200 tph Basalt Crushing Production Line
The value of a wheeled mobile crushing station lies not in its mobility, but in the fact that it requires no foundation. It replaces concrete foundations and steel structural platforms with a wheeled chassis and hydraulic outriggers; once connected to power on-site, it is ready for operation, and the entire line can be relocated and back in production within a single day. There are clear parameters for this substitution: if a project lasts less than three years, involves more than two work faces, or takes place on a short-term lease or a site with pending approvals—meeting any two of these criteria makes the per-ton cost of a wheeled mobile crushing station lower than that of a fixed line of the same specifications. Mainstream capacity options center on three tiers: 100 tph, 150 tph, and 200 tph. The configuration logic consistently follows this sequence: determine material lithology first, select the primary crusher next, and choose the chassis last.
I. Core Applications: Four Scenarios Where Wheeled Mobile Crushing Stations Replace Fixed Lines
1. Rapid commissioning without foundations. A standard 150 tph fixed production line requires a total investment of approximately 250,000 to 400,000 RMB for concrete foundations, steel platforms, and embedded anchor bolts, with a construction period of 15 to 30 days—costs that are entirely lost when the project ends. Wheeled mobile crushing stations eliminate this entire investment phase: once the equipment arrives, the workflow proceeds directly from power connection and no-load testing to material feeding. Manufacturers handle the final assembly and commissioning of the integrated units, allowing for on-site production startup within 24 hours.
2. On-site crushing that moves with the work face. Material sources—such as riverbed deposits, surface overburden ("mountain skin" material), and extraction points for linear infrastructure projects—shift constantly. Fixed lines require long-distance conveyor belts or haul trucks to bridge the gap. In contrast, wheeled mobile crushing stations can be towed directly to the material stockpile for operation, with the output stored on-site, thereby saving on all internal logistics costs.
3. Short- to medium-term contracting involving rotation between multiple sites. The wheeled chassis of these stations complies with highway transport dimensions; they can be towed by a 50-ton class tractor unit. Relocation within a site takes just two hours to set up, and moving the entire line to a new site allows for a return to production within one day. This contrasts sharply with fixed lines, which face 10 to 20 days of downtime for a single relocation—a difference in equipment utilization that directly impacts the ability to meet project schedules.
4. Phased commissioning: validate first, then expand. By decoupling the main unit from the chassis, operators can initially deploy a mobile jaw crushing station to validate material sources and market demand, subsequently adding secondary crushing and screening units as orders grow. For projects where material grade is undetermined or market channels have yet to be established, this is the only solution that allows capital expenditure to be split into two phases.

II. General Application Scenarios for Tire-Mounted Mobile Crushing Stations: Six Operating Conditions and Recommended Combinations
The table below aligns six common operating conditions with specific tire-mounted mobile crushing station configurations, allowing you to easily match the setup to your material source:
Table 1: Six Typical Application Scenarios for Tire-Mounted Mobile Crushing Stations
| Application Scenario | Typical Materials | Recommended Station Combination | Main Finished Products |
|---|---|---|---|
| Construction Waste Recycling | Concrete blocks, brick rubble, asphalt pavement material | Mobile Jaw Crusher Station + Iron Remover + Mobile Screening Station | 0–31.5 mm recycled aggregate |
| Aggregates & Manufactured Sand | Limestone, dolomite, river pebbles | Mobile Impact Crusher Station + Mobile Sand-Making Station + Mobile Screening Station | 0–5 / 5–20 / 20–40 mm |
| Mine Primary Crushing & Phased Mining | Granite, basalt, iron ore | Mobile Jaw Crusher Station (+ Mobile Cone Crusher Station) | Coarse crushed material; medium/fine crushed material |
| Linear Projects (Roads, Railways, Airports) | Basalt, andesite | Mobile Jaw Crusher Station + Mobile Cone Crusher Station + Mobile Screening Station | Roadbed material, concrete aggregate |
| Riverbeds & Short-term Leased Sites | River pebbles, sand and gravel | Mobile Jaw Crusher Station + Mobile Screening Station | Foundation-free; leaves no trace upon site departure |
| Tailings & Solid Waste Utilization | Coal gangue, tailings, desulfurization gypsum | Mobile Jaw Crusher Station + Mobile Screening Station / Mobile Sand-Making Station | Construction material feedstock, fill material |
The golden rule for equipment selection is: "Determine the material first, then the main crusher, and finally the chassis." Material hardness and abrasiveness dictate the type of main crusher: jaw crushers handle coarse crushing of large blocks; cone crushers tackle hard, highly abrasive rock; and impact crushers specialize in medium-to-soft rock and construction waste. Feed particle size determines the feeder specifications and crushing chamber type. Site conditions and project schedules determine the choice between tire-mounted and crawler-mounted units. Reversing this order typically results in a "triple waste" scenario: reduced production capacity, difficult site transfers, and spare parts costs that eat into profits. It should be noted that wheeled mobile crushing stations are not a universal solution for every operating scenario; for projects involving a single site and a continuous extraction cycle exceeding five years, the per-ton cost of a fixed production line—once amortized—remains 10%–15% lower.
