For some reasons, hammer crusher and impact crusher are two types of crushing equipment that are easily confused. Knowing the two types of crushing equipment that also play an important role in the sand and gravel production line will help us make better choices. The difference between hammer crusher and impact crusher.

Applicable materials

Impact crusher is suitable for secondary fine crushing of various medium and below hardness materials with side length not greater than 500mm and compressive strength not higher than 350Mpa.

Hammer Crusher is suitable for crushing medium hardness and brittle materials with feed particle size not greater than 1200mm, compressive strength less than 200MPa, and moisture content less than 15%. production capacity

Impact Crusher’s production capacity is between 30-800t/h

Hammer crusher’s production capacity is between 5-3000t/h, and the crushing is relatively large.

Internal structure

The main components of impact crusher are spring, railing, front impact frame, rear impact frame, impact lining plate, square steel, impact lining plate bolts, flip device, main shaft, plate hammer, rotor frame, lining plate, locking block , pressing block, etc. The main components of hammer crusher are box body, rotor, hammer head, counterattack lining plate, sieve plate, discharge port, link mechanism and so on. The internal structures of the two types of equipment are different, but both are processed in the form of impact crushing.

Application in production line

Impact crusher needs to be used in conjunction with jaw crusher. It is a secondary crushing equipment in the crushing production line, mainly used for medium and fine crushing.

The outstanding feature of hammer crusher is that it can complete the crush of raw materials at one time. The large crushing ratio makes it possible to replace the second-stage crusher in the production line, which simplifies the production process and has a high cost performance. How to choose between hammer crusher and impact crusher? How to choose when both devices have their own advantages? What is right is good

Whether it is a hammer crusher or an impact crusher, they are irreplaceable, and when choosing, only the equipment that can meet your own production needs and meet your own production conditions is the ideal choice. Therefore, it is necessary to clarify information such as production capacity, material properties, requirements for incoming and outgoing materials, site conditions, and investment budget.

Appropriate counseling is necessary

This refers to consulting equipment manufacturers. First of all, as the R&D and manufacturer of equipment, the manufacturer has a very good understanding of the performance of the crusher. Moreover, many crusher manufacturers will provide services such as design and production line configuration for free. This aspect has rich production experience and is a resource that can be fully grasped and utilized.
