Renting a mobile crusher

The right crusher for your job

Whether you are involved in construction projects, demolition or recycling, handling large amounts of materials can be challenging. In such cases, renting a mobile crusher can be a smart move. Mobile crushers are powerful machines that can crush and grind different types of materials, and they are essential for efficiently managing materials on the construction site. In this blog, we will discuss the different types of mobile crushers, including jaw crushers, cone crushers, percussion crushers and shredders, to help you make the right choice for your specific needs.

1. Jaw crusher

The jaw crusher, also known as a chewing or jaw crusher, is a common choice for crushing hard materials such as stone and concrete. These crushers have two jaw plates that move toward each other to crush the material. They are ideal for primary crushing operations and can reduce large rocks to usable sizes for further processing.

2. Cone Crusher

Cone crushers are ideal for finely crushing materials, such as aggregates and rocks. They work through a cone-shaped sheath located inside a cone-shaped bowl. Materials are caught between the cone and the bowl, grinding them to the desired size. Cone crushers are great for producing uniform materials for construction and can be adapted to different crushing needs.

3. Percussion breaker

Percussion crushers, also known as hammer crushers, are excellent for pulverizing hard and brittle materials. They use a hammer or percussion plate that moves rapidly up and down to strike and break the material. These crushers are particularly suitable for secondary or tertiary processing after coarse crushing with a jaw or cone crusher.

4. Shredders

Shredders are specialized mobile crushers designed for reducing materials such as wood, plastic and metal. They use rotating blades or hammers to shred the material into small pieces. Shredders are indispensable in recycling centers and when handling waste materials.
