How Jaw Crushers Work
Jaw crushers reduce large, hard materials by compressing them between two heavy jaw plates: one fixed jaw and one moving jaw. Material is fed into the top of the crushing chamber, where the moving jaw repeatedly presses it against the fixed jaw, breaking it into smaller pieces by pressure and fracture.
As the material becomes smaller, gravity moves it downward through the tapered crushing zone until it reaches the set discharge size and exits at the bottom. This simple mechanical action makes jaw crushers ideal for coarse size reduction of rocks, minerals, ceramics, glass, metals, construction materials, and other brittle or hard samples before further grinding, milling, or analysis.
Dust Free Cyclone Options
A cyclone collection system helps create a dust-free crushing process by pulling airborne fines and loose particles away from the jaw crusher during operation. As material is crushed, fine dust can escape from the discharge area and handling points; the cyclone uses airflow to capture those particles and separate them from the air stream before they spread into the lab or production area. This improves operator cleanliness, reduces housekeeping, helps protect nearby equipment, and can recover valuable material that would otherwise be lost as dust.
For applications involving dry, brittle, abrasive, or hazardous powders, cyclone collection also supports a cleaner, more controlled process from crushing through final collection.

Fine Jaw Crushers, Jaw Crushers
BB 50 Jaw Crusher
The BB 50 is the smallest model of the RETSCH jaw crusher series and has been specially designed for sample preparation in the laboratory. The compact machine fits on any laboratory bench and offers safe and convenient handling.
This jaw crusher series is available in 8 different sizes. Throughput and final fineness depend on the crusher type, selected gap width, and breaking properties of the sample material.
Robust design, simple handling, and cleaning are the features of the RETSCH jaw crusher models. Small amounts of sample are processed batchwise; for larger amounts, the crushers can be operated continuously.
