While there are many machines can be used as primary crushers, they can’t be used interchangeably in every industry. Some types of primary crushers are best suited for hard material, while others are best at handling more friable or wet/sticky material. Some crushers require pre-screening, and some accept all-in feed. Some crushers produce more fines than others.
Primary Crushers Used in Aggregate Applications
The types of primary crushers typically found in aggregates applications include:
- Jaws
- Gyratories
- Impactors
- Cones
Primary Crushers Used in Mining Applications
The types of primary crushers typically found in mining applications include:
- Roll Crushers
- Sizers
- Feeder-Breakers
- Jaws
- Cones
- Impactors
The right primary crusher for an application depends on several factors:
- Material to be crushed
- Feed size
- Desired product size
- Capacity required
- Compressive strength of the feed
- Moisture content
The material and its characteristics, e.g., its hardness, density, shape and condition, will affect the type of crusher that needs to be used. Knowing the material characteristics as well as the advantages and limitations of the different crusher types will help to determine the best primary crusher for a given application.
