JAW CRUSHER

Jaw crushers reduce large rocks or ore by means of compression. Mechanical pressure is applied using the crusher’s two jaws; one is fixed while the other reciprocates.

There are also primary and secondary types of these crushers. Jaw crushers are one of the most commonly preferred crushers due to their ability to crush all kinds of materials of any hardness, as well as their low-cost operation and easy maintenance.

 

What is a Jaw Crusher ?

Jaw crusher In order to make use of the rocks or ores obtained through quarrying/explosion in the Mining and Construction sectors, the materials need to be crushed to reduce them to a smaller size. We call this process sıze reduction or crushing.

The goals of the size reduction are as follows:


1.) Obtaining the size or surface area required for the use of the ore or material


2.) Allowing ease of transportation and storage


3.) Separating the different minerals contained within the ore and to release them from one another


4.) Obtaining the size or surface area required for the enrichment stage.

 

In general, crushing is carried out in three stages, depending on the desired size of the material.

 


Primary Crushing

This is the first stage of the crushing process. In general, the size of the feed material, which is between 800 and 1500 mm, is reduced to between 150 and 300 mm.

 

Secondary Crushing

This is the second stage of crushing. Feed size, which is around 150 to 300 mm, of the rock or ore from the primary crushing process is reduced to between 50 and 80 mm.

 

Tertiary Crushing

This is the third stage of crushing. The size, which is around 50–80 mm, of the ore or rock from the secondary crushing process is reduced to between 5 and 12 mm.

We call the machine that performs the CRUSHING process a CRUSHING MACHINE or CRUSHER
