| Punching Diameter(mm) | 42mm | 46mm | 46mm |
| Crack Width(mm) | 10-20mm | 10-20mm | 10-20mm |
| Cleavage Time(s) | 10-15/s | 10-15/s | 10-15/s |
| Splitting Force(T) | 500t | 800t | 800t |
| Weight(kg) | 240kg | 250kg | 260kg |
The YG-250 model works well for smaller projects and lighter materials. The YG-350 and YG-450 models deliver up to 800 tons of splitting force. They can handle hard rock and heavily reinforced concrete with ease. All three models share the same piston stroke range, crack width, and cleavage time. The main differences lie in wedge length, drilling depth, drilling diameter, splitting force, and overall weight.
What Is A Hydraulic Stone Splitter?
This equipment is a non‑explosive demolition tool. It consists of a power station and a splitting gun. The power station may be electric or diesel. It generates high‑pressure oil to drive the splitting gun. The gun has a wedge mechanism that expands inside a pre‑drilled hole. This expansion creates force that cracks the material. The principle relies on the low tensile strength of rock and concrete. They resist compression but break easily under internal tension. Therefore, this method works effectively. It produces low vibration and noise. It generates no dust or flying debris. These features allow use in sensitive areas.
Applications Of The Rock Splitter Machine
1.Mining Operations
In mining, the splitter breaks large ores into smaller pieces. It also handles secondary disintegration of oversized boulders. Miners use it to extract dimensional stone along joint lines. The non‑explosive nature improves safety underground.
2.Construction And Excavation
Construction projects often need rock removal for foundations or basements. The hydraulic stone splitter removes rock without damaging nearby structures. It works well in urban areas with vibration limits. Contractors use it for trenching and site leveling.
3.Demolition Of Concrete Structures
The hydraulic concrete splitter demolishes foundations, bridge piers, and walls. It can selectively remove sections while preserving adjacent areas. This precision suits renovation projects. Operators control splitting direction by adjusting the wedge.
4.Tunnel Construction
Tunnel enlargement benefits from low vibration. This equipment works in confined spaces. It removes rock noses and corrects crowns without overbreak. It operates safely underground.
5.Natural Stone Quarrying
Quarries use the splitter to extract raw blocks along natural joints. The method produces clean surfaces and reduces waste. It yields higher marketable block percentages.
6.Special Applications
The machine works in heritage sites and other sensitive environments. It can open massive foundations and separate overlay concrete. It also operates underwater.
Working Principle Of The Hydraulic Stone Splitter
The working principle follows clear steps. First, operators drill a hole using a rock drill. The hole diameter matches the splitting gun specifications. For YG‑250, use 42mm. For YG‑350 and YG‑450, use 46mm. Hole depth must exceed 500mm. Second, insert the splitting gun into the hole. Adjust the gun to set splitting direction. Third, the power station delivers high‑pressure oil. This pressure pushes the middle wedge forward. The middle wedge forces the side wedges outward. The side wedges press against the hole walls. Fourth, this expansion creates tensile stress. The stress exceeds the material’s tensile strength. A crack forms and propagates along the desired line. The process takes only 10‑15 seconds. Finally, release pressure and retract the wedges. Remove the gun. Repeat for subsequent splits. The method uses static hydraulic force, not impact. It ensures predictable and controlled results.
Why Choose YG Hydraulic Stone Splitter?
We build our splitters with quality and performance in mind. Here are the key advantages.
1.Powerful Splitting Force
Our YG‑350 and YG‑450 models deliver up to 800 tons of force. The YG‑250 provides 500 tons. This power handles hard rock and reinforced concrete easily. Jobs complete faster with such high force.
2.Rapid Cycle Time
Each splitting cycle takes only 10 to 15 seconds. This speed allows high productivity. Operators can split large volumes in a single shift. For example, one machine can split about 20 cubic meters in two minutes.
3.Safe And Non‑Explosive
The splitter eliminates blasting risks. There is no flyrock, no shock waves, and no flying debris. Operators work in a controlled environment. The method reduces accidents and safety costs.
4.Environmentally Friendly
Our machines produce low vibration and low noise. They create no dust or emissions. They do not need water. Therefore, they suit residential areas and other sensitive locations. The operation remains clean and quiet.
5.Flexible Power Options
We offer electric and diesel pump stations. Electric models suit sites with power supply. Diesel models work in remote areas. One pump station can power up to six guns. Customers can choose based on site conditions.
6.Durable And Easy To Maintain
We build our machines with high‑quality materials. Critical parts feature wear‑resistant design. Regular maintenance involves oil changes and wedge lubrication. The machine operates reliably for many years. Our support team provides technical guidance.
Frequently Asked Questions About Hydraulic Concrete Splitter
One pump station supports up to six guns. For two or more guns, you need a flow divider. This ensures even oil distribution. A single gun does not require a divider. The number depends on your productivity needs.
For YG‑250, drill 42mm diameter and over 500mm depth. For YG‑350 and YG‑450, drill 46mm diameter and deeper depths (over 700mm and 900mm respectively). Always clean the hole after drilling. Remove debris and water to prevent wedge damage.
Use Shell #46 or equivalent hydraulic oil. Fill the tank to 90% of the gauge level before starting. Running with low oil can damage the pump. Check oil levels regularly.
If stuck, the rock block is probably too large. Use a chisel to break the rock further and release the gun. To avoid this, plan your drilling pattern to produce manageable block sizes. Do not attempt to split oversized blocks in one go.
Yes, this equipment can operate underwater. The sealed hydraulic system prevents water ingress. This feature helps in marine construction and underwater demolition. Always follow safety procedures.
