Equipment List
Stone Crusher Machine
A stone crusher is a machine designed to reduce large rocks, stones, or ores into smaller, more manageable pieces. It is widely used in mining, construction, and aggregate industries to process materials for various applications. Commonly used crushers are jaw crusher, impact crusher, cone crusher, sand making machine and hammer crusher.
Jaw Crushers: Use compressive force between two rigid plates (one fixed, one moving) to break rocks.
Cone Crushers: Utilize a gyrating spindle within a concave mantle to crush material by compression.
Impact Crushers: Employ hammers or blow bars to shatter rocks via rapid impact.

The difference between jaw crusher, impact crusher and cone crusher
Here’s a clear comparison of jaw crusher, impact crusher, and cone crusher—covering their working principles, applications, advantages, and limitations:
1. Working Principle
| Crusher Type | Crushing Mechanism | Key Components |
|---|---|---|
| Jaw Crusher | Compressive force: Fixed + movable jaw plates squeeze material until it breaks. | – Fixed jaw – Movable jaw – Eccentric shaft |
| Impact Crusher | High-speed impact: Hammers/blow bars strike material, throwing it against impact plates. | – Rotor – Blow bars – Impact aprons |
| Cone Crusher | Compression + shearing: Material is crushed between a rotating mantle and concave liner. | – Mantle – Concave – Eccentric assembly |
2. Applications & Best Uses
| Crusher Type | Ideal For | Common Materials |
|---|---|---|
| Jaw Crusher | – Primary crushing (hard, abrasive rocks) – Mining, quarries, demolition recycling |
Granite, basalt, iron ore, concrete |
| Impact Crusher | – Secondary/tertiary crushing (softer materials) – Recycling (asphalt, concrete) – Aggregate shaping |
Limestone, coal, recycled concrete |
| Cone Crusher | – Secondary/tertiary crushing (hard, medium-hard rocks) – High-quality aggregates |
Basalt, granite, quartzite, river gravel |
3. Output Shape & Size
| Crusher Type | Output Characteristics | Adjustability |
|---|---|---|
| Jaw Crusher | – Uneven, slab-like particles – Larger discharge size (typically 50–150 mm) |
Adjustable jaw gap (mechanical/hydraulic) |
| Impact Crusher | – Cubical, well-shaped grains – Finer output (0–50 mm) |
Adjustable rotor speed/impact apron gap |
| Cone Crusher | – Uniform, needle-shaped particles – Medium-fine output (5–50 mm) |
Hydraulic adjustment of concave/mantle gap |
4. Advantages & Limitations
| Crusher Type | Pros | Cons |
|---|---|---|
| Jaw Crusher | – Handles oversized material well – Low maintenance – High reliability |
– Less precise output shape – Limited reduction ratio (~6:1) |
| Impact Crusher | – Excellent cubical shape – High reduction ratio (up to 20:1) – Good for recycling |
– Wear-prone parts (blow bars) – Struggles with hard, abrasive rocks |
| Cone Crusher | – Consistent output size – Efficient for hard materials – Low operating costs |
– Higher initial cost – Complex maintenance – Not ideal for sticky materials |
5. Cost Comparison
| Crusher Type | Price Range (New) | Operating Costs |
|---|---|---|
| Jaw Crusher | 50,000–300,000 | Low (simple mechanics) |
| Impact Crusher | 80,000–500,000 | Moderate (frequent wear part replacement) |
| Cone Crusher | 100,000–600,000+ | Moderate-high (precision components) |
6. When to Choose Which?
-
Use a Jaw Crusher if:
-
You need primary crushing of hard, bulky materials.
-
Budget is limited, and simplicity is key.
-
-
Use an Impact Crusher if:
-
You prioritize cubical end products (e.g., for concrete/asphalt).
-
Processing non-abrasive materials or recycling demolition waste.
-
-
Use a Cone Crusher if:
-
You need high-quality, uniform aggregates (e.g., for roads/highways).
-
Crushing hard, abrasive rocks efficiently.
-
Quick Summary Table
| Feature | Jaw Crusher | Impact Crusher | Cone Crusher |
|---|---|---|---|
| Crushing Force | Compression | Impact | Compression + Shear |
| Best Stage | Primary | Secondary/Tertiary | Secondary/Tertiary |
| Output Shape | Irregular | Cubical | Uniform |
| Hard Material | Excellent | Poor | Excellent |
| Maintenance | Low | Moderate | High |
