The Sea Salt Harvesting Machine is designed for mechanized collection of crystallized sea salt from salt fields. It integrates salt collection, conveying, and loading into one machine, helping salt producers reduce manual handling and improve harvesting efficiency. According to different salt-field conditions and processing requirements, this machine is available in three types: crushing type, non-crushing type, and crawler type.
The machine’s harvesting capacity is 150–400 tons/hour. It adopts a front salt-collecting mechanism and an inclined conveyor to continuously transfer harvested salt into the collection system. The crushing model can additionally break larger salt blocks during harvesting, while the crawler model is designed for salt fields where crawler mobility is preferred.

Salt Collector Harvester Machine Applications
The Sea Salt Harvesting Machine is mainly used for mechanized salt collection in:
- Sea salt fields
- Salt ponds
- Solar salt production areas
- Large-scale salt farms
- Industrial salt harvesting operations
After harvesting, the collected salt can be transported for further washing, drying, screening, grading, refining, or packaging according to the final product requirements.
How Does the Sea Salt Processing Machine Work?
The Sea Salt Harvesting Machine combines several harvesting operations into one working process.
- Salt Collection
The front collecting mechanism moves across the salt field and gathers crystallized sea salt from the surface. The collected salt is then directed toward the conveying system.
- Salt Conveying
An inclined conveyor transfers the collected salt upward and into the machine. This eliminates repeated manual loading and lets the machine keep collecting salt while moving through the salt field.
- Salt Crushing
For the Sea Salt Harvesting Machine with a crushing function, larger salt blocks can be crushed during harvesting. This provides preliminary size reduction before the salt enters the subsequent processing stage.
- Salt Loading
After collection and conveying, the harvested salt is loaded into the machine’s salt hopper or collection system, making it easier to transport the harvested salt away from the salt field.
Three Types of Sea Salt Harvesting Machines
Sea Salt Harvesting Machine with Crushing Function
The crushing model combines salt harvesting and preliminary crushing in one machine.
When the salt crystals form relatively large blocks, the crushing mechanism can break them during the collection process. This reduces the need for separate manual crushing and makes the harvesting process more continuous.
适用范围：
- Salt fields with large salt blocks
- Harvesting operations requiring preliminary crushing
- Large-scale sea salt production
- Applications requiring collection and crushing in one process
Sea Salt Harvesting Machine Without Crushing Function
The non-crushing model is designed for applications where the harvested salt does not require crushing.
It mainly performs:
Salt Collection → Conveying → Loading
This configuration provides a simpler solution for collecting crystallized salt from salt fields and transferring it to the next transportation or processing stage.
适用范围：
- Salt with relatively suitable crystal size
- Salt fields that do not require crushing
- Mechanized salt collection
- Continuous salt harvesting operations
Crawler Sea Salt Harvesting Machine
The crawler-type Sea Salt Harvesting Machine uses a crawler traveling system instead of a conventional wheeled structure.
The crawler configuration can be selected according to the ground conditions of the salt field. It provides an alternative traveling solution for working environments where a crawler structure is more suitable.
适用范围：
- Soft salt-field surfaces
- Uneven working areas
- Salt fields requiring crawler mobility
- Challenging harvesting environments
Main Components of Salt Collector Harvester Machine
Front Salt Collection System
The front collection mechanism is the first working section of the machine. It gathers crystallized salt from the salt field and continuously feeds it toward the conveyor.
Inclined Conveyor
The conveyor lifts the collected salt from the front working area to the upper collection section. The continuous conveying process reduces manual handling during harvesting.
Salt Collection Hopper
The harvested salt is collected in the machine’s hopper after being conveyed upward. This allows the machine to combine harvesting and salt collection in one operation.
Crushing System
The crushing system is available on the crushing model. It is used to break larger salt blocks during the harvesting process.
Traveling System
The machine can be configured as a wheeled or crawler type according to the working conditions of the salt field.
Operator Cab
The self-propelled machine is equipped with an operator cab, allowing the driver to control the machine while carrying out salt harvesting operations.
Features of Sea Salt Harvesting Machine
- Mechanized Sea Salt Collection
The machine replaces much of the repetitive manual salt collection and handling work with a mechanized harvesting process.
- Continuous Collection and Conveying
The front collector and inclined conveyor work together to continuously move harvested salt into the collection system.
- Crushing Function Available
The crushing model can break larger salt blocks during harvesting, making it suitable for salt fields where preliminary crushing is required.
- Non-Crushing Configuration Available
For salt that does not require crushing, the non-crushing model focuses on efficient collection, conveying, and loading.
- Wheeled and Crawler Types
Customers can choose between different traveling configurations according to the ground conditions and operating environment of their salt fields.
- Self-Propelled Operation
The machine integrates the traveling and harvesting systems, allowing the operator to drive the machine through the salt field during collection.
- Reduced Manual Handling
By combining collection, conveying, and loading, the machine reduces repeated manual handling of harvested sea salt.
- Suitable for Different Salt Fields
The three available configurations make it possible to select a suitable machine according to salt crystal size, ground conditions, and crushing requirements.

How to Choose the Right Sea Salt Harvester?
Select the right Sea Salt Harvesting Machine based on your actual harvesting conditions.
Choose the Crushing Type If:
Your salt field produces relatively large salt blocks, and you want to crush them during harvesting.
Choose the Non-Crushing Type If:
Your harvested salt already has a suitable crystal size and mainly requires mechanized collection and conveying.
Choose the Crawler Type If:
The salt field has soft or uneven ground conditions and a crawler traveling system is more suitable for the working environment.
Before choosing a machine, you can provide information about your salt field conditions, salt crystal size, harvesting requirements, and whether crushing is needed. This helps determine the appropriate machine configuration.
常见问题
What is a Sea Salt Harvesting Machine used for?
It is used to mechanically collect, convey, and load crystallized sea salt from salt fields.
Does the machine have a crushing function?
Yes. A crushing model is available for applications where larger salt blocks need preliminary crushing during harvesting.
Can I buy a non-crushing model?
Yes. The non-crushing model is designed for salt collection and conveying without an integrated crushing process.
How do I choose the right type?
The choice mainly depends on the salt crystal size, ground conditions, and whether crushing is required.
