The 400×600 jaw crusher is a common primary crushing equipment with a feed opening size of 400 mm × 600 mm. It is suitable for coarse crushing of ores, rocks, and construction waste of medium to low hardness. Under standard operating conditions, this model typically has a processing capacity of 14 to 16 tons per hour, and the output particle size can usually be controlled within 40 mm. It is widely used in small quarries, sand and gravel production lines, and recycling systems.

In the international market, the price of this type of equipment is mainly affected by the manufacturing process, the material of core components (such as the moving jaw plate and bearings), motor power, and the level of automation. The price of a basic 400×600 jaw crusher is generally between US$28,000 and US$42,000. If high-manganese steel wear-resistant parts, heavy-duty bearings, or a variable frequency control system are used to improve operational stability and energy efficiency, the price may rise to around US$50,000.

Furthermore, whether the complete machine includes a frame, belt conveyor system, or dust control device will also significantly affect the final price. Some suppliers offer complete mobile crushing plant solutions, integrating feeding, crushing, and screening functions, with total costs potentially exceeding $70,000.

For users with limited budgets, used or refurbished equipment is another option, typically priced between $12,000 and $20,000, but careful evaluation of equipment wear and remaining lifespan is necessary. Overall, long-term operating costs and ease of maintenance should be prioritized when purchasing, rather than solely focusing on the initial purchase price.
