A 400 TPH (Tonnes Per Hour) cement crushing plant in India is designed to process raw materials like limestone, clay, iron ore, and other additives used in cement production. Below is a structured breakdown of key aspects:
1. Plant Components
- Primary Crusher – Typically a jaw crusher or gyratory crusher for initial size reduction (feed size: ~1,000 mm to ~300 mm).
- Secondary Crusher – Often a cone crusher or impact crusher for further crushing (~300 mm to ~50 mm).
- Tertiary Crusher (if needed) – Fine crushing using vertical shaft impactors (VSI) or hammer mills.
- Screening System – Vibrating screens to separate different-sized particles.
- Conveyor Belts & Feeders – For material handling between stages.
- Dust Suppression System – Wet or dry systems to control emissions.
- Total installed power: ~500–600 kW
- Primary crusher: ~200–250 kW
- Secondary crusher: ~150–200 kW
- Capital cost: ₹15–25 crores (~$2–3 million USD), depending on automation and brand selection.
- Operational cost: ₹50–80 per ton (~$0.60–1 USD/ton).
- L&T Construction & Mining Machinery
- Metso India
- Terex India
- ThyssenKrupp Industries India
- Puzzolana Machinery Fabricators
- Environmental clearance (MoEFCC) for dust/noise control.
- Safety standards (DGMS) for machinery operation.

2. Typical Flow Process
1. Raw material extraction → Feeding into primary crusher
2. Crushed material → Screening → Secondary crushing
3. Final product (~25–50 mm) → Storage silos → Transported for cement production
3. Equipment Selection
| Component | Recommended Model/Capacity |
|———–|—————————-|
| Primary Crusher | Jaw Crusher (e.g., Metso C150, 400 TPH) |
| Secondary Crusher | Cone Crusher (e.g., Sandvik CH440/Symons 4.25′) |
| Vibrating Screen | Double-deck screen (~15–20 sqm area) |
| Conveyors | Belt width: 800–1,200 mm |.jpg)
