For the purpose of mineral extraction when ore is excavated from earth the size of run of-mine ore can vary a lot between fines powders to big boulders of 1.5 m across. Moreover the feed can also be intermittent type in the form of dumpers feeding the crushing plant. The crusher at this stage is called primary crusher the main purpose of which is to give continuous feed to the plant down the line in a size convenient for further handling in the process plant. In the next stage further crushing may be required so as to ensure proper releasing of mineral from gangue.
