Materials processing
Economically efficient processing of natural stone and recycling materials
Flexible Use, Outstanding Performance
Natural crushed stone and recycled materials in graded grain sizes are used as standard aggregate for concrete, as well as for base, binder and surface courses in road and civil construction. But how are large chunks of rock converted into aggregate of defined size?

Outstanding Flexibility with Mobile Crushers
What are the advantages of mobile crushers?
The advantages of mobile crushers compared to stationary processing plants are mainly due to their versatile and flexible range of applications.
Where are these mobile crushers used?
Mobile crushers are used in quarries, mining, on job sites, and in recycling. These rugged miniature factories on crawler tracks process rock as well as recycled building materials into aggregates and recycled materials for the construction industry.
How do the crushing methods differ?
When it comes to crushing methods, a distinction is made between pressure crushing and impact crushing.
Jaw Crushers and Cone Crushers are crushing machines that operate using the principle of pressure crushing. In this process, the material is crushed between the crushing tools under extreme pressure.
In an
Impact Crusher, on the other hand, impact crushing is used. Here the material is accelerated by a fast-running rotor and crushed upon impact with a stationary impact mechanism.
What role does rock hardness play?
Jaw crushers are ideally suited for processing medium-hard to hard rock and are used as primary crushers. Impact crushers are used as primary and secondary crushers to process soft to medium-hard rock and produce larger quantities of fines. Cone crushers are used exclusively as secondary crushers for hard rock.
