The working principles of impact crushers and cone crushers are different. Cone crushers use the principle of lamination crushing to crush raw materials, while impact crushers use the impact force generated by high-speed operation to crush raw materials.

The materials suitable for impact crushers and cone crushers are also different. Impact crushers are suitable for soft or medium-hard raw materials with a compressive strength below 360Mpa, while cone crushers are suitable for processing hard and higher hardness materials, such as basalt, granite, etc.

The finished product sizes of impact crushers and cone crushers are different. The finished product of impact crusher usually has a good cubic shape, excellent particle shape, and meets the use standards; while the finished product of cone crusher contains needle-shaped particles, and further processing is required for high-demand engineering project requirements.

The main crushing components of impact crushers and cone crushers are different. Impact crushers mainly crush raw materials through impact plates, while cone crushers mainly crush raw materials through concave surfaces and cloaks.

There are also differences in the prices of impact crushers and cone crushers. Due to differences in output, processing capacity, wear-resistant parts configuration, etc., in the long run, the price of cone crusher is higher than that of impact crusher.
