A mobile crusher is a portable crushing and screening machine designed to process rocks, minerals, or construction waste directly on-site. It is mounted on wheels or tracks and can be easily transported between job sites. It can be equipped with jaw, impact, or cone crushers depending on the application.
Purpose
-
Reduces the size of raw materials such as rocks, concrete, and asphalt
-
Allows on-site material processing
-
Saves time and transportation cost
-
Enables flexible and fast deployment in various locations
How It Works
-
Raw material is fed into a hopper
-
The crusher unit breaks down the material
-
Vibrating screens classify the crushed material
-
Final product is discharged via conveyor belts
Areas of Application
-
Quarrying
-
Road construction
-
Recycling concrete/asphalt
-
Mining and aggregate production
-
Infrastructure projects
What is a Stationary Crusher?
A stationary crusher is a permanent crushing and screening installation at a fixed site. It is designed for high-capacity, long-term operations and is widely used in industrial and mining environments.
Purpose
-
Continuous processing of high-volume raw materials
-
High efficiency in material reduction
-
Ideal for permanent facilities and long-term contracts
How It Works
-
Material is dumped into a hopper by trucks or loaders
-
It passes through primary, secondary, and possibly tertiary crushers
-
Screens classify materials into different sizes
-
Conveyors transport the material to stockpiles or loading zones
Areas of Use
-
Large-scale quarries
-
Cement and concrete plants
-
Asphalt production facilities
-
Industrial mining
-
Long-term infrastructure developments
Differences Between Mobile and Stationary Crushers
-
Mobility: Mobile crushers are portable; stationary ones are fixed.
-
Setup Time: Mobile units can be deployed quickly; stationary units require longer installation.
-
Capacity: Stationary crushers handle higher volumes.
-
Cost: Stationary units have higher initial costs but lower long-term operational costs.
-
Use Case: Mobile units fit short-term or mobile projects; stationary units are ideal for consistent, large-scale operations.
What is a Conveyor Drum for Sale?
A conveyor drum, also known as a pulley, is a cylindrical component in belt conveyor systems used to drive, redirect, or tension the conveyor belt. A “conveyor drum for sale” refers to this component being available for commercial purchase, either new or used.
Purpose
-
Drives the conveyor belt
-
Maintains belt alignment and tension
-
Transmits mechanical power
-
Supports the belt’s structural stability
How It Works
-
A motor powers the drive drum
-
The drum rotates and pulls the conveyor belt
-
Directional drums align the belt
-
Tension drums maintain the necessary belt pressure
Areas of Application
-
Crushing and screening plants
-
Mining operations
-
Construction material handling
-
Recycling and waste management
-
Port loading systems
-
Agricultural and logistic systems
