Crushing Equipment

Impact Crushers

Horizontal shaft impact crushers for limestone, concrete and other low-abrasion feed. High reduction in a single pass, with wear cost that rises steeply on abrasive rock.

Features

  • Reduction ratios well above a jaw or cone crusher mean one machine can replace two stages on suitable material.
  • Rotor speed, expressed as tip speed, is the main control on product fineness and on blow bar wear rate.
  • Apron gap adjustment sets product top size and is reset as the blow bars and apron liners wear.
  • Blow bar alloy is chosen for the feed: martensitic for high impact and lower abrasion, ceramic-insert for abrasive feed at higher cost.
  • Silica content in the feed is the limit on the method; above a practical threshold wear cost per tonne overtakes a cone circuit.

Specifications

Figure Typical range Unit Why it matters
Rotor diameter x width 1 000 x 1 000 mm The basic size designation and the throughput driver.
Maximum feed size 400 - 900 mm Oversize feed damages blow bars rather than being crushed.
Rotor tip speed 28 - 45 m/s Controls product fineness and blow bar wear rate together.
Blow bar material martensitic / ceramic insert Sets wear cost per tonne for the feed abrasiveness.
Drive power 110 - 315 kW Sets installed load; impactors draw peaks on hard feed.
