TLDR for Buyers: Baichy's PF series impact crushers deliver 15 to 800 tons per hour of well-shaped crushed material at factory-direct pricing. For limestone, dolomite, and medium-hard rock (≤120 MPa), a PF impact crusher gives you the best cubic particle shape in its class — typically 15,000to85,000 depending on model and configuration. This guide covers all 6 PF models, how to choose the right one, and what affects the final price.

1. What Is a PF Series Impact Crusher?
The PF (Horizontal Shaft Impact) crusher uses a high-speed rotor with blow bars to hurl material against impact plates. Unlike jaw crushers that squeeze rock, impact crushers shatter it through kinetic energy — producing a high percentage of cubic-shaped aggregate with low flakiness (<10%).
Where it fits in your plant:
• Secondary crusher after a jaw crusher in a two-stage circuit
• Shaping crusher after a cone crusher in a three-stage hard-rock circuit
• Standalone crusher for limestone quarries processing soft to medium material
Key applications:
• Aggregate production for concrete and asphalt
• Manufactured sand (M-sand) for construction
• Limestone crushing for cement plants
• Construction & demolition (C&D) waste recycling
2. PF Series Model Comparison (Complete Technical Specifications)
Choose your model by matching these three parameters: max feed size, required throughput, and installed motor power.
| Parameter | PF-1007 | PF-1010 | PF-1210 | PF-1214 | PF-1315 | PF-1520 |
| Rotor Diameter (mm) | 1000×700 | 1000×1050 | 1250×1050 | 1250×1400 | 1320×1500 | 1500×2000 |
| Feed Opening (mm) | 400×730 | 400×1080 | 400×1080 | 400×1430 | 860×1520 | 830×2040 |
| Max Feed Size (mm) | 250 | 300 | 300 | 350 | 500 | 700 |
| Capacity (tph) | 15-30 | 30-70 | 50-90 | 80-160 | 150-300 | 300-800 |
| Motor Power (kW) | 45 | 55-75 | 90-110 | 132-160 | 200-250 | 315-400 |
| Weight (tons) | 9.5 | 12 | 17 | 22 | 28 | 45 |
| Best For | Small quarries, trial runs | Mid-size aggregate | Concrete aggregate | High-volume limestone | Large quarries, shaping | Mega-projects, high output |
How to read this table: Start with your desired capacity (tph), then verify your largest feed material fits within the max feed size. For example, if you need 120 tph and your feed is 0–300mm, the PF-1214 is your match.
3. What Affects the Price of an Impact Crusher?
Factory-direct pricing for Baichy PF impact crushers varies based on six key factors. Understanding these helps you compare quotes accurately.
| Cost Factor | Impact on Price | What to Ask |
| Model / Capacity | Primary driver | Is this the right model for my future volume, not just current needs? |
| Motor Brand | ±5–10% | Siemens / ABB (premium) vs. domestic brand — worth it for 24/7 operation |
| Blow Bar Material | ±8–15% | Standard manganese vs. high-chrome martensitic vs. ceramic-insert |
| Control System | ±5–12% | Basic star-delta starter vs. VFD (variable frequency drive) with HMI |
| Spare Parts Package | ±5–10% | Initial spare blow bars, impact plates, and bearing set included? |
| Installation & Commissioning | ±10–20% | On-site supervision by Baichy engineers vs. remote guidance |
Baichy's factory-direct advantage: As a manufacturer with in-house foundry and machining, we control material costs and quality from raw casting to final assembly. This eliminates distributor markups and typically saves buyers 15–25% compared to trading company quotes.

4. How to Choose the Right Impact Crusher — 3-Step Decision Flow
Step 1: Define Your Material
| Material Type | Mohs Hardness | Recommended Approach |
| Limestone, Dolomite | 3–4 | PF impact crusher as standalone secondary — best value |
| River Pebble, Cobble | 5–6 | PF crusher after jaw crusher — good shape, moderate wear |
| Granite, Basalt | 6-7 | Cone crusher for secondary + PF/VSI crusher for shaping only |
| Concrete, Brick (C&D) | Mixed | PF crusher with reinforced rotor — excellent recovery rate |
| Iron Ore, Copper Ore | 5-6 | Consult Baichy engineers for ore-specific configuration |
Step 2: Consider Future Expansion
If you expect volume growth within 2–3 years, size up one model. A PF-1315 (150–300 tph) running at 50% capacity is more efficient and has lower wear-per-ton than a PF-1214 running at 90%.

7. Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the price of a PF impact crusher?
A: PF series crushers range from approximately 15,000∗∗(PF−1007,15–30tph)to∗∗85,000+ (PF-1520, 300–800 tph). The final price depends on motor brand, blow bar material grade, control system, and optional spares package. Contact us for a customized quote →
Q: How do I know which model fits my project?
A: Provide three numbers:
(1) your raw material type and maximum piece size
(2) your target output in tons per hour
(3) your required finished product sizes.
Our engineers will recommend the optimal model and circuit design within 24 hours.
Q: What's the difference between PF and CI series?
A: PF series is the classic horizontal impact crusher — proven, reliable, cost-effective. CI series features an upgraded rotor with higher precision, better particle shape, and is preferred for high-end manufactured sand applications. CI models cost 20–30% more upfront but deliver finer, more consistent sand gradation.
Q: Can an impact crusher handle hard rock like granite?
A: Yes, but with caveats. For granite (Mohs 6–7), we recommend using the impact crusher as a shaping crusher after a cone crusher — not as the main secondary unit. This extends blow bar life 2–3x while still delivering excellent cubic particle shape. See our complete drawbacks analysis →
