Distinguishing types of cone crushers

There are many types on the market today. cone crusher, each type is suitable for different requirements and work characteristics. Common types of cone crushers include: spring cone, mechanical cone, hydraulic cone, semi-hydraulic cone, destructive cone, fine cone and sand cone. Let's learn in detail about distinguishing the types cone crusher and how to distinguish them in this article.

1. Distinguish cone crushers according to the drive system

a. Cone crusher using ball bearings

Cylindrical roller bearing cone crusher has ball bearing drive system, oil lubrication, helps increase service life and reduce maintenance costs.

Advantage:

• Good heat resistance.
• Long life.
• Low lubricant consumption.

Disadvantages:

• High investment cost.

b. Copper silver cone crusher

Copper silver cone crusher is low cost but also comes with some disadvantages in performance and service life.

Advantage:

• Low cost.

Disadvantages:

• Low heat resistance.
• High consumption of lubricant.
• Lower life than ball bearings.

2. Classification of cone crusher according to discharge slot adjustment type

The discharge slot of cone crusher determines the size of the output product. The hydraulic system plays an important role in maintaining pressure and adjusting the discharge slot.

Cone crushers can be divided into 3 types based on hydraulic system:

a. Spring cone crusher

The spring cone crusher (Symon) developed in the 1920s is still used today. manufacture and widely used.

Advantage:

• Simple system, low cost.

Disadvantages:

• Difficult to adjust the exhaust slot.
• Unable to control discharge gap opening when crushing cone is worn.
• No automatic anti-clogging capability.

b. Semi-hydraulic cone crusher

Semi-hydraulic cone crusher uses hydraulic system to adjust discharge slot or fix machine frame.

Advantage:

• Improved exhaust slot adjustment.
• Capable of handling congested material.

Disadvantages:

• No control over exhaust slot completely.
• No automatic anti-clogging capability.

c. Fully hydraulic cone crusher

Machine cone crusher Fully hydraulic is the optimal choice for projects requiring high performance.

Advantage:

• Hydraulically adjusted discharge slot.
• Automatic anti-clogging.
• Displays discharge gap opening and wear level of grinding jaws.

Disadvantages:

• Professional operation required.

d. Classification by number of hydraulic cylinders

Machine cone crusher Hydraulics can be single cylinder or multi-cylinder. Multi-cylinder machines usually have better load capacity, longer life and are easier to maintain.

3. Classification of cone crusher according to crushing cavity configuration

Cone crushers can be classified based on crushing cavity configuration to suit each material type and production requirements.

a. Stick destroyer

Machine cone crusher The crusher has a sloping crushing chamber, which helps to process materials with large input sizes. However, the output rock quality is not high, and it is often necessary to combine it with a VSI machine to ensure rock quality.

b. Insects

Medium cone crusher is commonly used in crushing stations, producing better quality stone products than cone crusher.

c. Sand dunes

Special sand cone crusher artificial sand production, can withstand materials with high hardness and abrasion. However, VSI machine still produces sand with better shape.

Depending on the requirements of product quality and material type, users can choose the appropriate cone crusher such as spring cone, hydraulic cone or semi-hydraulic cone. Understanding the advantages and disadvantages of each machine type help you make the optimal decision for your work. Hopefully this article will help customers better understand how to distinguish between types of cone crushers.
