Choosing the Right Hammer Crusher

A hammer crusher is a type of impact crusher that uses high-speed rotating hammers to break feed materials. It can break the feed materials with compressive strength below 150 Mpa directly down to 25mm or even finer in a single stage.

A hammer crusher is a type of impact crusher that uses high-speed rotating hammers to break feed materials. As the rotor spins, the hammers strike the incoming material, throwing it against heavy breaker plates inside the crushing chamber. The hammer crusher can break the feed materials with compressive strength below 150 Mpa directly down to 25mm or even finer in a single stage.

If you’re planning a new 100 t/h stone crushing line with hammer crusher, what is the power and machine model of hammer crusher?

PCD heavy duty hammer crusher

For a medium?-hard limestone feed at 100 t/h, a single PCD1615 hammer crusher is recommend. Its main motor power is 280 kW – enough bite to handle a maximum feed size around 850 mm while discharging a final product ≤250 mm (with a well-controlled fines content).

Why this model? The PCD series is engineered with a heavy rotor, high-inertia flywheels, and wear-resistant grate bars, ensuring stable performance even when feed moisture varies. For harder or more abrasive aggregates, you might step up to a twin-rotor design, but for clean limestone, the single heavy rotor offers the best power-to-throughput ratio.
