H7800

a new Hydrocone® crusher with hi-tech strength

SANDVIK ROCK PROCESSING


A BIG DECISION
Investing in a new crusher is always a big decision.
Since your crusher does not operate as an independent
unit, but is often part of a production chain containing
many different links, buying a new piece of equipment
requires careful consideration – not least regarding its
efficiency and economy. That’s why we at Sandvik Rock
Processing have gone right back to the drawing board
to design a new Hydrocone ® crusher, to produce a
machine which delivers really significant benefits over
and above those of your existing equipment. H7800 is
the first of a new generation of crushers with what we call
‘hi-tech strength’.
SIZE ISN’T EVERYTHING
In the past it was assumed that the performance of a
crusher could be measured in relation to its weight.
A heavy crusher was synonymous with a heavy-duty
crusher. However, the arrival of H7800 challenges this
assumption, so mine and plant owners and operators
can afford to think differently. H7800 gives enhanced
performance in relation to size and weight. It looks like
a medium-sized crusher, yet it has all the strength and
power of a much larger crusher. So, it’s time to accept
that size isn’t everything after all.

Increasing
PRODUCTIVITY
When your goal is to increase productivity
at an existing site, there are several
important factors to take into consideration:
the cost of new equipment and how to
install it, versus the increase in productivity
it will deliver. Being a neat, compact
crusher, H7800 fits in nicely where space
is limited, and it gives you a high level
of performance in relation to its size. It
therefore provides a cost-effective boost
to production at your existing operation,
enabling you to utilize existing infrastructure
such as foundations, buildings and material
handling arrangements.
THE RIGHT LEVEL OF PRODUCTION
Whilst a modern crusher enables you to boost
production, it obviously needs to be synchronised
with the rest of your plant or line. In terms of
production volume, H7800 lies between H8800 and
H6800 (Sandvik Hydrocone models or similar), giving
you levels of production that are highly efficient, with
excellent space/weight/performance ratios, yet not
overproducing in such a way as to create bottlenecks
in your downstream processes.
BETTER REDUCTION
In H7800, two important factors combine to give
greater reduction - new crushing chambers and the
automation system ASRi™. Power is used to improve
reduction rather than just increase capacity, so you
get a better quality product in relation to the energy
consumed. The product is simply more efficiently
reduced. Working in combination with the ASRi
crusher control system, circulating load is kept to
a minimum. Your crusher is always working at its
upper limit, giving you optimum performance whilst
preventing overloading.
 DESIGNING
H7800 from scratch
Why does H7800 look different from other
members of the Hydrocone® family and what
are the advantages of this new design?
The fact is that in addition to having all
the know-how and experience needed to
refine our Hydrocone crushers’ design, we
also use the latest advanced engineering
tools. So in creating H7800 our designers
were able to rethink the basic principles of
crusher design from scratch, developing a
different shape, applying new materials and
finishes, and strengthening the crusher’s
important points.
4 5
THE RESULT IS that in H7800 you get a lighter
weight crusher with hi-tech strength, i.e. strength in
all the right places. We put in 520 kW (700 hp) of
power and this fact, in combination with a greater
shaft travelling height (to facilitate the elimination of
tramp metal) accounts for its weighty bottom shell.
THE TOP MOUNTING of the hydraulic compo-
nents in the oil tanks also represents a new approach.
It makes servicing far more tidy as oil doesn’t spill.
In addition, the lubrication tank and the Hydroset
tank are divided into two separate units. This means
they can be placed in different locations, optimising
available space. A plexi-glass window has been fitted
in the oil tank making it easy to see oil flow and condition
and notice at a glance if the oil levels are low.
Sandvik as a leading innovator
For over 100 years we have been making crushers,
and for 30 of those, we have also been developing
crusher control systems to optimise the performance
of our crushers. With H7800, we demonstrate once
again that Sandvik is the leading innovator in the
field of rock processing, taking crusher design tech-
nology combined with advanced crusher control
to new heights. H7800 is a genuine innovation in
rock processing equipment from Sandvik, building
on the strength and robustness of our proven
Hydrocone® crushers.
WHAT CAN H7800
do for you?
• It can improve your production capacity. Thanks to
the new design described above, even if H7800 is not
a large crusher, it has strength in all the right places.
• It can handle the toughest minerals processing
applications in mines and processing plants. H7800
was specifically designed to operate 24 hours a day
in mining and aggregate applications, the toughest
job in the business. This is the best guarantee of the
crusher’s ability to handle heavy-duty applications.
• In designing this new crusher, operators’ feedback
has been taken into consideration. Easy maintenance
is an issue we take particularly seriously, hence the
positioning of the dump valve at the side of the
machine and the design of the oil tank, which is
made for easy servicing.
• Change wear and spare parts with minimum downtime.
For example, the liners of H7800 do not require any
backing material like plastic epoxy or zinc. This saves
the time usually spent mixing, pouring and waiting for
the curing to take place, whilst also increasing safety
for your maintenance staff.
• H7800 generates downstream process savings
in cost and efficiency, thanks to better reduction,
promoted by a new chamber design and by the use
of ASRi crusher control system.
• It handles tramp metal more effectively. H7800 is
designed for a greater shaft travelling height and
this facilitates the relieving of incidental tramp metal.
ASRi ensures that the shaft is returned at the right
moment to its former position.
• Gives you enhanced control and protects your
capital investments. H7800 comes with a built-in
TIMS™ (Tank Instrumentation Monitoring System) -
a small control unit designed to check lubrication,
temperature and oil flow. TIMS automatically
watches all functions like switching on cooling fans
and heaters when necessary. It also eliminates most
of the local installation work and provides enhanced
control with a full factory guarantee.
• Enhanced performance through compatibility
with our ASRi crusher control system. Used
in combination with H7800, ASRi gives you a
continual flow of information and constantly makes
adjustments leading to more efficient production. For
example, it adjusts crusher settings automatically in
order to compensate for the liner wear; it ensures the
highest possible crusher performance. Pressure and
power in relation to load are automatically adjusted
to suit rock properties, moisture etc. All influencing
conditions are taken into consideration, 24 hours per
day, keeping your crusher pushed up to its 100%
performance, automatically.
