A mobile crusher is a portable crushing and screening plant mounted on a wheeled or tracked chassis. It is designed for easy transportation and rapid setup at different job sites.

Purpose:
Mobile crushers break down hard materials like rocks, asphalt, and concrete into smaller pieces for reuse in construction, road work, and industrial applications.

Working Principle:
Material is fed via a hopper, crushed by a jaw, impact, or cone crusher, then sorted by vibrating screens into specific sizes. Conveyor belts transport the final product to stockpiles.

Applications:

  • Road construction

  • Infrastructure projects

  • Mining sites

  • Quarry operations

  • Recycling of construction debris

What Is a Stationary Crusher, What Is It Used For, How Does It Work, and Where Is It Used?

A stationary crusher is a fixed installation for large-scale, continuous crushing operations, typically in industrial or mining environments.

Purpose:
It processes large rocks and ores into usable aggregates for further processing or direct use in construction.

Working Principle:
Material is continuously fed into the crushing chamber. After being crushed, it is classified into different sizes via vibrating screens and transferred by conveyors.

Applications:

  • Fixed mining operations

  • Cement plants

  • Quarry crushing stations

  • Industrial aggregate processing

Differences Between Stationary and Mobile Crushers

  • Mobility: Mobile crushers can be relocated; stationary ones are fixed.

  • Setup Time: Mobile units are quick to install; stationary units take more time.

  • Production Capacity: Stationary plants typically handle larger volumes.

  • Maintenance Flexibility: Mobile systems allow faster component access.

  • Investment: Stationary plants require higher capital but offer long-term stability.

What Are Crusher Casting Parts, Their Purpose, Functioning, and Usage Areas?

Crusher casting parts are high-wear components manufactured from materials like manganese steel through casting methods.

Purpose:
They enhance crushing efficiency and extend the machine’s operational life under high-impact conditions.

Functioning:
Components like jaw plates, blow bars, rotors, and wear liners engage directly with the material being crushed. As material impacts or compresses against these surfaces, it is reduced in size.

Applications:

  • Jaw crushers (jaw plates)

  • Impact crushers (blow bars, rotor castings)

  • Cone crushers

  • Aggregate plants

  • Recycling stations

  • Mining industry
