What are the common types of crushers

A crusher machine is a machine designed to reduce the size of large rocks, stones, or other materials into smaller pieces. Crushers are commonly used in the mining, quarrying, construction, and demolition industries. There are several types of crushers, each with different designs and working principles.

Some common types include:
Jaw crushers: These are typically used for primary crushing. A jaw crusher consists of two plates, one of which is stationary, and the other is moved back and forth by a cam or pitman mechanism. The jaws are used to crush large rocks into smaller pieces.
Cone crushers: These are typically used for secondary or tertiary crushing. A cone crusher consists of a hollow cone-shaped crushing head, which is mounted on a central shaft. The head oscillates, causing the material to be crushed as it falls between the head and the cone.
Gyratory crushers: These are similar to cone crushers, but they have different designs. A gyratory crusher has a crushing head that is suspended from a shaft that rotates in an eccentric motion. The material is crushed as it falls between the crushing head and the bowl-shaped lining.
Impact crushers: These use impact rather than compression to crush material. The material is fed into a chamber containing a rotor with hammers or blow bars, which then strikes the material to crush it.
Hammer mills: These use hammers attached to a high-speed rotor to crush and grind materials.
Crushers can be powered by electricity or by using a diesel engine. They are built with various sizes, and designs and can have different features depending on their intended use. They are built to handle large quantities of materials and work most efficiently when they are used at full capacity.

 

 

Mobile impact crushing station

Using intelligent wireless remote control device, it can walk on its own crawler track, and can operate up and down ordinary flatbed trailers remotely by one person to realize fast transition operations.
The rear frame of the crusher is opened by hydraulic pressure, which is convenient for inspection and maintenance, and the side discharge belt can be disassembled and stacked. Heavy-duty rotors, high wear-resistant materials, and large crushing cavity make the feed granularity large, the product is stable, the output is high, the particle shape is good, and the crushing ratio is large. According to customer needs, optional iron remover or return system or plate feeding system.
