A Swedish quarry customer ordered a rock splitter from YG Machinery, received the equipment smoothly, and has already put it into use in their quarry project.


Project Background And Rock Splitting Demand In Sweden
Sweden has many construction and quarry projects that involve hard rock. Granite and other high-strength rock layers are very common in this region. These materials are difficult to break and require reliable solutions.
At the same time, Sweden has strict rules on environmental protection and job site safety. Many projects are subject to limits on noise, vibration, and dust. Due to these rules, traditional blasting is not always the best choice. Blasting often causes strong vibration and loud noise, and the approval process can take a long time.
Because of these challenges, more Swedish quarry operators prefer non-blasting solutions. Controlled rock splitting allows them to break rock safely and efficiently. For this reason, demand for modern rock splitting equipment continues to grow in Sweden.
Customer Requirements And Technical Challenges
Before placing the order, the customer shared clear expectations for the project. The rock splitter machine needed to work well in very hard granite and remain stable during long working hours.
The main requirements included:
- Suitable for high-hardness rock conditions
- Safe operation with simple maintenance
- Compatible with an external hydraulic power source
However, the project also had several challenges:
- Very low temperatures during the Swedish winter
- High requirements for durability and long service life
- Concerns about overseas after-sales support and training
These factors made the selection of a reliable rock splitter supplier especially important for the customer.


Matching The Right Rock Splitter Machine
After understanding the project details, YG Machinery recommended a suitable rock splitter machine based on the drilling hole size and rock strength. The goal was to provide a strong splitting force while keeping the operation simple and safe.
Key features of the recommended solution included:
- High-strength alloy wedges for fast and clean splitting
- Stable structure for continuous quarry work
- Easy connection with hydraulic power units
This solution helped the customer control crack direction and reduce unwanted damage to the surrounding rock. Compared with blasting, it offered better safety and higher working accuracy.
