Bucket elevator from Hongxing is sparkling in elevating sky
Bucket elevators can be used to handle a great variety of bulk materials. The
basic design involves a belt or chain driven around head and tail pulleys, which
carries buckets containing the material. This is carried out within a fully
sealed casing, providing efficient dust containment for materials posing dust
emission problems.
The advantage of using bucket elevators is that they are simple in
construction enabling maintenance and fault finding to be carried out on site
with ease.
Hongxing can competitively design and supply a large range of bucket elevator
types from heavy duty, high temperature, high tonnage applications to the
lighter duty applications.
Chain and Bucket Elevators
In special applications where high temperature, high tensions or corrosive
material properties exist, Hongxing can implement chain to elevate buckets
rather than belts.
Pulleys
Crowned, Diamond Lagged or Slatted pulleys can be supplied, esuring the most
suitable pulley for the application is selected.
Shaft Seal Arrangements
Based on the application, two main types of selas can be provided, either a
labyrinth seal or, in arduos circumstances, a tripple seal stuffing box.

Our earth is always calling for returning to Green Planet
Minister of Land and Resources recently held China International mining
Conference, said China is committed to scientific development, continue to
adhere to save low resources consumption, little environmental pollution and the
new road to industrialization. 'scientific development, promote green mining' is
a new path of industrialization in China mineral resources in the field of
concrete embodiment. Here, the green mining industry has become the most
eye-catching words, the reason for it visible, because it is China's economic
development, because it is in line with the direction that mining industry calls
for the requirements of energy conservation advocacy and environmental
protection development.
The so-called 'green mining' refers to the disturbance in the mine
environment is less than the premise of the capacity of the regional environment
to achieve optimal exploitation of mineral resources and the environment are
minimized. Implementation of green mining industry there are three stages:
First, the regional environment through the development of capacity or former
capacity evaluation and mine environmental assessment and disturbance, the
establishment of environmental evaluation index system and technical standards,
to develop green mining plan;
Second, but through technological innovation, optimize Process, to achieve
mining, dressing, smelting and refining process, a small disturbance, no poison
and less pollution;
Third, through the mining environmental management and ecological
restoration, to achieve minimum environmental disturbance and ecological
reconstruction optimization. We say that the development of green mining is the
voice of the times, China's economic development, it is not groundless, but
evidence-based.
Over the years, our economy has been growing rapidly though, but we also paid
a high price, called a lot of fees. Relevant data show that the country due to
ground subsidence due to mining to 180 locations with more than 1,600 pit
collapse, subsidence area of over 1150 square kilometers. The collapse of the
national mining subsidence disaster occurred nearly 40 cities, causing serious
damage to the 25 annual ground subsidence due to mining, the loss occurred up to
4 billion. The mining, ore mining 6 billion tons per year the amount of
disturbance of the Earth's environment, induced the mountain crack, collapse,
landslide, debris flow, earthquake and other geological disasters. These figures
are shocking, but in order to change this situation, to promote green mining
industry is the best way.

Adopting new screening methods to recall Green and Efficiency
Screening is a process of separating into groups of different products of
various sizes. Each group consists of products of approximately same size. The
mass, which remains, on a screen is called the oversize of the screen and the
material, which passes through the screen is, called the undersize.
The vibratory screen should be compulsorily enclosed from the screen
supporting platform level up to top of the screen. The enclosure should be
provided either with maintenance walkway around or without walkways with a
compact enclosure of the size of the screen only.
The screens in between the primary and the secondary crusher help in
separating the oversize. The oversize goes to the secondary crusher while the
undersize is discharged through a chute on to the same conveyor belt, which
receives the discharge from the secondary crusher. This saves considerable power
in the second crushing stage and also increases the capacity of the secondary
crusher, as it eliminates possible choking of material in the crusher,
particularly during wet weather or wet material.
Screening is generally classified into two types.
(i) Coarse screening, which is achieved through Grizzlies, Vibratory Screens,
Revolving Screens or Shaking Screens.
(ii) fine screening which is achieved through Vibrating screens, Shaking
Screens. Brief description of various screening technologies is given below.
Vibrating Screens save space and weight, and operate on little power because
the screening surface may be actuated by vibrating, gyrating or pulsating
movement of small amplitude, but at frequencies that normally exceed 3000 cycles
per minute.
