How Jaw Crusher works

Jaw Crusher Working Principle

Jaw Crusher is ideally suitable for primary and secondary crushing. It is carefully designed to provide superior quality and performance with low power consumption and easy maintenance.

Illustration of How Jaw Crusher works

Jaw crusher reduces large size rocks or ore by compressing, a fixed jaw, mounted in a “V” alignment is the stationary breaking surface, while the moveable jaw plate exerts force on the rock by compressing it against the fixed jaw plate. The space at bottom of the “V”, aligned jaw plate， is the output size gap, or the maximum size of the crushed product.

Due to the features of simple structure, reliable performance, convenient maintenance and safe use, our jaw crushers of various models are widely used in the crushing operation in metallurgy, mining, building materials, chemical industries and cement enterprises.
