300-400 TPH Silica Sand Processing Plant in Malaysia

Client Profile

• Location: Malaysia
• Material: Silica Sand
• Production Capacity: 300-400 tons per hour
• Application: Glass manufacturing, construction, industrial sand

Our client, a leading Malaysian construction materials supplier, needed a high-capacity silica sand processing plant to meet growing market demand.

Project Overview

The client required:

• 300-400 TPH processing capacity
• High-purity silica sand production (SiO2 > 98%)
• Multi-grade output (coarse/fine sand)
• Low iron content (Fe2O3 < 0.05%) for glass manufacturing

Challenges

1. Material Characteristics – Silica sand’s extreme abrasiveness requires wear-resistant equipment
2. Production Consistency – Need for stable 300-400 TPH output
3. Product Purity – Strict iron content requirements for glass-grade sand
4. Malaysia’s Tropical Climate – Humidity and rain impact material handling

Solution by Liming Heavy Industry

Our engineers designed a complete silica sand processing line featuring:

1. Primary Crushing – C6X Jaw Crusher

• Model: C6X160
• Capacity: 350-400 TPH
• Input Size: ≤850mm raw silica rock
• Output Size: ≤200mm
• Advantages:
  • High manganese steel jaws withstand abrasion
  • Hydraulic adjustment for quick setting changes
  • 15% energy savings vs conventional jaw crushers

2. Secondary Crushing – HPT Multi-Cylinder Hydraulic Cone Crusher

• Model: HPT300
• Capacity: 300-350 TPH
• Input Size: ≤200mm
• Output Size: ≤40mm
• Advantages:
  • Laminated crushing reduces silica sand waste
  • Automatic overload protection system
  • 30% longer liner life than standard cone crushers

3. Sand Making – VSI6X Vertical Shaft Impact Crusher

• Model: VSI6X1263
• Capacity: 300 TPH sand
• Input Size: ≤40mm
• Output Size: 0-5mm (adjustable)
• Advantages:
  • Produces spherical sand ideal for glass manufacturing
  • 60% less powder content vs conventional impact crushers
  • Patented four-port rotor design extends service life

4. Supporting Equipment

• XSD Wheel Sand Washer – Removes clay and impurities
• Magnetic Separator – Reduces iron content to <0.05%
• 3YK3075 Vibrating Screen – Precise grading of sand products

Technical Highlights

• PLC Intelligent Control System – Monitors production in real-time
• High-Efficiency Cyclone Dust Collector – Meets Malaysia’s air quality standards
• Corrosion-Resistant Construction – For humid tropical conditions
• Modular Design – Quick installation and future expansion

Project Results

• 400 TPH achieved (exceeding client expectations)
• Glass-grade purity (SiO2 > 98.5%, Fe2O3 < 0.03%)
• 30% lower operating costs than conventional sand plants
• Zero wastewater discharge with closed-loop water system
