JAW CRUSHER
A jaw or toggle crusher consists of a set of
vertical jaws, one jaw being fixed and the
other being moved back and forth relative to
it by a cam or pitman mechanism. The jaws
are farther apart at the top than at the
bottom, forming a tapered chute so that the
material is crushed progressively smaller
and smaller as it travels downward until it is
small enough to escape from the bottom
opening.

WORKING OF JAW
CRUSHER
INDUSTERIAL APPLICATIONS
Jaw Crusher can be used in mining,
metallurgical industry, construction, road
and railway building, chemistry etc.
FEATURES OF JAW
CRUSHER
Simple structure easy maintenance.
Stable performance.
Even final particles and high crushing
ratio.
Procedure
Prepare 5 kg of the size that can pass through
3in hole and retain on a 2 in hole.
Note down time (t1) required for 2 revolutions
under unloaded conditions. Also note down
energy meter factor.
While crushing note down the time(t2) required
for 2 revolutions under loaded conditions.
when crushing is completed, stop the stopwatch
and turn off the crusher. Note down total time
required for crushing .
Analyze the material using different us astm
mesh sieves and weigh out the mass retained
on each sieve and in the pan.

Limitations
Alternative method for calculating of
energy cannot be applied because of old
and defective meters.
Practical is time consuming because of
lack of electricity.
Future recommendations
I will try to do this practical using different
Materials such as limestone , chalk , clay
and others.
So my recommendation is that please
provide different types of materials instead
of red bricks.
