What Is The Difference Between A Jaw Crusher And A Hammer Crusher?

In many customer inquiries, many friends asked: if only a single hammer crusher can be used? No jaw crusher is used. About this question. We first need to understand what is the difference between hammer crusher and jaw crusher? Today with this question. We will specifically introduce the difference between the two.

 

Crushing materials are different: Jaw crusher can crush all kinds of soft and hard materials. The compressive strength is 300~350Mpa, such as: quartzite, pebbles, granite, basalt, iron ore and so on. Hammer breakers are mainly used to crush ores and rocks with low hardness. The compressive strength is generally lower than 500Mpa, such as: lapis lazuli, gangue, limestone, quartzite, bauxite, cement clinker and so on. If the crushing hardness material. Then there will be serious wear and tear of the hammer head and other problems. Change a packet of hammer head is higher production cost. It’s not worth it. It is not worth the effort and money.

Working principle is different: Jawbreaker is mainly through the combination of movable jaw plate and static jaw plate into a crushing chamber. Usually called deep ‘V’ type crushing chamber. By imitating the animal’s two jaws bite cooperation to achieve material crushing. Often called: ‘tiger mouth’. In the crushing operation. The movable jaws repeatedly approach and leave. Thus realising multiple crushing force on the material. The material will be crushed to a smaller size. Until it meets the demand of particle size and then discharged. Finish crushing. The distance between the movable jaw and the static jaw can be adjusted according to the particle size required by customers. The hammer crusher is led by the hammer head. In the crushing operation. The rotor with hammer head will rotate rapidly. The high-speed rotating hammer breaks continuously crush, hit and shear the materials. Thus the purpose of crushing materials is achieved. The discharge port at the bottom of the crushing chamber is equipped with a screen. Until it reaches the required size of the crushed material, it will be discharged.

 

Hammer Crusher

 

Different configurations of production line: In the sand and gravel aggregate production line. Jaw crusher is often used as coarse crushing equipment. For the second medium crushing, impact crusher and cone crusher are used. Finally, the sand making machine is used for fine crushing and then shaping. Hammer crusher is rarely used in sand and gravel materials. Although the process is simple. But the efficiency of the finished product is low, and there are many powdery materials. Hammer crusher through the use of industrial primary crushing, a moulding. No need for secondary crushing and shaping. Often used in small and medium-sized production lines. More economical.
