A mobile crusher is a compact, transportable crushing and screening plant designed to reduce hard materials such as rocks, stones, asphalt, and concrete into smaller, reusable particles. Its mobility allows it to be deployed directly on-site, reducing logistics costs and project timelines.
Functions:
-
Crush raw materials on-site
-
Support rapid infrastructure and mining projects
-
Enable in-situ recycling of construction debris
How It Works:
Material is fed through a vibrating feeder into the primary crusher (usually a jaw crusher). It is then further reduced by a secondary crusher (such as an impact or cone crusher). After crushing, the material is classified via screens and discharged by conveyors.
Applications:
-
Demolition sites
-
Road and bridge construction
-
Mining and quarrying
-
Short-term or mobile construction projects
What is a Stationary Crusher, What Is It Used For, How Does It Work, and Where Is It Used
A stationary crusher is a permanent crushing and screening plant designed for continuous, high-volume material processing. It is usually established in mining sites or large industrial zones.
Functions:
-
Process large quantities of stone or mineral
-
Provide consistent aggregate supply
-
Support industrial-scale infrastructure and construction
How It Works:
Large rocks are fed into a jaw crusher for initial reduction. Secondary and tertiary crushers refine the material to desired sizes. A screening system sorts the material into different grades. Automation enables continuous, efficient operation.
Applications:
-
Quarry production plants
-
Aggregate suppliers
-
Concrete and asphalt batching plants
-
Railway, dam, and industrial developments
Differences Between Mobile and Stationary Crushers
-
Mobility: Mobile crushers are portable; stationary crushers are fixed installations.
-
Setup: Mobile systems are fast to install; stationary plants require civil works.
-
Capacity: Stationary units offer higher throughput.
-
Investment: Mobile units are more expensive upfront but flexible; stationary units are better for long-term efficiency.
-
Application: Mobile for dynamic sites; stationary for industrial-scale operations.
What is a Calcite Grinding Plant, What Is It Used For, How Does It Work, and Where Is It Used
Calcite is a common natural mineral composed of calcium carbonate (CaCO₃). It is widely used across industries due to its whiteness, low hardness, and chemical stability. Before use, raw calcite must be ground into fine powders. This is done in calcite grinding plants.
Functions:
-
Process raw calcite into fine powders
-
Supply calcium carbonate for industrial use
-
Support various manufacturing sectors with filler material
How It Works:
Raw calcite is first crushed and then fed into grinding mills (ball mills, hammer mills, vertical mills). The material is pulverized into microns or nanometer-scale particles. Air classifiers separate it based on particle size. The final product is packed and distributed.
Applications:
-
Plastics: Strength and brightness enhancer
-
Paints: Fillers and whiteners
-
Paper: Coating and opacity control
-
Ceramics: Raw material for glaze and structure
-
Construction: Filler in mortar, plaster, insulation
