Roller Crusher Market

Global Roller Crusher Market: Overview

Roller crushers are used for grinding soft and medium hard materials such as limestone, coal, gypsum, sulfur ore, salt, glass etc. Rolls of varying diameters can be used for crushing the materials. Roller diameter, tooth form, and circumferential speed are adjusted to the type and the size of the feeding material in relation to the required final grain size. In a roller crusher, the material to be crushed is fed into the machine with the help of conveyor belts. The rolls used in the roller crushers are secured either with anchor bolts, and screws. The crushing roll shafts are arranged in heavy duty cast steel housings with lubricated, spherical roller bearings. Depending upon the hardness of the feeding material, a machining of the roller surface at different intervals is required. The materials used in the making of roller crushers are highly wear-resistant cast alloys in order to achieve long shelf-life of the components. The advantages of using roller crusher include high material handling capacity, low susceptibility to breakdowns, long shelf-life, easy replacement of wear and spare parts, wide range of application, minimum fine grains, and gentle crushing.
