A mobile crusher is a portable system designed for crushing hard materials such as rocks, stones, concrete, and asphalt directly on-site. Mounted on wheels or tracks, it can easily be transported between job sites. It is widely used in construction, mining, road building, and demolition recycling.

The process begins with feeding raw materials into a hopper. The materials are then directed into the crusher unit—jaw, impact, or cone crusher—where they are broken into smaller pieces. The crushed material passes through a vibrating screen and is then conveyed for storage or further processing.

What Is a Stationary Crusher, What Is It Used For, How Does It Work, and Where Is It Used?

A stationary crusher is a fixed installation designed for long-term, high-capacity material processing. It is commonly used in quarries and mining operations where the processing plant remains in one location for extended periods.

These systems typically include a jaw crusher, impact or cone crushers, vibrating feeders, screens, and conveyors. The material is crushed in stages, and final sizing is achieved via screening units. Stationary crushers provide high efficiency and are ideal for large-scale aggregate or cement production.

Differences Between Stationary and Mobile Crushers

  • Mobility: Mobile crushers are portable; stationary ones are fixed.

  • Setup Time: Mobile units are quicker to install.

  • Capacity: Stationary systems handle larger volumes.

  • Use Case: Mobile crushers are for short-term use; stationary ones for long-term investments.

  • Investment Cost: Mobile systems usually have a lower upfront cost.

What Are Crusher Castings, What Are They Used For, and Where Are They Applied?

Crusher castings are the wear parts of crushing machines that directly participate in the breaking of rocks and other materials. Made from high-manganese steel, high-chromium alloys, or wear-resistant cast iron, these components include jaw plates, rotors, impact plates, mantles, hammers, and liners.

These parts must endure extreme impact and abrasion. Proper casting material ensures long life and high performance of crushers. Choosing the right casting significantly affects the productivity and maintenance cost of the crushing operation.
