Jaw crusher or gyratory crusher for rough crushing of stone
Gyratory crusher and jaw crusher in the sand and gravel production line at the same stage of the head broken, are mainly used for coarse crushing of raw materials, the performance of each has its own advantages, resulting in a number of friends in the choice of coarse crushing equipment on the difficult, the coarse crushing of stone for the choice of jaw crusher or gyratory crusher is good? Here is the answer for you:
Jaw crusher and gyratory crusher difference:
1. Different processing capacity
(1) Jaw crusher adopts intermittent crushing, crushing efficiency is relatively low, the output of a single machine is about 1-1200 tonnes / hour, and in the processing of materials with high moisture will not produce clogging problems;
(2) The outstanding advantage of gyratory crusher is the large crushing ratio, high production efficiency, single machine output up to 8898 tonnes/hour, and work smoothly, any side can be given to the material, can be full of bin feeding.
2. Different shape and structure
(1) Jaw crusher has the advantages of simple structure, low manufacturing cost, small machine height, easy to configure, easy maintenance and repair.
(2) Gyratory crusher has complex structure, high body, large volume, high plant, large investment in infrastructure, heavy machine, inconvenient to carry.
3. Different inlet and outlet granularity
(1) Jaw crusher feed size requirements are strict, the size of the raw material needs to be within the specified range. In addition, the coarse crushing of jaw crusher is mostly flat, sharp or triangular needle-like particles, the content of which is more than 20%, and the product shape is not good.
(2) Gyratory crusher's feed particle size is larger, while the discharge particle size is smaller and more uniform, and the content of needle flake particles in the discharge is less, generally less than 10%. The raw material can be poured into the feed opening directly from the transport, without the need to set up a feeder.
4. Different life span of wear-resistant parts
(1) Jaw crusher mainly uses the squeezing action of movable jaw plate and static jaw plate to complete the crushing, the direct contact surface between jaw plate and material is larger, the wear and tear is faster, and the maintenance is large.
(2) The gyratory crusher adopts the principle of interlayer crushing, the crushing process is carried out continuously along the circular crushing chamber, which has a longer service life than the wear parts of the jaw crusher.
5. Different energy consumption
(1) Jaw crusher adopts non-continuous extrusion crushing, the capacity of a single machine is small, in addition, the size of the crushed material is not uniform, the proportion of coarse material is large, increasing the energy consumption of the equipment.
(2) The average energy consumption of medium-sized gyratory crusher is much lower than that of medium-sized jaw crusher.
6. Maintenance cycle and cost differences
(1) The daily operation and maintenance of jaw crusher is simpler than that of gyratory crusher;
(2) The price of gyratory crusher is high, but its operation cost is low and maintenance interval is long.
7. Different applicable materials and occasions
(1) Jaw crusher can handle ores with high moisture and viscosity, and it is not easy to be blocked. Generally, small-scale mineral processing plants and quarries use jaw crusher as coarse crushing.
(2) Gyratory crusher crusher is mainly used for section rough crushing of various hardness of materials, but not suitable for crushing viscous ores, general large-scale mineral processing plant mostly use gyratory crusher crusher.
