A crusher is a machine that uses mechanical energy to break blocks of stone, concrete, or other building materials into smaller blocks of a specific grain size. They are particularly used in the mining industry to reduce the size of ore blocks and facilitate their processing.It may be necessary to go through several crushing steps to obtain the desired end product.
Jaw Crusher
It’s a primary crusher. The jaw crusher is a machine for crushing rocks and other hard and abrasive materials, such as granite, ores or recycled concrete. The crushing device consists of a fixed plate and a swing plate called jaws between which the rock is trapped and crushed. The crusher breaks the rock into small stones that are used in particular for manufacturing concrete for construction and roads.
Jaw crushers use a rudimentary and reliable technology that does not require much maintenance or engineering knowledge. They are the most popular crushers in the world.
Advantages:
1、Low maintenance and operating costs because it has few moving parts
2、Reduces the raw material to about 150 mm
Impact Crusher
Impact crushers are equipped with beaters, also called hammers, and impact plates. Stones are fed from the upper part, then they are hit by the hammers and projected towards the plates. The stone breaks on the plate and bounces back towards the hammers. The process is repeated until the stone reaches the desired size.
Advantages:
1、better cubic gravel.
2、especially suitable for soft to medium rocks.
Cone Crusher
Cone crushers break rock between an eccentric rotating head and a bowl. The rotating head is covered by a wear-resistant mantle. The large pieces are broken once between the two jaws, then they gradually descend into the crusher where they continue to be broken . A cone crusher can crush a variety of rocks, from medium to hard.
It is designed to crush pre-dimensioned materials, generally of 100 mm, 150 mm or 200 mm, and provide finished products of small dimensions.
Advantages:
- Sturdy construction
- High productivity
- Easy adjustment
- Low operational costs
- Inexpensive machine

Mobile Crusher
While stationary crushers have the advantage of being sturdy, it can be advantageous to choose a mobile crusher to get the crusher closer to where the it is going to be needed. Wheeled crushers can be moved to a construction site using a truck.
