Encyclopedia > Rock Crusher

A rock crusher is a crusher designed to take large rocks as input and to produce small rocks or rock dust as output. They are used to produce rock fill material for such uses as landscaping and erosion control.


They are typically very large, very loud, and produce a considerable quantity of dust. Most installations are therefore in rural areas.
