Jaw Crusher, also known as Jaw Breaker, is a common crushing equipment used to break large chunks of ore, rock, or other materials into smaller particles. Its name is derived from its working principle, which involves the relative movement of the upper and lower jaws to crush the material.

Jaw Crusher typically consists of a fixed jaw plate and a movable jaw plate, forming a crushing chamber between them. The material enters the crushing chamber through the feed inlet and is crushed and broken by the action of the jaws. The movable jaw plate achieves the crushing of the material through a swinging motion, while the fixed jaw plate remains relatively stable. As the material is crushed, the smaller particles are discharged through the outlet.

Jaw Crusher are widely used in industries such as mining, metallurgy, construction materials, highway construction, and chemical engineering. They are suitable for crushing materials of various hardness and toughness, such as limestone, granite, ores, and coal. Jaw Crushers have advantages of simple structure, convenient operation, high crushing efficiency, and low energy consumption.

Depending on specific crushing requirements and material characteristics, Jaw Crushers can be equipped with different types of jaw plates and crushing chambers to achieve different crushing effects. Additionally, auxiliary equipment such as feeding devices, vibrating feeders, and conveyor systems can be added as needed to automate and facilitate continuous operation of the crushing system.

 It is important to note that when using a Jaw Crusher, proper operation and maintenance should be carried out according to the instruction manual and safety regulations to ensure the safety and efficient operation of the equipment.
