Gyratory crushers are predominantly employed in high-capacity mining and aggregate production. Their primary domain is the first stage of crushing (primary crushing), where run-of-mine (ROM) ore or blasted quarry rock must be reduced to a manageable size for subsequent processing.
Key Application Fields:
Metal Mining: Essential for crushing hard and abrasive copper, gold, iron ore, and molybdenum ores.
Aggregate Industry: Used in large granite, basalt, and limestone quarries to produce primary crushed stone for construction aggregates.
Industrial Minerals: Employed in processing non-metallic minerals like limestone for cement production or phosphate rock.
Large Construction Projects: Sometimes set up for on-site primary crushing for mega-infrastructure projects requiring vast amounts of crushed base material.
Processed Materials:
Hard rock (granite, basalt, trap rock)
Metallic ores (iron, copper, gold)
Abrasive materials like quartzite
Limestone and other sedimentary rocks (in high-volume settings)
When to Choose a Gyratory Crusher?
High Throughput Requirement: Start from around 1000 t/h. Gyratory crusher is inherently high-capacity machine. If the plant requires processing several thousand tons of material per hour, a gyratory is often the only viable option.
Material Characteristics: They are exceptionally well-suited for handling slabby or blocky materials due to their continuous, conical crushing action and full circumference feed opening, which minimizes bridging risks compared to some jaw crusher configurations.
High Feed Size: Modern gyratory can accept very large feed rocks, often over 1.5 meters in diameter, making them ideal for direct dumping from large mining trucks.
Long Operational Life and Availability: Designed for continuous operation (24/7), they offer high mechanical reliability and long service life for wear parts (mantles and concaves) when processing abrasive materials, leading to lower long-term operating costs per ton in high-duty cycles.
