Impact crusher is a high-efficiency crushing equipment that utilizes high-speed impact energy to break down materials, producing finished products with a cube shape and minimizing tension forces and cracks. It is used for aggregate processing, mining, and construction recycling. Many users may ask what is the production capacity of impact crusher per hour? Here, Luoyang Dahua engineers will give you some advice.
The production capacity of impact crusher ranges from 46 – 670 t/h. To understand which type of machine is suitable for your project, you must consider these key variables:
Type of Material
This is the most significant factor. The hardness, abrasiveness, density, and moisture content of the feed material directly dictate how much can be processed.
Soft to Medium Rock (e.g., Limestone, Dolomite): These are ideal for impact crushers. Capacities will be at their highest. A mid-sized crusher might process 200-400 tph of limestone.
Hard Rock (e.g., Granite, Basalt): Hard, abrasive rock wears parts faster and requires more energy to fracture. Expect capacities to be 20-30% lower compared to limestone for the same machine.
Crusher Design and Size
Rotor Design: The heart of the impact crusher. A solid, monolithic rotor handles heavy feed and high capacities, while an open-style rotor is lighter and suited for smaller, less abrasive applications. Larger and heavier rotors store more energy, resulting in higher capacity and better reduction.
Crushing Chamber: The physical dimensions of the chamber and the impactor’s striking distance determine how much material can be processed at once. A larger chamber means higher capacity.
Feeding Size
The crusher must be matched to your primary feed size. Furthermore, a well-graded feed (a mix of large and small particles) processes more efficiently than a feed comprised solely of all large, slabby material, as the smaller pieces can help cushion the crushing action.
Desired Product Size
This is a crucial parameter. The finer the end product, the lower the capacity.
