Mobile stone crusher VS stationary stone crusher

A mobile stone crusher is better for flexibility and portability, allowing movement between different job sites, while a stationary stone crusher is ideal for large-scale operations with a fixed location, offering higher capacity and efficiency due to its larger size and more powerful components; however, mobile crushers often have lower initial costs and quicker setup times, making them suitable for smaller or short-term projects.When we plan a new project to crush and screen hard stone, how to choose suitable stone crusher plant machines? Here we will analysis factors from project duration, installation, capacity, flexibility, price shipping and so on.

1.Project duration

Stationary stone crushing plant needs longer time. it will be installed in a quarry or mine for long time work. Mobile rock crushing plant is suitable for short time projects, needs to be moved between different working sites frequently.

2.Time for installation and commissioning

Stationary stone crushing plant will be longer time foundation building, installation and assembly.
Mobile crusher does not need to prepare foundation, and the crusher machine was tested well in the factory already. So its installation time is shorter.

3.Capacity

Due to solid concrete foundation, the stationary crushing plant could reach higher capacity from 30 -1000tph. The capacity for mobile crushing plant is from 30-300tph. Mobility is the biggest advantage for mobile crusher. It could not move easily if too big and heavy.

4.Full portability

For stationary crushing plant, tt is fixed on the concrete foundation or steel structure foundation. It will take time and cost to move it between different working sites; Mobile crusher is mounted onto a truck chassis, allowing for easy transportation. But you still need to disassemble some parts so that it can be moved on the road.

5.Price

If the capacity is the same, the stationary stone crusher plant will be cheaper.

6.Shipping

When shipping, all machine for stationary plant can be put into the container and sea freight is lower. While the chasis size of mobile crusher is larger and needs to be shipped by flat rack or bulk vessel, it may take longer time and higher freight.

Therefore, we need to choose the appropriate crushing equipment according to our actual needs and what aspects we should pay more attention to in order to make our project smoother.  Henan Baichy Machinery Equipment Co.,Ltd is a heavy mining machinery enterprise that produces five series of products: crushing equipment, sand making equipment, mineral processing equipment, grinding equipment and building materials equipment.

People Also Frequently Asked For -FAQ

1. Which type of stone crusher is best?

Jaw Crushers: Ideal for heavy-duty primary crushing applications. Cone Crushers: Perfect for secondary and tertiary crushing with precise output. Impact Crushers: Suitable for various stages with impactful reduction. Hammer Mills: Versatile and efficient for a wide range of materials.

2. What are the different types of crushers?

All rock crushers can be classified as falling into two main groups. Compressive crushers that press the material until it breaks, and impact crushers using the principle of quick impacts to crush the material. Jaw crushers, gyratory crushers, and cone operate according to the compression principle.

3. What are the stages of stone crusher?

In many cases, primary, secondary, and tertiary, and quaternary stations are installed to reduce the rock to the desired size, shape, and consistency. Of course, not all projects require all the stations or stages. Sometimes, primary crushing alone may offer enough reduction for your needs.
