To choose a suitable industrial jaw crusher for rock, assess the characteristics of the raw material (hardness, moisture content, lump size), the required throughput and the desired final product size; also check the build quality, ease of maintenance and the manufacturer’s after-sales service.
An industrial jaw crusher for rock is a reliable asset in any production facility; to choose the right model, simply assess the characteristics of the raw material, the required throughput and your budget, whilst paying attention to the robustness of the design and ease of maintenance.
Before choosing a crusher, first check the hardness, moisture content and the maximum size of the rock pieces. For hard rock, models with a reinforced manganese steel jaw plate are suitable, whilst for moist material, designs with an increased jaw opening angle are preferable to prevent the working chamber from becoming blocked.
Select the jaw stroke settings and the discharge gap width to suit the required output volume and output particle size; there is no point in paying extra for excess power if your production requirements do not demand maximum capacity, but do not choose a model with too little power either, as it will quickly break down if constantly operated at its limits.
Pay attention to the quality of the frame’s welding, the durability of replaceable parts and the availability of replacements; choose models from reputable manufacturers with local service centres, so that, in the event of a breakdown, you do not have to wait several weeks for spare parts and do not have to halt production for an extended period.