Combination of frequency of vibration (speed) and amplitude (throw), affects
performance of any vibrating screen. A correct combination of slope and
direction of mechanism of rotation is vital for inclined screens. The larger the
opening the greater the amplitude needed for a screen. Vibrating screens are
mainly divided into two classes. Mechanically vibrated and electrically
vibrated.
The mechanical shaking screen comprises of a rectangular frame with
perforated steel or wire cloth. It is usually inclined and suspended on loose
rods or cables. They are used mainly for special tasks of coarse screening. The
screening media that are normally in use are of many classes. Following are some
of the commonly used media in the stone crushing industry.

Introduction and adjustment in the degenerating stage of construction equipment
Bulldozers, loaders, excavators and truck crane, etc. in use for some time,
often there will be deterioration of the sensitivity control mechanism, slow
work of agencies and so on.
Engine exhaust, running, sounds all unusual, difficult to start, accelerate
slowly; oil contaminated hydraulic system, hydraulic components and piping,
external and internal joints are a serious drain, the hydraulic cylinder does
not lock automatically retract; whole Machine loose drive chain of the
manipulation of the handle, maneuver block effort. The reason resulting the
detections includes overload of work is mainly a long time and do not meet the
requirements in the operating environment; routine maintenance is not timely,
large, medium and minor repairs not up to standard requirements.
Adjustment and repair methods
(1) the adjustment of the engine throttle
For example, crane equipped with diesel engines in the car, after a long-term
use, sometimes in the manipulation of the throttle the car will appear when the
slow growth rate, reach maximum speed and maximum power of the situation. At
this point need to check and adjust the throttle pedal on the car the entire
driveline. This would take two people, one person in the car control the
accelerator pedal and the other was observed in the fuel pump speed control
lever at the movement. The crane used for many years, the operator in the cab of
the accelerator pedal Although extreme position, but in fact the speed diesel
engine fuel pump rod and sometimes can not reach the limit position. Speed
control lever in the Machine because of the position in the operator's position
is not easily observed, the air travel is often overlooked, should be to observe
for a while, try several times. Reasons for this situation, one size chain drive
engine throttle changes, among which is too large due to the accumulation of air
travel; Second, some fasteners on the gear, such as caused by loosening set
screws. At this point the throttle should be gradual to check the drive size
chain, when the throttle on the train ride in the end, the speed control lever
must reach the limit. Throttle drive chain shall be required on the process
sacrificing the space should be based on the specific situation of each device
fastening and adjustment.
(2) gear pump repair
Gear pump wear, pump shell is mainly the surface of tooth wear on top and
tooth thickness. Repair methods are: wear in the pump shell surface layer of
metal coating solution at the brush, so to restore the original size; the top of
the gear tooth and the tooth may be its thickest plating, restoring the top of
the tooth thickness and tooth size; axis sets are generally not only for repair
and replacement bushings must pay attention to its axial length, do not leave
space. Several of the same model can be used on the gear pump for accurate
measurements, and then use lighter gear and wear re-combined with the pump
installed and a test in the test rig.
(3) piston pump repair
Wear surface of the plunger piston and the rotor is mainly compatible with
the plunger hole. Repair Methods: According to the wear measured by the size of
the plunger hole reconstituted plunger, the plunger of the new materials, heat
treatment technology and outer dimensions and surface roughness must comply with
the relevant technical requirements; Assembly may, before the new plunger with
the hole and grind it. In addition, it can be used in the selection of some of
the same model worn piston plunger and rotor to a lesser extent plunger hole
re-combination equipped. Generally speaking, the old with the gap between the
plunger and the hole should not exceed 35mm, 45mm when the wear reached should
be rejected.
(4) control valve repair
Should be measured in accordance with the valve stem hole the size of the
wear re-formulated the new stem, new stem material, heat treatment, size and
surface roughness departments must ensure compliance with relevant technical
requirements; the new valve assembly before the best rod and the valve stem hole
on the ground look, (preferably a car manufacturing process used to grind the
spindle), can also be used if the conditions are not met milling about the same
time a new stem, but also on the control valve positioning and pressure
adjustment spring Unit elasticity of the return spring testing to see if it
meets requirements. Can also be based on the valve stem of each hole to
determine the degree of wear and tear repair methods, if the same model more
than the old valve can be detected between several and deployment. After repair
the valve should be tested in the pilot stage, the valve can also be flat, two
holes in the above to fill kerosene, with a stopwatch to measure the speed of
the oil spill to determine the extent of the valve seal.

