Cone Crusher: Ideal for Secondary and Fine Crushing

Although the processing procedures of different kinds of sand vary with each other in complexity, almost all sand processing include the following three stages: sand crushing, sand washing and screening. Different physical and chemical properties can be produced in accordance with the requirements of customers. With regard to sand crushing, jaw crusher and cone crusher are frequently employed. Jaw crushers have been used since 1970s and typically consist of a fixed crushing jaw and a moveable jaw. They can be used to crush a variety of materials ranging from rocks and recycled iron. Jaw crusher is well adapted to deal with the hardest materials in any demanding environment.

Cone crusher is a stationary crusher ideal for secondary and fine crushing. Marked by excellent performance and high stability, cone crushers are frequently used to turn coarse materials into fine particles. There is a moving cone and a fixed cone to grind sources materials such materials as hard rock and gravel. Then the crushed materials go through a sifter and reach the conveyor in the end.

Modern cone crushers are designed with the concept of laminated crushing to improve grinding frequency and ensure cubic-shaped, well-proportioned final products. In addition, the inner protection device ensures that any unbreakable materials in the chamber will be released from the opening automatically and will not obstruct the crushing process. And the lubrication system guarantees consistent and reliable operation of the cone crusher, which is crucial to reducing production costs and to ensuring the high quality of the final products. What is more, all segments of a cone crusher can be dissembled and cleaned so it is relatively easy to maintain and fix the machine.

There are two types of cone crushers that are commonly seen in the sand processing industry. Spring cone crusher is has been widely used for several decades. In general, spring cone crushers mainly consist of feeder, two cones, spring, frame, pulley, shaft, gear, mantle, motor and distributor plate. Driven by motor, two cones and mantle rotate along with the shaft to crush source materials into smaller sizes. The power, capacity and dimension of spring cone crushers may vary and should be in line with the production requirements.

SMH series cone crusher is one of the most cutting-edge cone crushers nowadays. It not only improves the production capacity and crushing efficiency, but also can be used to process materials with medium hardness or higher. It has been proved that hydraulic cone crusher functions well in fine crushing and super fine crushing. Generally speaking, hydraulic cone crushers are improved versions of spring cone crushers and are capable of greatly promoting productivity and efficiency. It is believed that hydraulic cone crushers are the most ideal machine for large quarry and mining companies.
