-time moulding. A hammer crusher can be used as two crushers for coarse crushing and medium crushing.
- Simple production line configuration and less investment.
- Easy maintenance and low wear.
- The sealed structure solves dust pollution.
Stage 2: Medium and fine crushing
After the basalt delivered to the impact crusher/cone crusher for medium and fine crushing, the trommel vibrating screen is used for screening the basalt. The granulated basalt stone ≥ 40 mm are sent back to the impact crusher/cone crusher for re-crushing.

The impact crusher is mainly used for basalt fine crushing. The processed product has good grain shape and less needle-like materials. It can make basalt stones and other materials get a good crushing effect. Its feed grain size is ≤800 mm with a production capacity of 30-800 t/h.
Basalt stone impact crushers and advantages
- The hammer of the basalt stone impact crusher, wear-resistant and durable, has a long service life.
- Semi-automatic insurance design effectively reduces the risk of overload and downtime for maintenance.
- The top model adjustment device is designed to easily adjust the output size.
- The gap between the impact plate and the hammer can be easily adjusted, so the discharge particle size can be effectively controlled, and the particle shape is good.
Cone crusher Get Latest Price
The cone crusher is specially used to deal with the hard rock materials such as basalt stone. It can process basalt raw materials with a particle size of less than 560mm, and its production capacity is 36-2181 t/h.
Basalt cone crushers
- The lamination crushing principle significantly increases the proportion of cubes in the finished product.
- The optimized structure of the fixed main shaft and the small spherical bearing increases the efficiency by 5% - 15%.
- The concave does not need packing. Its replacement is quick and convenient.
- The fully automatic control system of PLC and touch screen ensures the safe operation of the equipment.
- The multi-point hydraulic lubrication control system ensures double protection and overload protection for equipment bearing lubrication.

Stage 3: Basalt sand making
The basalt particles less than 40 mm after crushing are sent to the sand making machine for further crushing and shaping.
Then the materials ≥ 20 mm are sent back to the sand making machine. Materials less than 20 mm are sent to a trommel vibrating screen for screening and packaging.
If clean basalt is needed, it can be sent to a sand washer for cleaning.
Sand making machine
At present, there are two main types of basalt sand making equipment on the market, namely VSI sand making machine (vertical shaft impact crusher) and HVI sand making machine. These two sand making machines can also be equipped with a mobile crushing station to form the mobile sand making machine.
The sand making machine has the function of shaping, so the products produced are cube with bulk density. The feed size of the sand making machine is 25-50 mm, and the output is large with the processing capacity of 12-520 t/h.

What is the price of basalt production line?
Basalt is a hard and tough material with a high silicon content, which is difficult to be broken and has a high crushing cost in the actual crushing operation.
Therefore, the basalt crushing process must be designed reasonably, and the investment and production cost of the production plant must be considered.