2015 will be the hotspot year for China construction machinery
When other multinational giants still looking for a new road to recovery,
construction Machinery enterprises in China has become the absolute protagonist
of the show. According to Voice of 'news and newspaper summary' report, known as
the Asian construction machinery industry benchmark known as the 2010 Shanghai
BMW Exhibition April (23) opening. Xuzhou Construction Machinery Group Chairman
Wang Min said that by 2015, construction Machinery enterprises in China will be
among the world's top five.
As traditional manufacturing and emerging industries, modern energy industry,
modern agriculture, integrated transport system are all key industry future, and
therefore as the representative of the mechanical engineering machinery industry
will undoubtedly play an important role. At present, the mining machinery market
is facing several development emphases, first is product innovation, and second
is the large-scale product.
Nowadays the mining machinery market faces several development point, first
is the innovation crushing product. After the development in 2011, more and more
manufacturers were streaming out of mining machinery industry. A few small-scale
enterprises blindly chase and imitate others equipment production, their product
quality is no guarantee and they do not have core competitive power of
enterprise products, in the long run, the enterprise will naturally be submerged
in the wave of the high development of the economy and eventually was out of the
game. Therefore, if a crusher enterprise wants to develop in a long period of
time, it is necessary to have market core competitiveness and has its own unique
products.
Wang Min, chairman of Xuzhou Construction Machinery Group, said: 'By 2015,
when Xugong (000425) must become the world's top five construction equipment,
direct approximation of the world, Caterpillar, Komatsu. Now the world's largest
Caterpillar this year he is now more than 300 billion U.S. dollars, in order to
reach such a scale beyond. ' However, Wang Min stressed that Chinese companies
want to break the European and American giants dominated the International Heavy
machinery market for many years, but also to seek a breakthrough on the core
components.
The development of mining machinery is closely related to the improvement o
humans technology, modern technology of science and the whole level of the
industry, especially the development of mechanical engineering and mining
geology. The general trend of mechanical engineerings development is
digitalization, intellectualization, precision, micromation, vitality and
ecologization. As a branch of mechanical engineering, mining machinery abides by
the trend, too. Meanwhile, regarding the features of mining machinery, its trend
will be digitalization, intellectualization, precision, micromation, vitality
and ecologization.
As the professional manufacturer of complete sets of
mining machinery, such as stone
crusher,VSI sand
maker,Dryer
machine, Henan Hongxing is always doing the best in products and service.
We design and manufacture ideal and efficient crushing plant
The fundamental goal for the design of a crushing plant is an installation
that meets the required production requirements, operates at competitive cost,
complies with today's tough environmental regulations, and can be built at a
reasonable price despite the rising costs of equipment, energy and construction
labor. These can include the owner's engineering staff, safety personnel,
operations and maintenance personnel, equipment manufacturers, and the
engineering consultant. Ideally, the consultant combines his knowledge and
experience with an understanding of all parties' needs, to provide a balanced,
workable, safe and economic plant design.
Capital Cost
Direct Costs. The largest primary gyratory crushers cost US $2 million or
more, while overall crushing plant costs can be as high as $18 million. It's
necessary therefore to estimate crusher installation costs based on equipment
costs plus the following direct costs, including construction contractor
indirects: Earthworks, Mechanical, Concrete, Electrical, Structural steel,
Instrumentation, Architectural Indirect Costs. Indirect costs can fall within a
range of 40 to 60% of the direct costs, and include: Construction indirects,
Startup and commissioning, Construction equipment, Freight, Spare parts/first
fill, Taxes/duties, Engineering, procurement and construction management (EPCM),
Owner's costs (relocation, hiring and training personnel, permits, licensing
fees, etc).
In addition to the above, a contingency to cover unforeseen costs will be in
the range of 10 to 20% of the sum of the direct and indirect costs. The designer
must be aware of the project-specific costs of all such elements, so that he can
monitor costs and promote methods of reducing total installation costs. In some
locations, for example, labor and material costs could make a gabion wall more
expensive than a poured concrete wall, which has minimal structural
backfill.