III. Recommended Capacities for Wheeled Mobile Crushing Stations (100 / 150 / 200 tph)
The configuration framework is highly consistent across these three capacity ranges: primary coarse crushing, secondary medium-to-fine crushing, and screening/grading. The key differentiator lies in the secondary crushing unit: impact crushers are used for limestone, whereas cone crushers are mandatory for granite and basalt. The table below outlines the primary equipment combinations and actual operational capacity ranges for wheeled mobile crushing stations based on target output.
Table 2: Recommended Configurations for Popular Tire-Mounted Mobile Crushing Stations (100 / 150 / 200 tph)
| Target Capacity | Applicable Materials | Primary Crushing (Coarse) | Secondary Crushing (Medium-Fine) | Screening Unit | Actual Line Capacity | Configuration Highlights |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 100 tph | Medium-soft rock: Limestone, dolomite | YDPZ-900J (PE600×900, ≤500 mm, 80–200 t/h) | YDPZ-1315I (PFW1315, ≤300 mm, 130–250 t/h) | YDPZ-1860S (3YK1860) | Limestone: 120–180 t/h | Entry-level configuration for small aggregate yards and construction waste projects |
| 100 tph | Hard rock: Granite, basalt, river pebbles | YDPZ-900J (PE600×900, ≤500 mm, hard rock 55–130 t/h) | Mobile cone crusher unit PYB1200 (≤145 mm, 110–168 t/h) | YDPZ-1860S (3YK1860) | Granite: 85–130 t/h | Cone crusher used for secondary stage; long liner lifespan; handles highly abrasive materials |
| 150 tph | Medium-soft rock: Limestone, dolomite | YDPZ-1060J (PE750×1060, ≤630 mm, 110–320 t/h) | YDPZ-1315I (PFW1315, ≤300 mm, 130–250 t/h) | YDPZ-2160S (3YK2160) | Limestone: 150–200 t/h | Cubic product shape; high proportion of concrete aggregate |
| 150 tph | Hard rock: Granite, basalt | YDPZ-1060J (PE750×1060, ≤630 mm, hard rock 80–170 t/h) | YDPZ-300C (HP300, ≤230 mm, hard rock 80–170 t/h) | YDPZ-2160S (3YK2160) | Granite: 140–170 t/h | Inter-particle (lamination) crushing; liner lifespan: 1,200–2,000 hours |
| 200 tph | Medium-soft rock: Limestone, dolomite | ZSW490×110 feeder + YDPZ-1060J (PE750×1060, 110–320 t/h) | PF1315 impact crusher (≤350 mm, 130–250 t/h) | 4YK2160 (4-deck, 80–320 t/h) | Limestone: 200–250 t/h | Four-unit integrated line; produces four product sizes in a single pass |
| 200 tph | Hard rock: Granite, basalt, river pebble | ZSW490×110 feeder + YDPZ-1200J (PE900×1200, ≤750 mm, 220–450 t/h) | YDPZ-300C (HP300, ≤230 mm, hard rock 80–170 t/h) | 4YK2160 (4-deck, 80–320 t/h) | Granite: 150–170 t/h | Primary stage upgraded to PE900×1200; secondary stage throughput still limited by HP300 capacity |
Capacity Note: "Single-machine t/h" values in the table represent nominal equipment ranges (based on limestone with a bulk density of 1.6) t/m³); "Actual line capacity" refers to the output range adjusted by a lithology coefficient, without exceeding the nominal upper limit of any single machine—as the total line capacity is constrained by the bottleneck component. Lithology coefficients: Granite ×0.75–0.85, Basalt ×0.70–0.80, River Pebble ×0.80–0.90, Iron Ore ×0.60–0.75. For example, the 100 t/h hard rock line is calculated from the PYB1200’s nominal 110–168 t/h range to yield 83–143 t/h; however, it is capped by the throughput of the primary PE600×900 hard rock crusher (55–130 t/h), resulting in a final line capacity of 85–130 t/h. A target of 200 t/h for granite exceeds the throughput limit of a single HP300 cone crusher; this would require a secondary stage with two crushers or a larger-specification cone crusher, for which a separate proposal can be provided.
