<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n\u201cA particularly effective kinematic of the oscillating roll with constant stroke in the entire crusher cavity allows for a higher reduction ratio and more effective use of crushing energy,\u201d he says. \u201cThe reduction ratio of 1:10 potentially allows for elimination of secondary crushing stages, depending on the material characteristics.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In addition, the high moment of inertia of the roll and flywheels contributes to accumulated crushing energy, reducing the power requirements and effectively compensating load peaks in the comminution process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Key design features of the ERC\u00ae are compactness and robustness. Due to its low profile, the crusher offers a construction height up to 50% lower than other hard rock primary crushers. This compact design and the reduced number of components simplifies transportation, installation and maintenance, and also lessens CAPEX costs by up to 10%. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The integrated pre-screen allows for efficient bypassing of fines, boosting crusher capacity as well as reducing energy consumption by up to 40% and increasing liner life in the process. Bypassing fines also reduces the risk of compacting and overloading of the crushing chamber.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cMine operators and quarry owners can also benefit from the higher service life of wear elements on the roll,\u201d says Kokoroyanis. \u201cThe back-turning of the roll occurring during the crushing process distributes the loads over the entire circumference. This prevents local wear zones and results in uniform wear.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n With impact resistance and wear in mind, the large chunks of feed material in the crushing chamber do not fall directly onto the mounted working element, but hit the hood, which is significantly more resistant to such loads than other components. That is a key advantage over many conventional primary crushers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cAs more and more mine operators become aware of the benefits of this innovative technology, we are seeing a great deal of interest in the ERC\u00ae range. We have already sold several units over the past four years, with some being installed in Laos, Asia, and, we hope, soon in Angola,\u201d concludes Kokoroyanis. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The energy-intensive nature of comminution processes has led to FLSmidth\u2019s efforts to develop more energy efficient equipment. One such technology is the patented Eccentric Roll Crusher (ERC\u00ae) which, through its innovative design, not only reduces energy consumption in the primary crushing of hard rock, but also offers increased throughput and reduced wear.
