Maintenance Tips For Improving Cone Crusher Efficiency

Cone crusher is a widely used crushing equipment in industries such as metallurgy, mining, chemical engineering, cement, etc. Its service life directly affects the efficiency of work. Therefore, correct maintenance and upkeep is an important means to extend the service life of the machine and reduce costs. Below, we will share some maintenance tips for cone crushers to make your equipment more durable.

Bearing maintenance

The cone crusher has significant wear and tear during use, and the bearing is a component that is prone to problems. Therefore, it is very important to maintain the bearings well and increase the service life of the crusher bearings.

• 1. Regularly check the lubrication of the bearings, replace the lubricating oil in a timely manner, and ensure sufficient lubrication of the bearings.
• 2. Regularly check the temperature of the bearings, and if the bearings overheat, immediately stop the machine for inspection.
• 3. Regularly clean the bearings to prevent dust and debris from entering the interior of the bearings and affecting their normal operation.
• 4. Check the sealing of the bearings to ensure good sealing and avoid lubricating oil leakage.

Lubrication maintenance

Attention should be paid to the lubrication of the cone crusher equipment, always paying attention to and promptly lubricating the friction surface to ensure the normal operation of the cone crusher and extend the service life of the equipment. The lubricating grease added to the casing accounts for 50-70% of the volume and must be replaced at least once every three months.

Daily maintenance

To ensure that the cone crusher is in good technical condition, can be put into operation at any time, reduce downtime, improve the utilization rate of the crusher, reduce wear and tear of the crusher, and extend the service life of the crusher, regular maintenance of the cone crusher is very important.

• 1. Regularly check whether the connecting bolts of each part of the crusher are loose and whether there are cracks, and promptly repair or replace them.
• 2. Check the belt of the crusher for wear, looseness, etc., and adjust or replace it in a timely manner.
• 3. Regularly check whether the electrical system of the crusher is normal and whether there are any short circuits, and promptly eliminate faults.
• 4. Regularly check whether the safety protection device of the crusher is intact and repair or replace it in a timely manner.

In summary, the maintenance and upkeep of the cone crusher is very important, which can extend the service life of the machine, reduce maintenance costs, and improve production efficiency. Just pay attention to the above details to make your device more durable.

6 Major Structures Of Multi-Cylinder Hydraulic Cone Crusher

Hydraulic cone crusher is the key equipment for fine crushing operation in large and medium-sized mine dressing plants. It has the characteristics of high production capacity, small product size, stable operation and reliable performance, and is widely used in fine crushing operations.

6 Major Structures Of Multi-Cylinder Hydraulic Cone Crusher

• 1. Multi-cylinder structure
• 2. Fixed shaft structure
• 3. Hydraulic adjustment discharge port
• 4. Labyrinth seal structure

Attentions In The Use Of Multi-Cylinder Hydraulic Cone Crusher

• 1. The feeding size is not allowed to exceed the maximum feeding size
• 2. The discharge opening is not allowed to be smaller than the minimum discharge opening size of the corresponding cavity type
• 3. The feeding should fill the cavity and evenly
• 4. The operating load is generally 75%~90%
• 5. Strictly control the moisture content of raw material
• 6. Avoid jumping of the support sleeve
• 7. Control the temperature of lubricating oil

How To Choose Single-Cylinder And Multi-Cylinder Hydraulic Cone Crusher?

Currently, cone crusher is one of the most widely used mining machinery and equipment. With the development of the market, there are many types of cone crushers at home and abroad, and the performance of each type of crusher is not the same. At present, spring cone crusher and hydraulic cone crusher are more commonly used, and hydraulic cone crusher is divided into single-cylinder hydraulic cone crusher and multi-cylinder hydraulic cone crusher .

In the following part, we mainly introduce the differences between single-cylinder hydraulic cone crusher and multi-cylinder hydraulic cone crusher and their features.

In addition to the structural differences (such as main structure, components and spare parts) between single-cylinder hydraulic cone crusher and multi-cylinder hydraulic cone crusher, the main differences are in the following aspects:

• 1. Different discharge opening adjustment methods
• 2. Different Ways To Release The Iron And Clear The Cavity
• 3. Comparison Of Lubrication System
• 4. Comparison Of Parts That Provide Crushing Force

Operating Rules Of Cone Crusher

In a stone processing line, cone crusher is generally used as secondary or fine crushing equipment. It is particularly suitable for crushing hard or super hard materials. To keep the cone crusher running normally and efficiently, there are some operating rules the operators should follow. Here we introduce some proper ways to operate cone crusher.

Dos Before Starting Cone Crusher

• Putting on protective articles, such as the labor suit, safety helmet, gloves etc.
• Make sure that the screws in each part are tight and in good condition.
• Make sure that there are no obstacles around the motor.
• Check if there is any rock or sundries in the crusher, if there is, the operator should clean it immediately.
• Make sure the tightness of the V-belt and tighten the screws.
• Check if the discharge opening reach to requirement, if not, adjust the opening.
• Make sure the power supply is normal and make sure the protection system is in good condition.

Dos In The Operation

• The raw materials should be fed into jaw crusher evenly and continuously. Besides, the max feed size of materials should be under the allowed ranges. Once found blocks in the feed opening, the operator should stop the feeder and remove the materials blocked.
• Make sure no wood or other foreign bodies enter the cone crusher.
• Make sure there is no blocking in the discharge opening and adjust the discharge opening size timely.

Dos Before Starting Cone Crusher

• Before stopping the crusher, the operator should stop the feeder first and wait until all the raw materials in the feeder fed into the crusher.
• When there is a sudden power cut, the operator should turn off the switch immediately and clean up the raw materials left in the crusher.
• After stopping the crusher, the operator should check each part of the cone crusher. If found any problem, the operator should deal with it immediately.
