A crusher is a machine used to break down large rocks, stones, and minerals into smaller pieces. It is primarily used in sectors such as construction, road building, concrete and asphalt production, where aggregate material is needed. It works by feeding material into a crushing unit where mechanical force breaks it down. The crushed material is then classified into different sizes using screens. Crushers are commonly used in quarries, mining areas, infrastructure projects, and concrete plants.
What is a mobile crusher, what is it used for, how does it work, and in which fields is it used?
A mobile crusher is a portable crushing and screening plant designed to operate directly on construction sites. It is ideal for short-term projects and can be easily transported between locations. Mobile crushers may have crawler or wheeled chassis and integrate crusher, screen, feeder, and conveyor systems in a single unit. They save time and reduce transportation costs by processing material on-site. They are commonly used in urban construction sites, mountainous areas, road projects, and temporary work zones.
What is a stationary crusher, what is it used for, how does it work, and in which fields is it used?
A stationary crusher is a high-capacity crushing and screening system installed at a fixed facility. These plants are suitable for large-scale production. The operation involves multiple stages of crushing, starting from primary to secondary and tertiary crushers, followed by size classification using screens. Stationary crushers offer durability and high efficiency. They are widely used in quarries, large mining operations, and concrete or asphalt production plants.
What are the differences between stationary and mobile crushers?
Stationary crushers are fixed systems designed for long-term use and high-capacity production. They take longer to install but are more efficient for continuous operations. Mobile crushers offer flexibility and are ideal for temporary or short-term projects. They require less space and can be quickly set up. Stationary systems are preferred in large-scale facilities where consistent and high-volume production is needed, while mobile systems suit projects that require frequent relocation.
