Proper installation is key Feed and discharge arrangements can greatly affect crusher reliability and performance. Basic recommendations are: Proper feeding will result in the following: • Position spider arm in line with truck discharge. The arm will split material flow into the crushing chamber for more even feed distribution • Increased crushing chamber wear life • Construct a stone box around the spider so material discharge from truck dumping falls on dead stone bed before entering the crushing chamber • Avoid direct impact of dumped material on the spider cap or mainshaft assembly • Scale-up...

Capacities Open side settings of discharge opening The above capacities are based on an assumed feed where 100% of the feed passes 80% of the feed opening. 80% of the feed passes 60% of the feed topsize, and 50% of the feed passes a sieve size that is 10% of the topsize. The capacities are for feed materials with a bulk density of 1.6 metric tons per cubic meter (100 pounds per cubic foot). All capacities are calculated at a maximum throw for each respective machine. All capacities are relative to individual application. Material characteristics, feed size, distribution, work index, percent moisture,...
