The output size (product size) of a jaw crusher depends on several factors, including:
1. Crusher Settings (Closed Side Setting – CSS) – The minimum gap between the jaws determines the smallest particle size produced.
2. Feed Size – Larger feed sizes may result in coarser output.
3. Material Hardness & Characteristics – Harder or more abrasive materials may break differently.
4. Jaw Crusher Type – Different models (e.g., Blake, Dodge, Universal) have varying crushing dynamics..jpg)
Typical Output Size Range:
- Coarse Crushing: 150–300 mm (6–12 inches)
- Medium Crushing: 50–150 mm (2–6 inches)
- Fine Crushing: 10–50 mm (~0.4–2 inches)
- Crusher size (e.g., small lab crushers vs. large primary crushers).
- Feed opening and motor power.
- Material density and crushability.
- Adjusting the CSS changes both output size and throughput.
- A finer setting reduces capacity but produces smaller particles.
- Overloading can lead to poor crushing efficiency and wear.
Throughput Capacity (Tonnes per Hour):
The throughput depends on:
Example Capacities:
| Jaw Crusher Model | Approx. Capacity (tonnes/hour) |
|——————-|——————————-|
| Small lab crusher | 0.1–5 tph |
| Mid-size (30″x42″) | 100–250 tph |
| Large primary | 500–1,500+ tph |
