A mobile crusher is a portable crushing and screening plant used to process large materials such as rocks, stones, ores, asphalt, and concrete into smaller, usable aggregates. These machines are mounted on tracks or wheels, allowing them to be transported easily to different job sites. Their flexibility makes them highly efficient for short-term or multi-location projects.

How It Works:
Material is loaded into a hopper and passed through a primary crusher (jaw, impact, or cone). It is then screened to separate different sizes. Crushed and classified material is transported via conveyor belts to storage piles.

Applications:

  • Road construction projects

  • On-site demolition recycling

  • Mining operations

  • Construction waste processing

  • Aggregate production

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 crushing system permanently installed at a site. Designed for long-term use and high-capacity operations, stationary crushers are commonly used in major quarries, mining facilities, and infrastructure projects. They require civil engineering work, such as concrete foundations and power connections.

How It Works:
Materials are fed into the crushing line, processed in multiple stages through crushers and screens, and then distributed using conveyors. Automation and control systems are typically used to optimize productivity and ensure consistent quality.

Applications:

  • Quarry operations

  • Mining and mineral processing

  • Ready-mix concrete plants

  • Large-scale infrastructure

  • Industrial aggregate production

Differences Between Stationary and Mobile Crushers

  • Mobility: Mobile crushers are portable; stationary ones are fixed in place.

  • Setup Time: Mobile units deploy quickly; stationary setups require longer installation.

  • Capacity: Stationary crushers generally support higher volumes.

  • Cost: Mobile crushers have lower initial setup costs; stationary ones require infrastructure investment.

  • Energy Source: Mobile crushers may use generators; stationary crushers require grid power.

  • Use Case: Mobile for temporary use; stationary for continuous production.

What Are Crusher Cast Parts, What Are They Used For, How Do They Work, and Where Are They Used?

Crusher cast parts are components made from high-strength cast alloys, typically used in crushing equipment to withstand impact, abrasion, and high pressure. These parts are essential for the durability and performance of crushers, especially under harsh working conditions.

Key Cast Parts Include:

  • Jaw plates

  • Impact hammers

  • Rotor body

  • Liners

  • Bearings and shafts

  • Grizzly bars

How They Work:
These parts absorb mechanical force and protect structural components. Cast parts are wear-resistant and are replaced periodically to maintain crushing efficiency. Made with materials like manganese and chromium steel, they offer both toughness and longevity.

Application Areas:

  • Crushing and screening facilities

  • Mining and extraction plants

  • Recycling and demolition

  • Cement and asphalt industries

  • Aggregate production
