A crusher is a heavy-duty machine used to reduce the size of large rocks, stones, or ores into smaller, manageable aggregates. Crushers are commonly used in quarries, mining sites, recycling centers, and construction projects. They can operate at various crushing stages: primary, secondary, and tertiary, depending on the required size and material type.

2. What is a Crusher Used For?

The primary purpose of a crusher is to produce aggregate material suitable for use in concrete, asphalt, road base, and other construction applications. It is also used in mineral processing and to recycle construction and demolition waste into reusable materials.

3. How Does a Crusher Work?

Crushers work by feeding large rocks into a chamber where mechanical force is applied to crush them. This is typically achieved using jaw crushers (compression), impact crushers (impact force), or cone crushers (shear and compression). After crushing, materials are passed through vibrating screens to sort them into different sizes for use in specific applications.

4. Where is a Crusher Used?

  • Aggregate production in quarries

  • Raw material preparation for concrete and asphalt plants

  • Ore preparation in mining operations

  • Demolition waste recycling

  • Major infrastructure construction (dams, tunnels, highways)

  • Industrial material processing

1. What is a Mobile Crusher?

A mobile crusher is a portable crushing and screening plant that can be easily transported and installed on-site. Unlike fixed crushers, mobile units are mounted on wheels or tracks and offer high flexibility for operations in remote or temporary job sites.

2. What is a Mobile Crusher Used For?

Mobile crushers are ideal for short-term projects and locations where it is impractical to set up a stationary plant. They are used to process stone, gravel, or recycled materials directly at the construction site, reducing transportation costs and increasing operational efficiency.

3. How Does a Mobile Crusher Work?

A mobile crusher includes a power unit (diesel or electric), crusher unit (jaw, impact, or cone), screening deck, and conveyor system—all mounted on a single chassis. Once on-site, it can be deployed quickly, and materials are fed directly for crushing and screening. Automated controls and compact design enhance productivity and mobility.

4. Where is a Mobile Crusher Used?

  • Road, dam, and tunnel construction

  • Temporary stone crushing operations at project sites

  • Quarrying in remote or mountainous areas

  • On-site recycling of construction waste

  • Environmental and land rehabilitation

  • Emergency disaster relief for material production
