Which cone crusher is the best for granite rock crushing?

The complete crushing production line usually includes vibrating feeder, jaw crusher, cone crusher, vibrating screen, belt conveyor and central electrical control system. We can design production lines with different output by combining different types of equipment. The rock crushing plant has been successfully applied in the mining, metallurgy, building materials, highway, railway and water conservancy industries.

Cone crushers are used in a variety of industries, including mining and construction. There are three main types of cone crushers:
1. Compound Cone Crusher. A compound cone crusher is made up of two cones, one being fixed and the other floating. The fixed cone does not move when crushing material, while the floating cone moves upwards and downwards. Compound cone crushers are generally used for secondary or tertiary crushing purposes.
2. Single Cylinder Hydraulic Cone Crusher. A single cone crusher is similar to a compound cone crusher, except that there is only one cone instead of two. Single cone crushers are typically used for secondary or tertiary crushing purposes.
3. Multi-Cylinder Hydraulic Cone Crusher. Multi-cylinder hydraulic cone crushers have multiple cylinders (usually three) and can provide increased power and productivity compared to other types of cone crushers. They are typically used for secondary or tertiary crushing purposes.

As we all know, granite is a kind of hard rock, which is difficult to be crushed and has high hardness. If we want to get the granular shape materials from granite, we need to use the cone crusher. So which cone crusher is the best for granite rock crushing?
First of all, we should choose the right type of cone crusher according to the material characteristics of granite. For example, if the compressive strength of granite is less than 100Mpa, we can choose spring cone crusher or hydraulic cone crusher. If the compressive strength is between 100-200Mpa, we can choose single-cylinder hydraulic cone crusher or multi-cylinder hydraulic cone crusher. If the compressive strength is higher than 200Mpa, we can choose sand making machine.
Secondly, we should pay attention to the feeding size and discharging size of cone crusher. The feeding size should be controlled within the range thatcone crushercan handle so as not to overload it, while for Discharging size,we usually use Vibrating screen to grade materials firstly and then send them into different stock piles according to their particle sizes through belt conveyor so as to avoid repeated crushing.
Last but not least, in order to get high quality granular shape products with good grain shape and low flakiness content ,we need not only choose suitable type of cone crusher but also need to choose suitable crushing process. For example, we can adopt the two-stage crushing process in which the first stage is coarse crushing and the second stage is fine crushing.
The above are some tips for you about choosing cone crusher for granite rock crushing, hoping that these tips can be helpful for you.