Capacity Range Notes: 100 / 150 / 200 tph represent the most common target capacity ranges for small-to-medium-sized aggregate, infrastructure, and solid waste projects; these figures do not represent actual sales data. Please verify the target material against the table above during equipment selection. The final capacity of the wheeled mobile crushing station is subject to on-site commissioning data and technical specifications.

IV. FAQ
Q1: Can the capacity of a wheeled mobile crushing station really match that of a stationary line?
Yes. The main crushing units installed on the station are the same models used in stationary lines (e.g., PE750×1060, PF1315, PYB1200), featuring identical crushing chamber structures; any capacity difference arises solely from feeding continuity. When equipped with a standard vibrating feeder and hopper, the feed rate matches that of a stationary line, keeping the line capacity deviation within 5%—only the chassis is mobile, not the main crushing unit.
Q2: How should I choose between wheeled and tracked mobile crushing stations?
Consider road conditions and the radius required for site transfers. Wheeled units have a purchase cost about 40%–50% lower and can be towed by a tractor for long-distance highway relocation, making them suitable for short-to-medium-term cross-project contracting and rotation between multiple work sites. Tracked units offer superior off-road capability, allowing them to travel independently into muddy or rugged mining areas without a tractor; however, they have a higher purchase cost and cannot drive themselves long distances on highways. If there are roads and a need to move between projects, choose the wheeled type.
Q3: There are three capacity tiers—100, 150, and 200 tph; how do I decide which one to choose?
Work backward from the sales potential of the finished product rather than forward from the equipment price quote. The 100 tph tier is suitable for starting a small aggregate yard, recycling construction waste, or verifying capacity with a single machine. The 150 tph tier covers the widest range of operating conditions; with mature pathways for both impact crushers and cone crushers, it is ideal for stable supply from medium-sized yards. Capacities of 200 tph and above are typically found in infrastructure support projects with tight schedules and high order volumes. We recommend calculating the target hourly output by piding the average daily order volume by the effective operating hours, then adding a 15%–20% capacity margin.
Q4: How much should the capacity be adjusted when processing hard rocks like granite or basalt?
Using limestone as a baseline (1.0): granite ×0.75–0.85, basalt ×0.70–0.80, river pebbles ×0.80–0.90, and iron ore ×0.60–0.75. For example, a configuration nominally rated at 200 t/h will yield an actual stable capacity of approximately 140–160 t/h when processing basalt. Equipment selection must be based on adjusted figures for the target material; do not rely solely on nominal ratings.
Q5: Can wheeled mobile crushing stations operate in mining areas without a stable power grid?
Yes. The YDPZ series supports dual modes: "all-electric drive" and "diesel-electric hybrid." A diesel generator set can be installed for full-load operation, and the system can switch back to mains power when available, thereby reducing energy costs. Export models support electrical standards such as 380V/50Hz, 400V/50Hz, and 440V/60Hz, allowing for immediate deployment without the need for localization modifications.
