Crushing technology
More than just size reduction
For more than 100 years, we have been manufacturing crushing machines that are used for processing minerals in quarries and gravel pits and in the mining industry. Our products include state-of-the-art impact crushers and mills with horizontal and vertical shafts.
Our crushing machines can do more than reduce the size of particles in the processing of minerals, they can also be used for:
- Producing the desired grain-size curves
- Refining the grain shape (e.g., cubicity, crushed face count)
- Disintegrating composite materials through selective crushing
BHS crushers with vertical shafts transfer a very large amount of acceleration energy to the material on a defined trajectory. This places stress on every single particle upon impact. As a result, vertical shaft crushers are perfectly suited for the aggregates industry, where they are used to improve cubicity, produce high-quality sand or to achieve selective crushing effects. Further attractive advantages include excellent resistance to wear.
Choosing the right crushing machine always depends on the intended application. Trials are essential for gaining absolute certainty about the right choice. For this reason, BHS operates a processing technical center in Sonthofen with full-sized machines.
