Jaw crusher for medium-hard to hard materials
In laboratory settings or small-scale production, precise sample preparation is crucial. Handling tough substances like ores, ceramics, and construction materials demands reliable equipment to ensure consistent particle size reduction.

Efficiently crush tough materials
The Jaw Crusher BB 250 from Retsch is designed to handle large feed sizes up to 120 x 90 mm, with a throughput of up to 300 kg/h. This crusher offers a stepless gap width setting from 0-30 mm, allowing for particle sizes down to 2 mm. Its robust design and continuous gap width adjustment ensure optimized size reduction, making it suitable for preliminary crushing of tough and brittle materials like cement clinker, ceramics, drill core, and silicon. The jaw crusher features a removable hopper with splash protection, a connection for dust extraction, and a scale that indicates jaw wear. It is available with various materials for grinding tools, including manganese steel and tungsten carbide, to prevent sample contamination. The ergonomic design allows for easy cleaning and operation, while the automated sample divider combination unit ABP ensures reproducibility in sample preparation.
