About Crushers

Often found on construction material recycling jobsites and mining sites, crushers use pressure or striking to break large rocks into smaller pieces, clear down to sand, gravel, or slag to be used in aggregate. Rocks typically go through multiple rounds of crushing to reach the desired size.

Variants

Crushers come in three main types: jaw crusher, cone and gyratory crusher, and impact crusher. Jaw crushers, sometimes referred to as “toggle crushers,” are the most common type of crusher; they compress material between a moving piece of steel and a stationary piece. Cone crushers are compression crushers that use a rotating piece of steel against a stationary piece of steel to reduce material size. While similar in design and function to gyratory crushers, cone crushers are typically smaller and rotate at a higher speed. Gyratory crushers have a solid cone on the inside that revolves against the sloping outer sides to compress material. While cone crushers are usually supported at the base, gyratory crushers are suspended. Impact crushers, sometimes called “hammer crushers,” use mass and velocity to break up pieces with a blow bar or hammer that strikes a stationary plate. When the rock hits the plate or anvil, it breaks on natural stress lines to create a uniform product.
