1. Jaw Crusher  Capacity: 12-1510 tons/hour

The jaw crusher is designed for processing large raw materials. Its wide feed opening allows for easy crushing of materials up to 1500 mm in size, reducing them to less than 400 mm, demonstrating powerful crushing capabilities. Thanks to the precise interaction and compression of the movable and stationary jaw plates, it effectively crushes various types of hard stones, making it indispensable equipment for primary crushing in aggregate production lines. Its high efficiency and wide range of applications ensure smooth operation of the production line and standardization of the final product.

2. Impact Crusher/Cone Crusher  Capacity: 45-2000 tons/hour

The cone crusher is designed for secondary crushing of materials, especially suitable for high-hardness rocks and ores. Its significant crushing ratio ensures efficient material reduction. The multi-chamber crushing method is flexible and adaptable, allowing for easy satisfaction of various finished product requirements by simply replacing the crushing chamber. It is equipped with a hydraulic anti-jamming system that automatically shuts down the machine when unbreakable foreign objects enter, effectively preventing equipment damage and ensuring operator safety.

The impact crusher can be used for secondary and tertiary crushing and is more suitable for crushing soft materials. It mainly uses a rotor and impact plates to crush and grind stones entering the crushing chamber through compression and friction. Using the "stone-on-stone" crushing principle, it finely crushes the stones, providing a good crushing effect for crushed stone and sand and a uniform particle size of the finished product.
