A mobile crusher is a portable crushing and screening machine mounted on wheels or tracks designed to crush hard materials like rocks, rubble, asphalt, and concrete into desired sizes directly at construction or mining sites. It consists of different types of crushers (jaw, impact, cone) integrated into a mobile platform.
The process starts with raw material being fed into the hopper, then transferred to the crusher unit where large chunks are broken down into smaller pieces. Afterwards, a screening system classifies the crushed material by size, which is then transported via conveyor belts to stockpiles.
The key advantage of a mobile crusher is its portability and flexibility, allowing it to be quickly deployed at different sites. This also reduces transportation costs by processing material on-site.
Mobile crushers are used in demolition, road construction, mining, recycling, and quarry operations.
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 and screening facility set up permanently at a site, designed for high-capacity and long-term material processing. Raw material is delivered by trucks or conveyors into feeders, then successively crushed through primary, secondary, and tertiary crushers. Screening units separate material by size and conveyors transport the products to storage.
Stationary crushers offer high throughput, automation, and are suited for industrial-scale operations. Installation requires significant infrastructure and time but provides consistent, large-volume output.
Typical applications include large quarries, cement plants, aggregate production, and mining.
Differences Between Stationary and Mobile Crushers
The main differences lie in portability, capacity, setup time, and investment cost. Mobile crushers are flexible, easy to install, and suitable for medium-scale operations. Stationary crushers require infrastructure, have higher throughput, and are ideal for continuous industrial production. Mobile units often run on generators, while stationary units depend on grid power. Stationary crushers have a higher initial cost but provide better long-term efficiency.
What Are Secondary Impact Crusher 02 Pendulums, What Are They Used For, How Do They Work, and Where Are They Used?
Secondary impact crusher 02 pendulums are wear-resistant cast parts inside secondary impact crushers that serve as impact surfaces for the material accelerated by the rotor. They enhance crushing efficiency by applying repeated high-energy impacts to break down the material.
These pendulums are designed to optimize the crushing process and protect the crusher housing. They are typically made of high manganese steel or special alloys to withstand wear and impact forces.
They are commonly used to crush medium-hard rocks, aggregates, and recycled materials in quarries, mining, recycling plants, and aggregate production sites.
