1. Jaw Crusher
Jaw crushers are primary crushers used for coarse crushing of hard and abrasive materials. They consist of a fixed jaw and a movable jaw that applies compressive force to break large rocks into smaller pieces. They are ideal for processing granite, basalt, and other high-strength stones.
2. Cone Crusher
Cone crushers are secondary or tertiary crushers that use a rotating mantle inside a concave bowl to crush rocks. They provide a finer product compared to jaw crushers and are suitable for medium-hard to hard stones like quartz, diabase, and iron ore.
3. Impact Crusher
Impact crushers use high-speed impact forces to break rocks. They are versatile and can handle both soft and medium-hard materials like limestone and recycled concrete. They produce a cubical product, making them ideal for aggregate production.
4. Vertical Shaft Impact Crusher
VSI crushers use a high-speed rotor to throw rocks against anvils or rock shelves, crushing them into fine, well-shaped aggregates. They are excellent for producing sand and high-quality cubical aggregates for concrete and asphalt.
5. Hammer Crusher
Hammer crushers use rotating hammers to crush brittle materials like coal, limestone, and gypsum. They are suitable for soft to medium-hard materials and provide high reduction ratios.
6. Roll Crusher
Roll crushers use two counter-rotating cylinders to crush materials by compression. They are used for fine crushing of coal, limestone, and other soft to medium-hard minerals.
