A mobile crusher is a portable machine designed to break down hard materials such as stone, concrete, and rubble into smaller, manageable sizes. These systems are mounted on wheels or tracks, allowing them to be moved from one location to another easily.

Purpose:

  • To crush large and heavy materials like stones and concrete

  • Reduce transport costs by crushing material on-site

  • Prepare materials for reuse in construction and infrastructure

  • Support temporary or mobile job sites with crushing needs

How It Works:

Raw material is fed into a feeder, which transfers it to the primary crusher (usually a jaw crusher). The partially crushed material then moves to a secondary crusher (impact or cone) for further reduction. The screening unit sorts the material into different sizes, and final products are transported via conveyors.

Applications:

  • Road and bridge construction

  • Demolition waste recycling

  • Mining and quarrying

  • Temporary job sites


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, high-capacity crushing and screening plant used in mining or quarry operations. It is built for long-term, consistent production of aggregates or crushed materials.

Purpose:

  • Handle large volumes of raw material

  • Produce aggregates for concrete, asphalt, and construction

  • Serve industrial and infrastructure projects with steady supply

How It Works:

Large rocks are fed into a jaw crusher. They are then passed through secondary and tertiary crushers to achieve the desired size. Screening units separate different sizes, and finished materials are stored or transported.

Applications:

  • Aggregate production plants

  • Mining operations

  • Concrete and asphalt batching

  • Industrial-scale material processing


Differences Between Mobile and Stationary Crushers

  • Mobility: Mobile crushers can move between sites; stationary crushers are fixed.

  • Setup Time: Mobile units are quick to deploy; stationary units require site preparation.

  • Capacity: Stationary plants have greater production capacity.

  • Cost: Mobile units are cost-effective for short-term use; stationary units suit high-output long-term use.

  • Use Case: Mobile is ideal for flexible jobs; stationary is ideal for industrial projects.


What is a Perlite Crushing and Screening Plant, What is it Used For, How Does It Work, and Where is It Used

Perlite is a volcanic glass that expands when exposed to high temperatures, forming a lightweight, porous material. Before expansion, it must be crushed and screened. Perlite crushing and screening plants prepare the raw material for further processing.

Purpose:

  • Reduce perlite ore to desired particle sizes

  • Prepare perlite for applications in agriculture, construction, filtration

  • Optional expansion process to produce lightweight perlite

How It Works:

Raw perlite is first crushed using jaw and impact crushers. It is then screened and classified. If needed, it is heated in an expansion furnace. The final product is bagged or stored for use in various industries.

Applications:

  • Construction: insulation, lightweight concrete

  • Agriculture: soil conditioning, water retention

  • Filtration: in food and beverage industries

  • Industry: paints, plastics, chemicals
