The decision in one table
| Factor | Choose mobile when | Choose stationary when |
|---|---|---|
| Reserve | Small deposits, several sites, or the face advances | Multi-year reserve in one place |
| Annual tonnage | Below ~500,000 t/year per site | Above that, economy shifts to fixed plant |
| Contract type | Contract crushing, demolition, road corridors | Dedicated quarry supplying steady demand |
| Infrastructure | No power, no foundations, short notice | Grid power or economical genset, civil works acceptable |
| Cost per tonne | Higher operating cost, no civil cost | Lower operating cost after foundations paid |
| Resale/exit | Plant keeps value and moves to the next job | Civil works stay in the ground |
The hidden costs each way
- Mobile: fuel and wear cost per tonne runs higher; tracked undercarriages are consumables — budget them. Transport between distant sites may need low-bed permits.
- Stationary: foundations, steelwork and electrical installation typically add 20–35% to equipment cost, and commissioning takes months, not days.
A hybrid that often wins
Mobile primary jaw at the face, then a fixed secondary-and-screening station at the plant site. You move the machine that follows the rock and keep the efficiency of fixed equipment where tonnage concentrates. We source both halves and pre-match the interface.
Rule of thumb
If the plant must move more than twice a year, mobile usually wins. If it will sit for five years, stationary almost always wins. Between those, send us your reserve estimate and site plan and we'll model both.
