Basalt is a kind of ore with high hardness, which is often used in the construction of roads and high-speed railways. However, due to its high hardness, it puts higher requirements on the selection of crushers. So, how to choose a suitable crusher in the process of producing sand and gravel?
 

Jaw Crusher

Jaw crusher is a common type of crusher with strong crushing capacity and adaptability. The jaw crusher coarsely crushes the ore through the movement of the swinging jaw plate. For basalt, a ore with a high hardness, the jaw crusher can effectively crush it into smaller particles, laying the foundation for subsequent crushing work.
 

Cone Crusher

As a common hard rock crushing equipment, cone crusher can perform medium and fine crushing of ore. Therefore, it is more suitable for processing basalt, an ore with higher hardness.
 

Impact Crusher

If you need to produce 0-5mm fine sand, in addition to the crusher mentioned above, you can also add an impact crusher to perform shaping to obtain the required fine sand.

For basalt, a relatively hard ore, it is very important to choose a suitable crusher. Jaw crusher, gyratory crusher and cone crusher are all highly recommended crushers for crushing hard rocks. If you need to produce 0-5mm fine sand, you need to add an impact crusher for shaping. Choosing the right crusher equipment can not only improve production efficiency, but also ensure that the quality of the crushed sand and gravel meets the requirements.
