The Difference between Jaw Crusher and Impact Crusher

At present, the development of crusher industry is quite mature, but due to the increasing market demand, a variety of different types of crushing equipment with different functions have emerged, such as jaw crusher, impact crusher, fine stone crusher and so on.

At present, the development of crusher industry is quite mature, but due to the increasing market demand, a variety of different types of crushing equipment with different functions have emerged, such as jaw crusher, impact crusher, fine stone crusher and so on.
Jaw crusher and impact crusher have the following differences:

  1. From the characteristics of crusher
    Jaw crusher is recognized as the best equipment for crushing large materials, which is widely used in dressing plant or sand aggregates plant. The machine has the advantages of low cost and high efficiency.
    Impact crusher can process the materials with compressive strength is not more than 350Mpa (like granite, limestone, concrete, etc.). Impact crusher volume is small, the product particle size is uniform.
  1. From the working principle of crusher
    Jaw crusher has many structure forms and working principle is in the same way, that is, breaking materials through the periodic movement of the jaw plate.
    Impact crusher uses impact energy to break the material. The particle size and shape of the material can be realized by adjusting the clearance between the impact rack and the rotor.
  1. From the scope of crusher application
    Jaw crusher is mainly used in medium and fine crushing operations of various medium and hard ores and rocks in metallurgical, mining, chemical, cement and other industrial sectors. The compressive strength of crushed material is not exceeding 320 mpa.
    Impact crusher processes the material with side length of 100-500 mm, the compressive strength up to 350 mpa. At present, due to the appearance of some wear-resistant materials, impact crusher has been applied in some metal mineral processing industry.

It can be seen that there are many differences between jaw crusher and impact crusher, and its role in the process of ore crushing is not the same. Usually, the stone is broken for the first time with jaw crusher, and then the stone is crushed again into the smaller size with impact crusher. Jaw crusher and impact crusher are matched with each other and used in the stone production line or sand making production line.
