Granite, an igneous rock known for its exceptional hardness, abrasiveness, and high compressive strength, poses a significant challenge to any crushing equipment. Jaw crusher, for its simple and robust design, making it the primary and high efficient choice for crushing hard materials. Following, we will talk about why jaw crusher is excellent in crushing granite.
1. The heart of jaw crusher is a V-shaped crushing chamber formed by a fixed jaw plate and movable jaw plate. The V-shape ensures that with every cycle, the rock is crushed to a smaller size before moving further down the chamber. It applies force gradually and appropriately at each stage, minimizing energy waste and maximizing throughput.
2. The primary breaking mechanism in a jaw crusher is compressive force. The two jaws squeeze the granite rock until the internal stress exceeds its strength, causing it to fracture. This is a direct and highly efficient way to break hard, abrasive materials.
3. The design of a jaw crusher is inherently strong. Key components like the jaw plates, frame, and pitman (the moving main shaft) are built from heavy-duty, high-manganese steel or other advanced alloys to withstand the extreme forces and abrasiveness of granite.
4. The closed-side setting (CSS) determines the minimum output size, jaw crushers offer a good range of adjustment. This allows operators to optimize the product size for their specific needs and the characteristics of the granite quarry.
