In the Philippines, various machines are used for crushing quarry stone, depending on the size and hardness of the material and the desired output. Some commonly used machines include:
Jaw Crusher: Ideal for primary crushing of large stones. It works by compressing the material between a fixed jaw and a moving jaw.
Cone Crusher: Suitable for secondary and tertiary crushing. It crushes stones by squeezing them between a gyrating spindle and an enclosing concave hopper.
Impact Crusher: This machine is used for stones that are less abrasive. It employs impact force to break stones by hitting them with high-speed blow bars.
Hammer Mill: Utilized for smaller scales or secondary crushing, it uses hammers to crush materials into smaller sizes.
Mobile Crushing Plant: Offers flexibility and ease of transport. It includes various combinations of crushers and screens integrated into one machine.
VSI (Vertical Shaft Impact) Crusher: Used for producing fine aggregates. It crushes stones using the principle of rock-on-rock crushing.
These machines can be customized based on the specific requirements of the quarry operation.
