Enduring Power: The Cedarapids Model 1636 Jaw Crusher – A Stalwart of Primary Crushing

Dans le monde exigeant de la production de granulats et du traitement des minéraux, reliability and robust performance are paramount. Few machines embody these qualities as enduringly as the Cedarapids Model 1636 Curseur de mâchoire. Depuis des décennies, this specific model has served as a cornerstone for primary crushing applications worldwide, earning a reputation for simplicity, durabilité, and consistent output.

A Legacy of Robust Design

Introduced during an era when heavy machinery was built to last generations, le 1636 inherited Cedarapids' renowned engineering principles:
Sturdy Frame Construction: Fabricated from high-quality steel plate welding techniques (common for its era), its frame provided exceptional rigidity to withstand the immense forces generated during rock crushing.
Proven Overhead Eccentric Mechanism: The powerful overhead eccentric design drove a massive forged steel pitman shaft and robust bearings – engineered specifically to handle heavy shock loads without failure.
Generous Feed Opening: True to its designation (often interpreted as 16" x 36"), le 1636 featured a substantial feed opening capable of accepting large run-of-mine rock or blasted quarry stone efficiently.
Chambre de concassage profonde: Its deep symmetrical chamber design promoted excellent nip angles and efficient reduction of feed material down to manageable sizes for secondary processing.

Core Specifications Defining Performance

The Model 1636's specifications cemented its role as a primary workhorse:
Ouverture d'alimentation: Environ 16 pouces de large par 36 pouces de long (406 mm x 914 mm) – ideal for medium-to-large sized feed material.
Taille maximale d'alimentation: Capable of handling rocks up to roughly 14-15 pouces (355-380 mm) in diameter depending on material characteristics.

Capacité de concassage: While variable based on material type (dureté, densité), gradation des aliments, and closed side setting (CSS), typical capacities ranged significantly – often cited between 90 à plus 300 tons per hour in practical applications with appropriate settings and conditions.
Vitesse de l'arbre excentrique: Operated at a relatively moderate speed (autour 250-300 RPM), optimizing crushing efficiency and reducing wear compared to higher-speed designs.
Réglage de décharge réglable: A critical feature enabled via adjustable wedges or shims at the discharge point (the bottom of the crushing chamber), allowing operators precise control over final product size.
