ThyssenKrupp Gyratory Crusher Product Range

The design of the gyratory crushers

and jaw gyratory crushers is based
on more than one hundred years of
experience of ThyssenKrupp in the
manufacture of these machines.
Changing mining and processing
methods demand (besides new
materials and design methods)
a continual development of the
products. ThyssenKrupp gyratory
crushers represent todays leading
crushing technology. They are
designed for high performances
at low operating and maintenance
costs.

Gyratory Crusher

Working principle
The main shaft (B) of the crusher
is radially guided in the spider
bushing (A) and in the inner eccentric bushing (G). The thrust bearing
assembly (J) arranged on the piston
of the hydraulic cylinder (K) ensures
the axial support of the main shaft.

The rotation of the drive motor is

transmitted via the transmission
gear (H) to the eccentric bushing (G).
This rotating eccentric bushing is
generating the gyrating motion
of the main shaft (B) which is
characteristic of gyratory crushers.

C

D

Consequently, the crushing gap

between the stationary concaves
in the crusher housing and the
gyrating crushing mantle changes
continuously.
The feed material that enters the
crushing chamber from the top
is continuously crushed between
the crushing tools (C) as it falls by
gravitation until it exits the crushing
chamber at the bottom (F).

H
K

Gap increase caused by wear is

compensated by hydraulic lifting
of the main shaft.
It also serves as overload
protection when tramp iron finds its
way into the crushing chamber.
Restart under load in an emergency is supported by a heavy duty
drive train using a bevel gear set
with cyclo-palloid toothing. The spiral bevel gear allows the installation
of drive motors with high ratings.
Main shaft jumping under adverse crushing conditions is
avoided by a pressurized
hydraulic system ensuring
permanent contact of the individual
thrust bearing discs.

Jaw Gyratory Crusher

Working principle
Large Feed opening
3080 x1675mm

Special feature of the jaw gyratory

crusher is the specific shape of the
feed opening, which is extended to
one side. The feed opening is normally toothed, and together with the
upper mantle it forms the primary
crushing zone. Further crushing of
the roughly pre-crushed material
takes place in the lower part of the
crushing chamber, where the specified final grain size is produced.
Jaw gyratory crushers are designed
to handle substantially bigger feed
lumps than the comparable size of
the gyratory crusher with the same
mantle diameter.
Jaw gyratory crushers have higher
crushing ratios and a low tendency
to get clogged in the feed area as a
result of bridging.

Crusher Drives

ThyssenKrupp gyratory crushers

are driven directly by a multipledisc steel clutch with intermediate
shaft and a safety coupling. The
multiple-disc steel clutch compensates geometric deviations
between motor and transmission
gear shaft, while the hydraulic
safety coupling protects the
crusher motor against overload
when uncrushable foreign matter
is fed to the crusher.
The intermediate shaft allows
the disassembly of the
transmission gear without
dismantling the motor.

This compact and solid unit
consists of a control cabinet with
a touch screen terminal and
will be integrated into the local

values are important operation
parameters being measured on
the crusher, on relating units and
the environment. The touch

out by means of up-to-date
methods allowing a material
characterization and based
hereon the right choice of a
suitable crusher.
Furthermore, by these basic
analyses the best possible
adaptation of the crusher can
be ascertained, like e.g. the
correct sizing of individual
components by means of the
finite element analysis.
The computed values will then
be field-tested using a newly

diagnosis system which allows
the control of the most
important operating data.
