1. PAINPOINT DRIVEN OPENING

Managing an iron ore crushing plant presents distinct challenges that directly impact your bottom line. Are you contending with:
Excessive Downtime: Unplanned stoppages for liner changes, blockages, or mechanical failures, costing thousands per hour in lost production.
Unscheduled Maintenance Costs: Premature wear on crusher components from abrasive hematite or magnetite, leading to frequent, costly part replacements and labor.
Inconsistent Throughput & Product Size: Fluctuations in feed size or hardness causing bottlenecks, reducing overall plant efficiency and failing to meet precise sinter or pellet feed specifications.
High Energy Consumption: Inefficient crushing chambers and drives that escalate operational costs, especially under continuous, highload operation.
System Integration Headaches: New equipment that fails to interface correctly with existing screening and conveying systems, creating installation delays and operational silos.

The central question for plant managers is: how can you achieve reliable tonnage, predictable maintenance intervals, and optimal costpertonne in your primary crushing stage?

2. PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Our engineered solution is a Primary Gyratory Crusher Station specifically configured for iron ore processing. This turnkey module is designed as the first critical size reduction stage in a comminution circuit.

Operational Workflow:
1. Feed Intake: Runofmine (ROM) iron ore is delivered via haul trucks to a robust dump hopper with grizzly sections to bypass subcrusher fines.
2. Primary Crushing: Material is fed into the gyratory crusher, where a mantle gyrates within a concave bowl, applying compressive force to reduce ore to a nominal 150250mm product.
3. ​​Discharge & Conveyance: Crushed ore is discharged onto a heavyduty apron or belt feeder, which regulates flow onto the main plant conveyor for transport to secondary crushing or stockpiling.

Application Scope: Ideal for highcapacity (5,000 12,000+ tph) iron ore mining operations processing hard and abrasive ores. Suitable for both greenfield installations and retrofit upgrades.

Limitations: Not designed as a finished product crusher; requires secondary/tertiary stages for fine crushing. Site requires adequate foundation engineering and feed system compatibility.
