Cage crusher

Crushing technology

Cage crusher

The cage crusher reduces medium-hard, brittle and moist materials between concentric counter-rotating cages. Stepwise impact supports a controlled product distribution; drive and result are sized for the project.

Operating principle

Two or more concentric cages run in opposite directions. Material travels from the inside out and takes a further impact at each stage. The open geometry can reduce the risk of tight material plugs; drive and wear protection are sized for the project.

Where this machine is used

Fertiliser, calcite, lime, coal, salt, chemical raw materials and agricultural products.

Frequently asked sizing questions

Which materials suit assessment with a cage crusher?

Typical assessment duties include brittle to medium-hard raw materials and agglomerates, for example in fertiliser or mineral processes. Hardness, moisture, abrasiveness and target product distribution must be evaluated before selection.

How does a cage crusher differ from a hammer crusher?

A cage crusher uses several impact stages between counter-rotating cages; a hammer crusher uses hammers, breaker plates and often a grate. Selection follows material behaviour, feed size and required product.

What is needed for a reliable quote?

Send material data, size distribution, maximum feed size, target size, throughput, moisture, operating time and installation conditions. A trial may be appropriate when material behaviour is unknown.
