Jaw crushers are typically used as primary crushers, or the first step in the process of reducing rock. They typically crush using compression. The rock is dropped between two rigid pieces of metal, one of which then move inwards towards the rock, and the rock is crushed because it has a lower breaking point than the opposing metal piece.
Jaw crusher movement is obtained by using a pivot point located at one end of the “swing jaw”, and an eccentric motion located at the opposite end.
