As for the budget for a stone crusher plant, many factors should be taken into consideration. In the following, we will talk about the main aspects which affect the stone crushing plant price.

Pre-stage budget

1.Mining permits and licenses

In the early stage, it is necessary to obtain mining permits, business licenses and production safety permits etc. Processing of these documents requires certain administrative fees.

2. Production site lease

Funds for purchasing mines and leasing production sites are also required. They shall be negotiated with owners or departments based on local market conditions.

Medium-stage budget

1. Equipment input

[Blasting equipment] rock drill, drilling rig, guns, etc.

[Transportation vehicle] forklifts, trucks, excavators, loaders, dump trucks, etc.

[Stone processing] stone production line demands vibrating feeder, crusher, screen, belt conveyor and other basic equipment. If customer also requires crushed sand, corresponding sand maker and sand washer shall be configured.

[Electrical system] machine motor, start cabinet, cable, transformer, air compressor and so on.

2. Civil costs

Civil engineering or steel structure for office buildings, workshop, silos, crushers, vibrating screen shall also be included for the budget. Such cost usually equals to 10% of the total equipment cost.

3. Environmental investment

Environmental protection is general trend for stone crusher plant. Many local governments even expressly require environmental compliance before its operation. Specific environmental protection measures include dust removal equipment installed at the main dust points, confined production workshop, hardening plant roads, green production environment.

Post-stage budget

[Equipment transportation] The machine used for stone production belongs to large mining equipment. If customer selects non-local or overseas manufacturer, it also needs to consider the transportation fees for long-distance transportation of the equipment.

[Manpower cost] For the purpose of production and management, the owner shall hire staff with professional skills, such as accountants, equipment operators, drivers, monitoring staff on duty, etc.
