What is the difference between shredder and crusher?
Pulverizers and crushers are used to refine the material processing machinery and equipment, but there are some important differences between them.
Processing objects differ: pulverizers mainly deal with small-sized materials, such as sugar, raw materials, feed, etc. below 5mm. The crusher is mainly used to deal with large lumpy materials, such as industrial salt, and mineral powder.
Discharge size is different: the discharge size of the crusher is generally more than 10mm, if you need a finer size, you need to use the crusher for secondary processing. The pulverizer can be adjusted through the screen to control the particle size of the material, a molding.
The working principle is different: pulverizers mainly use the grinding rolls and grinding rings on the material for crushing, cutting, and other effects to achieve crushing. The crusher mainly relies on the impact force, extrusion force, and other effects to break the material.
Speed and power consumption are different: the speed of the mill is generally higher, can reach high-speed rotation, generates a lot of heat, and needs to be equipped with a cooling system. The rotational speed of the crusher is relatively low, and the power consumption is also low.
Application scenarios are different: when we need to refine the material processing, to powder, we need to use the crusher. And when we need to do preliminary crushing of large materials, we need to use a crusher. In the construction of the production line, two kinds of equipment are used in conjunction.
In general, although the pulverizer and crusher are both fine processing materials, in the processing object, discharge size, working principle, speed, and power consumption, there are obvious differences, and application scenarios are not the same. In actual production, you need to choose the right equipment according to the specific situation.
