Impact Crusher

What is an impact crusher?

FTM Machinery impact crusher is a processing equipment that uses impact energy to perform secondary and tertiary crushing of medium-hard brittle materials (compressive strength not exceeding 350 MPa).

It is a horizontal shaft impact crusher, often combined with a jaw crusher to form a fixed, portable and track-mounted crushing production line.

The impact rock crushers can crush materials smaller than 800 mm, such as granite, limestone, concrete, etc. Its discharge size is adjustable. The finished product is uniform and cubic, and can be used in mine crushing, railway, highway, energy, cement, chemical, construction and other industries.

Main parts of the impact crusher

Horizontal impact crusher parts are composed of blow bars, rotor, main shaft and impact plates.

Why choose FTM Machinery impact crushers?

• Very high crushing efficiency and large output.
• The product has a good grain shape and is uniform.
• The material of the blow bar as wearing parts is excellent, and the heavy blow bar design is adopted, which is more durable than the high manganese steel material in the market.
• The asymmetrical design of the hopper allows concrete and rocks to hit the hopper first and then pass through the crusher without clogging.
• The hydraulic apron adjustment and overload protection system is capable of monitoring the machine's running status at any time, ensuring it remains operational.
• Low failure rate and low power consumption.
• High-strength frame allows for strong connections and is lightweight for easy maintenance and transportation.
• Hydra arm lift and direct drive system design make machine maintenance more convenient.
• The sealing device design reduces dust and noise, and is more environmentally friendly and safe.

How does an impact crusher work?

When the machine is working, the rotor rotates at a high speed driven by the motor. When the material enters the blow bar action area of the crushing chamber, it collides with the blow bar on the rotor and breaks.

After that, it is thrown to the impact device to be crushed again, and then bounces from the impact liner back to the blow bar action area for re-crushing.

This process is repeated. The material enters the first, second and third impact chambers from large to small for repeated crushing until the material is crushed to the required particle size and discharged from the discharge port.

Customer cases

1. Impact crushers recycling construction waste

Many construction wastes can be reused. If being processed by landfill, it will destroy the environment.

This Australian company is committed to recycling construction waste, and it does successfully get reused sand and aggregate from concrete waste. Last year the company leader Aric contacted us to purchase impact crushing plant. FTM Machinery engineers made a solution for them.

100 TPH stone production line

• Raw materials: Waste concrete and bricks
• Feed size: ≦400 mm
• Motor speed: 2,000 RPM
• Service life of the main wearing parts: about 300 hours (hammers)
• Output size: 0–7 mm, 7–15 mm, 15–20 mm, and 20–40 mm

The equipment has been in use for more than a year. According to customer feedback, the impact crusher still runs well, which brings them huge benefits.

2. 180-200 t/h limestone impact crusher in India

• Raw material: Limestone
• Final product: 0–44 mm
• Production demand: 180–120 t/h
• Feed size: ≦1,020 mm
• Configuration type: Jaw crusher+impact crusher+vibrating screen
• Estimated investment: USD46,000–USD103,000

Customer feedback:

"The impact crusher improves 20%–30% more fuel efficient than a standard gear pump, which means the machines have much less hydraulic oil capacity. So, my hydraulic oil reservoirs are about 50%–60% smaller than other machines in this category. Besides, its unique housing design allows me to complete all routine blow bars, rotor, and hammer inspections within 2–3 minutes."
