Cone Crusher Overview
With its high efficient crushing capacity, low energy consumption and low maintenance cost, cone crusher has become an important equipment for processing ores and construction materials in various industries.
Features of Cone Crusher
- High-efficiency production: the design of cone crusher makes high crushing efficiency, and the dynamic cone rotates continuously in the crushing chamber, thus it can process harder materials efficiently.
- Low energy consumption and maintenance costs: the power consumption of the equipment is low, and due to its optimized structural design, the maintenance cost of the product is also more economical.
- Stable material particle size: the crushed material particle size is uniform, and presents a more ideal cubic shape, suitable for further processing and utilization.
- Uniform wear: the working surface of the moving cone wears evenly due to its rotating motion, which prolongs the service life of the equipment.
Working Principle of Cone Crusher
The gap between the moving cone and the fixed cone in the crushing chamber is utilized to squeeze, shear and bend the materials, thus realizing crushing. The moving cone is driven by the eccentric shaft to rotate, and the materials are crushed through the gap between the moving cone and the fixed cone after entering the crushing chamber. Since the crushing method of cone crusher is mainly through crushing and shearing, it can effectively reduce the dust produced by the material in the crushing process.
Application Fields of Cone Crusher
- Mining field: widely used in the crushing of metal ores and non-metallic ores, such as iron ore, copper ore, bauxite and so on. It is suitable for crushing medium hardness and harder ores.
- Construction industry: used in the crushing of building stone, such as granite, sandstone, limestone, etc., to provide a variety of granularity of construction sand and gravel.
- Metallurgical industry: In metallurgical industry, cone crusher is used to process metal ores and provide suitable particle size for smelting process.
- Cement industry: As a part of cement production, cone crusher is often used for crushing cement raw materials to ensure that the particle size of raw materials meets the production requirements.
- Sand and gravel industry: In the production of sand and gravel, cone crusher provides high-quality stone materials to meet different construction needs.
