1. PAINPOINT DRIVEN OPENING

Are you managing the high costs and operational disruptions associated with primary jaw crusher discharge? Your secondary crushing stage faces consistent challenges: excessive wear part consumption from abrasive feed material, unplanned downtime for liner changes, and inconsistent product gradation affecting downstream processes. These issues directly impact your plant’s throughput and profitability.

Consider your current operation. How often are you replacing hammers or blow bars? What is the true cost of a multihour shutdown to address a damaged rotor or replace worn components? Is your final product shape meeting spec without requiring additional processing steps? The efficiency of your secondary crushing circuit is pivotal. A robust, wellengineered high quality impact crusher is not merely another piece of equipment; it is the critical component that determines your aggregate shape, product yield, and longterm operating expenditure.

2. PRODUCT OVERVIEW

A high quality impact crusher is a heavyduty machine designed for the secondary or tertiary reduction of materials such as limestone, concrete, asphalt, and demolition debris. It utilizes impact force rather than compression to fracture material.

Operational Workflow:
1. Feed Entry: Sized feed from a primary crusher is directed into the feed opening.
2. Acceleration & Impact: Material enters the chamber and is struck by highspeed rotating hammers (blow bars) mounted on a solid rotor.
3. Fragmentation: Material shatters upon impact with the blow bars and is subsequently thrown against fixed impact plates (apron liners).
4. Control & Discharge: The fractured material passes through adjustable aprons or grates, which control the output size. The final product is discharged onto a conveyor system.

Application Scope: Ideal for producing cubical aggregate for asphalt and concrete, recycling construction and demolition waste, and processing mediumhard, nonabrasive to moderately abrasive materials.

Key Limitations: Not typically suited for primary crushing of very large feed sizes or for processing highly abrasive materials (e.g., granite, trap rock) where compressionstyle crushers may offer superior wear life.

6. APPLICATION SCENARIOS

Aggregate Production Plant – Limestone Quarrying

Challenge: A large quarry’s existing secondary crusher produced excessive fines (<4mm) and flaky material, failing to meet premium concrete aggregate specifications. High wear rates were also driving up cost per ton.
Solution: Installation of a high quality impact crusher with a multichamber design optimized for limestone was implemented into the secondary position.
Results: Particle shape improved significantly, with the cubicity index rising from 72% to over 90%. Yield of premiumgrade (+4mm) aggregate increased by 22%. Simultaneously, wear metal consumption decreased by 30%, improving overall margin per ton processed.

Construction & Demolition Waste Recycling Facility

Challenge: Processing highly variable C&D feed containing rebarreinforced concrete chunks led to frequent jamming and rotor damage in standard impactors, causing unpredictable downtime.
Solution: Deployment of a high quality impact crusher featuring a solid rotor with extreme inertia and hydraulic adjustment/clearance systems designed to handle uncrushable tramp material.
Results: Unplanned stoppages due to tramp metal or bridging were reduced by over 80%. The machine’s ability to process larger slabs of reinforced concrete increased total facility throughput by 35%, while producing clean, wellshaped recycled aggregate suitable for road base applications.
