A mobile jaw crusher for ore processes rock on site, saving on transport costs. When choosing a model, consider the size of the jaw opening, the throughput and the particle size distribution of the final product; for rough terrain, choose tracked models; for flat sites, choose wheeled models. Also, check that the dealer has spare parts in stock, and opt for models with reinforced, wear-resistant jaw plates.
A mobile jaw crusher for ore is a reliable piece of equipment for mining sites, which processes hard rock on site, thereby reducing the costs of transporting raw materials. To choose the right model and make the right purchase decision, simply focus on the key operating parameters and the specific operating conditions of your site, without overpaying for unnecessary features.
First of all, assess the size of the feed opening – it must correspond to the maximum size of the ore pieces you plan to process. Also, pay attention to the throughput: it must be sufficient to handle the daily output, otherwise the equipment will become a bottleneck in the production chain. Don’t forget about the particle size distribution of the finished product, which can be adjusted by changing the gap between the jaws.
If your work sites are on rough terrain with poor roads, opt for tracked models — they are more stable and can get through where wheeled equivalents would get stuck. For work on flat sites involving frequent travel between sites, wheeled versions are suitable; they are more manoeuvrable and travel faster on tarmac roads.
The side plates are a consumable part, so check in advance whether your local dealer has spare parts in stock to avoid halting production for weeks whilst waiting for a delivery. Opt for models with reinforced cheeks made from wear-resistant steel — these extend the service life of the equipment and reduce the regular costs of replacing parts in the long term.
