Project Overview
A first-time investor in Peru chose ANDAMINE’s 70-ton stationary crushing plant to process river stone into construction aggregates at an altitude of 4,000 meters. Facing the dual challenges of high-altitude conditions and zero industry experience, ANDAMINE provided a customized solution and deployed an engineer on-site to guide installation, commissioning, and training. The plant now operates stably, successfully launching the client’s aggregate business and proving ANDAMINE’s capability in extreme environments.
Product:70-ton Stationary Crushing Plant
Core Needs:Construction aggregates for local sale
End Client:First-time investor in the crushing industry
Project Location: A quarry in Peru – 4,000 meters above sea level
Background: Opportunity and Challenge in the Highlands
The Andes Mountains of Peru, rich in river stone resources at elevations above 4,000 meters, offer significant opportunities for aggregate production to serve the growing local construction market. The client, a first-time investor, recognized this opportunity and decided to invest in a fixed crushing plant.
However, operating crushing equipment at high altitude presents unique challenges:
reduced oxygen levels cause engine power loss and decreased efficiency, while extreme temperature swings (-15°C to 40°C) affect hydraulic systems and electrical components. The client had no prior experience in equipment selection, installation, or operation.
Challenge: Lack of Customization in the Market
The client faced the following difficulties:
- High-altitude adaptation – At 4,000 meters, low oxygen levels reduced equipment power, making stable operation difficult for conventional machinery.
- Zero industry experience – First-time investor with no prior knowledge of equipment selection, installation, or operation.
- Limited highland infrastructure – Remote site with restricted road access and power supply, increasing installation complexity and timeline pressure.
Solution: ANDAMINE’s Full-Service Support
