Mining operations use crushers, commonly classified by the degree to which they fragment the starting material, with primary and secondary crushers handling coarse materials, and tertiary and quaternary crushers reducing ore particles to finer gradations. The impact crusher is commonly used in single crusher systems, the massive primary impact chamber of the RCP allows optimum expansion of the material in process and superior flow consistency.
In industry, crushers are machines which use a metal surface to break or compress materials into small fractional chunks or denser masses. Throughout most of industrial history, the greater part of crushing and mining part of the process occurred under muscle power as the application of force concentrated in the tip of the miners pick or sledge hammer driven drill bit. Before explosives came into widespread use in bulk mining in the mid-nineteenth century, most initial ore crushing and sizing was by hand and hammers at the mine or by water powered trip hammers in the small charcoal fired smithies and iron works typical of the Renaissance through the early-to-middle industrial revolution.
The recycle impactor crusher is one of the most versatile impact crushers on the market, with interchangeable components to 'custom fit' your specific application. Universal's heavy-duty construction combines with versatility to ensure unmatched durability in a crusher designed to minimize downtime and increase profitability in your operations.Recycle Impact Crushers are extremely well suited for reinforced concrete, where impact force provides excellent liberation of rebar and mesh. They feature an expanded feed opening to accommodate large, slabby concrete and asphalt material. These impact crushers are available in stationary or portable configurations. Crushing devices hold material between two parallel or tangent solid surfaces, and apply sufficient force to bring the surfaces together to generate enough energy within the...
