In the gravel production line, the reasonable configuration of crushing equipment plays a vital role in increasing production, improving shape and particle size distribution.Cone crushers and impact crushers are both mining machinery and equipment, and they are both suitable for two-breaking, and the appearance and structure are easy to distinguish.So what is the difference between the two?

Working principle

The working principle of the cone crusher is to use laminated crushing. The rolling mortar wall is constantly moving towards the crushing wall, squeezing the material between the two for crushing.;

The working principle of the counterattack crusher is that the material bounces and falls freely after reaching the toothed counterattack plate at the top of the vortex crushing chamber, and constantly collides with the subsequent upward impact of the material to break.

Scope of application

Cone crusher is suitable for hard materials. The harder the material, the more obvious the advantage of cone breaking.Cone breaking is generally used in large and medium-sized production lines or stone factories.

Impact crusher is used to crush materials with small toughness and hardness. It is suitable for small production lines or stone factories.，

Finished product particle size

There are more needle flakes in the finished product of the cone crusher, and the grain shape is not good.

The finished product of the impact crusher has good particle shape, few edges and corners, and more powder.

Investment cost

The price of cone crushers is more expensive than impact crushers, but the life of wearing parts is longer, which avoids the trouble of frequent replacement of parts. In the long run, cone crushers are more cost-effective than impact crushers.The early cost of cone breaking is low, and the late maintenance cost is high; the early cost of cone breaking is high, and the late input cost is low.
