What materials are suitable for a hammer crusher?
Often used for limestone, coal, gypsum, shale, cement raw materials and similar brittle materials. Very hard or highly abrasive materials should be checked carefully.
Crushing Equipment
Hammer Crusher for Limestone, Coal and Medium-Hard Materials
Compare Zhongji PC-series hammer crusher machines by feed size, discharge size, capacity and power. This page covers the complete machine; replacement hammers and wear parts require a separate parts inquiry.
Where is a hammer crusher used in a production line?
Often used before screening or conveying in a relatively simple crushing process. For limestone, review the crushing and screening solution.
Representative Zhongji Hammer Crusher Models
These PC-series references compare complete machines. Read the feed and output sizes together with capacity: PC1000×800 and PC1000×1000 list the same feed limit, but different output references and motor powers. For lower-throughput options, see the compact hammer crusher model comparison.
On smaller screens, scroll the table horizontally to compare every specification.
| Model | Catalog feed / output | Capacity / power | Rotor diameter × working length | Overall dimensions (L × W × H) / weight |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PC800×600 | Feed: ≤120 mm Output: ≤15 mm | 20–25 t/h 55 kW | 800 × 600 mm | 2620 × 1864 × 1340 mm 3.7 t |
| PC1000×800 | Feed: ≤200 mm Output: ≤45 mm | 34–54 t/h 75 kW | 1000 × 800 mm | 3574 × 2250 × 1515 mm 6.5 t |
| PC1000×1000 | Feed: ≤200 mm Output: ≤15 mm | 40–60 t/h 110 kW | 1000 × 1000 mm | 3514 × 2210 × 1515 mm 7.6 t |

Selection Boundary
When should a hammer crusher be checked carefully?
Material abrasiveness, moisture and the required product size can make a simple hammer-crushing direction unsuitable.
Hard or abrasive feed
Very hard or highly abrasive material can increase hammer and liner wear. Compare the duty with jaw or other crushing options.
Wet or sticky material
Moisture and clay can affect discharge and screening. Send representative material photos and moisture information.
Before quotation
For a project inquiry, provide material, maximum feed size, required output size, capacity, working hours and project location.
