An impact crusher is a versatile crushing machine that utilizes impact force to reduce the size of materials. It works by feeding the material into a rapidly rotating rotor equipped with blow bars or hammers. These blow bars strike the incoming material, throwing it against the impact plates (or aprons) lining the crushing chamber. This repeated impact action causes the material to break along its natural fissures, resulting in a well-graded, cubical end product. It is highly effective for soft to medium-hard materials and is a popular choice for both primary and secondary crushing applications.
Impact crushers are ideal for processing a wide range of soft to medium-hard materials. Common feed materials include:
Limestone and other aggregates: The most common application, producing crushed stone for concrete and asphalt.
Recycled concrete and asphalt: Excellent for crushing demolition waste into reusable aggregate.
Sandstone and gypsum: Effective for softer sedimentary rocks.
Coal: Used in coal mines and power plants for crushing coal.
It is not suitable for very hard or abrasive materials like granite or quartzite without specialized wear parts, as these can cause excessive wear.
Impact crushers are pivotal in several industries due to their ability to produce a high-quality, cubical product. Their main applications include:
Mining and Quarrying: Primary and secondary crushing of aggregates (sand, gravel, crushed stone).
Construction and Demolition (C&D) Recycling: Crushing concrete, asphalt, and bricks to create recycled aggregate for new construction projects.
Cement Industry: Crushing limestone, the primary raw material for cement production.
Chemical and Fertilizer Industries: Size reduction of various minerals and compounds.
Why choose an impact crusher over other types? Here are its standout features:
High Reduction Ratio: Can reduce large feed material into a fine product in a single pass.
Excellent Product Shape: Produces a uniformly cubical product, which is highly desirable for asphalt and concrete applications.
Cost-Effective Operation: Generally have lower initial costs and lower power consumption compared to compression crushers like jaw crushers.
Versatility: Can be used as both primary and secondary crushers. Many models allow for adjustable output size by simply changing the rotor speed or adjusting the impact aprons.
Selective Crushing: The impact action is more effective at breaking along natural cleavage lines, making it efficient.
Impact crushers come in various sizes and configurations to meet different production needs. Common classifications include:
Horizontal Shaft Impactor (HSI): The most common type, featuring a horizontal rotor shaft. Ideal for soft to medium-hard materials and recycling.
Vertical Shaft Impactor (VSI): Uses a high-speed rotor to throw material against a crushing chamber. Excellent for producing finely shaped sand and aggregate.
Models are typically distinguished by the rotor size (diameter and width) and the crusher’s capacity (e.g., throughput in tons per hour). Common model series might include APK, APS, and CI series, with numbers indicating size (e.g., CI1313).
