Project Background: Quarry Rock Breaking Demand In India
The customer is located in South India, a region well known for granite and basalt quarry resources. The quarry supplies stone materials for local construction and road projects, so a stable rock-breaking capacity is critical.
The main challenges faced by the customer included:
Extremely hard rock, such as granite and basalt
Strict limits on blasting due to noise, vibration, and safety rules
High cost and low control of traditional breaking methods
In recent years, local authorities in India have increased environmental and safety supervision. Blasting permits are harder to obtain, and vibration complaints from nearby communities are common. The customer needed a safe, controllable, and low-cost rock-breaking solution suitable for daily quarry operations.
Before contacting YG Machinery, the customer searched online using terms such as:
hydraulic rock splitting machine for sale
non-explosive rock breaking solution
These searches clearly showed a strong purchase intention combined with a need for proven quarry cases.
Why the Hydraulic Rock Splitting Machine Was Chosen For This Project
After comparing several rock-breaking methods, the customer selected Hydraulic Rock Splitting as the best solution for this quarry project.
Traditional blasting has clear disadvantages:
High safety risk
Strong vibration and flying stones
Complex approval process
Poor control over crack direction
Mechanical breakers also showed limits when facing hard granite, including slow speed and high wear cost.
In contrast, hydraulic rock splitting offers clear advantages:
Non-explosive and vibration-free, suitable for sensitive areas
Precise splitting direction, reducing material waste
Strong splitting force, ideal for hard rock quarry work
Low operating and maintenance costs, suitable for long-term use
This solution fully meets Indian quarry safety and environmental requirements. It also supports continuous daily operation, which greatly improves overall production efficiency.

Quarry Rock Splitting Equipment Adapted For Local Conditions
Quarry Rock Splitting Equipment Customisation Details
To ensure stable performance in South India’s working conditions, the equipment was adjusted to meet local needs.
Key customisation points included:
Adaptation for high-temperature environments
Easy-maintenance hydraulic system design
Use of standardised spare parts for local replacement
The hydraulic rock splitting machine was powered by a diesel unit, making it suitable for quarry sites with limited electricity supply. This design improves flexibility and reduces operating restrictions.
