Guide to Key Parameters for Controlling the Shape of Recycled Aggregate Particles: How to Select Suitable Crushing Equipment Based on Moisture Content and Impurities of Raw Materials

In the field of construction waste recycling, the selection of appropriate crushing equipment is crucial for achieving efficient recycling and maximizing return on investment. This guide focuses on the core topic of equipment selection for construction waste crushing projects, specifically analyzing how to choose impact crushers based on the moisture content and impurity level of raw materials.

Analysis of Different Crushing Equipment Based on Raw Material Characteristics

When dealing with construction waste, the moisture content and impurity level of the raw materials can significantly affect the performance of crushing equipment. For example, if the moisture content is high, traditional jaw crushers combined with hammer crushers may face issues such as clogging and reduced crushing efficiency. In contrast, impact crushers, like the PF - 1315 type, can better handle materials with higher moisture content.

Let's compare the traditional jaw crusher + hammer crusher combination with the PF - 1315 type impact crusher. In terms of particle shape control, the PF - 1315 type impact crusher can produce more regular - shaped recycled aggregates. In a case study of a construction waste recycling project, the traditional combination produced about 30% of irregular - shaped aggregates, while the PF - 1315 type reduced this proportion to less than 15%.

Performance Differences and Applicable Scenarios

The performance of different crushing equipment varies in terms of energy consumption and maintenance costs. The traditional jaw crusher + hammer crusher combination generally has higher energy consumption. In a project with a daily processing capacity of 500 tons of construction waste, the traditional combination consumed about 120 kWh per ton of processed materials, while the PF - 1315 type impact crusher reduced the energy consumption to about 80 kWh per ton.

Regarding maintenance costs, the traditional combination requires more frequent replacement of wearing parts. The annual maintenance cost for the traditional combination in a medium - sized project was approximately $50,000, while the PF - 1315 type reduced it to around $30,000 due to its use of high - wear - resistant materials.

The Role of High - Wear - Resistant Materials and Digital Processing Technology

High - wear - resistant materials and digital processing technology play an important role in improving the stability and efficiency of crushing equipment. High - wear - resistant materials can extend the service life of the equipment, reducing the frequency of part replacement. Digital processing technology enables more precise control of the crushing process, improving the quality of the recycled aggregates.

In a real - world case, a construction waste recycling project using a PF - 1315 type impact crusher with high - wear - resistant materials and digital processing technology increased the equipment's service life by about 30% and improved the quality of the recycled aggregates, resulting in a 20% increase in the selling price of the aggregates.
