Output Prediction of Cone Crushers

Journal article, 1998

The output prediction of cone crushers has been focused on both by the aggregate producing industry and the mining industry as the demands for higher quality and lower costs increase. In this paper a method for prediction of cone crusher performance is presented. By using the method both product size distributions and total capacity can be predicted. By combining these results a Crusher Performance Map (CPM) is obtained. The CPM is a description of crusher performance over a wide range of variation in the operational parameters. Therefore the CPM can be used for optimization and choice of operational machine parameters for an individual crusher as a part of a crushing plant. © 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
