What is mobile stone crusher plant?
Cone crusher is a high-efficiency, high-power crushing equipment, widely used in mining, metallurgy, construction, chemical industry and other industries. The following is a detailed introduction to cone crusher:
Definition of cone crusher
Cone crusher is a mechanical equipment that realizes material crushing through rotational motion and lamination crushing principle. Its main features include:
- High crushing force: It can crush high-hardness ores and rocks.
- High efficiency and energy saving: High crushing efficiency and relatively low energy consumption.
- Uniform particle size: The particle size distribution of the crushed material is uniform, which is convenient for subsequent processing.
We will customize a suitable mining or concrete solution for you
How does cone crusher Work?
The working principle of cone crusher is as follows:
- Rotational motion: The motor drives the main shaft to rotate through the pulley or coupling, and the main shaft drives the eccentric sleeve, so that the crushing cone swings around the fixed point.
- Lamination crushing: The crushing wall of the crushing cone sometimes approaches and sometimes leaves the fixed mortar wall, so that the material is constantly squeezed and ground between the two, and finally achieves the crushing effect.
- Particle size adjustment: By adjusting the size of the discharge port, the discharge particle size can be controlled to meet different production needs.
3. Main uses
Cone crushers are widely used in the following fields:
- Mining industry: crushing iron ore, copper ore, limestone, granite and other ores.
- Metallurgical industry: used for ore crushing before metal smelting.
- Construction industry: production of aggregates and road building materials.
- Chemical industry: crushing refractory materials, silicates, etc.
How many types of cone crushers?
Cone crushers can be divided into many types according to different classification standards. The following are the main classification methods and their characteristics:
1. Classification by crushing force maintenance method
Features:
Spring is used as an overload protection device. When uncrushable materials enter the crushing chamber, the spring will be compressed to protect the equipment from damage.
Applicable scenarios:
Mainly used in small and medium-sized mines and construction industries, suitable for scenes with low material hardness.
Disadvantages:
Small crushing force, low output, gradually replaced by hydraulic cone crushers.
