In Southern Peru's demanding mining landscape, a 5000-ton-per-day copper ore crushing project has set new benchmarks for reliability and performance. The project, processing malachite ore with an 8.6% grade, required robust equipment capable of delivering 0-12mm product size (90% ≤0-8mm) across 16-hour daily operations.
Customer-Centric Crusher Selection
The HPT Series Cone Crusher emerged as the solution of choice, praised by operators for its unparalleled efficiency and stability. As the customer affirmed: "High efficiency, high capacity, high quality and stability – that is all I need." This endorsement underscores LIMING Heavy Industry's reputation for engineering crushers that minimize downtime while maximizing throughput in abrasive copper ore applications.
Technical Excellence in Action
Key project specifications include:
Material: Malachite copper ore (density: 3.6t/m³)
Capacity: 5,000tpd at 8.6% grade
Output: 90% fines ≤8mm
Runtime: 16h/day (two shifts)
The HPT crusher's multi-cylinder hydraulic system ensures consistent particle size distribution, critical for downstream processing. Its intelligent automation adapts to ore hardness variations, maintaining peak performance in Peru's high-altitude surface mining conditions.
Why This Case Study Matters