Ore Characteristics
Ore characteristics are a critical element in both crusher selection and
plant design. Dry ores require greater provisions for dust suppression and
collection, including dust enclosures around screens, sealing on conveyor
skirts, and vacuum and wash-down systems. Wet, sticky ores can plug chutes,
reduce surge capacity, and decrease the live storage capacity of bins and silos.
To address this problem, chutes must be easily accessible for clean-up, and
large feeder openings must be provided for bins, silos and tunnels. If it is
practical to obtain representative ore samples, it is prudent to have testwork
conducted to establish ore flow properties, which will influence design
parameters.
At virtually all mines, ore characteristics change over time, and it can be
costly to 'design in' the optimal flexibility required to handle such changes.
Some owners stipulate that initial capital investment be kept to a minimum, with
design modifications paid for out of the operating budget. This is not always
easy to achieve.
Safety and Environment
Safety must be designed into all mining facilities. North American mines must
comply with local and national regulations such as OSHA, MSHA, the Mines Act and
the WCB. The modern plant includes safety guards around all moving equipment,
and emergency pull-cords on both sides of any conveyors with personnel access.
The maintenance department and safety officer must keep these safeguards in
working order. Ongoing safety training of plant personnel is imperative, and is
considered to be one of the most vital and monitored feature of most mining
operations.
Dust emissions must comply with the latest regulations for the jurisdiction.
Designers must make provisions for the installation of dust abatement,
suppression or collection equipment. Spillages from feeders, chutes and
conveyors must be minimized. Spill collection can be 'designed in' on feeder
installations; chute designs can minimize spillage at receiving and discharge
points; and conveyor belts can be widened to be more forgiving (e.g., skirting
internal back-to-back width can be reduced to allow the belt more side travel.)
Skirting should be extended a minimum of three belt widths past the load point.
Rules for conveyor and load point design should be used for guidance only, with
transfers custom-designed to suit a particular project. It goes without saying
that clean plants have lower operating costs. Crushers, screens and
dust-collection fans all contribute to high noise levels. Air-cooled lubrication
systems are not only noisy, but often leak oil. Well-balanced, choke-fed
crushers, dustenclosed screens and dust collector fans with silencers can keep
noise levels under control. Recirculating water can be used to cool crusher
lubrication systems.
Fertilizers are helpful for plants and how is it for the environment
As we know that fertilizers have enabled better growth and yield of plants
and vegetation, have you ever considered about their harmful effects on the
environment? And fertilizers as the chemicals afffect our lives and the
planet.
Mother nature has always taught us to balance out everything, and still
continues to do so! If you eat a lot, your body naturally bloats up and tells
you to exercise and come back to shape. When you exercise too much, your body
tells you to slow down and relax. If there is rain, you also get the Sun, each
and everything works fine till a balance is maintained. And we all know the
consequences of imbalance. A classic example for the same would be the rise in
global warming due to various reasons, including deforestation! Same is the case
with fertilizers. The problem is that humans tend to use too much of fertilizers
in the soil because they have to cater to the global demand of food. As
mentioned already, more than half of the total yield production is out of
synthetic or inorganic fertilizers which contains components like nitrogen,
potassium, sulfur, calcium, magnesium, and so on. These chemicals and minerals,
although help in boosting the growth of plants, they also have their drastic
side effects in the long run. Mentioned below are some key points defining the
effects of using fertilizers on the environment.
When you use too much of fertilizers in the soil, it leads to eutrophication.
Fertilizers contain substances like nitrates and phosphates that are flooded
into lakes and oceans through rains and sewage. These substances prove to become
toxic for the aquatic life, thereby, increasing the excessive growth of algae in
the water bodies and decreasing the levels of oxygen. This leads to a toxic
environment and leads to death of fish and other aquatic fauna and flora.
Indirectly, it contributes to an imbalance in the food chain as the different
kinds of fishes in the water bodies tend to be the main food source of various
birds and animals in the environment. You would be surprised to know that more
than 50% of the lakes in the United States are eutrophic!
The nitrogen and other chemicals present in the fertilizers can also affect
the ground waters and waters that are used for the purpose of drinking! One of
the most common result for this can be the development of blue baby syndrome
which occurs in infants whose skin tissues are low in oxygen, which is why their
skin appears to be blue or purplish in color. You would also be interested to
know that studies reveal that the use of lawn fertilizers and pesticides can
cause health risks like cancer and chronic diseases in humans, especially in
children.
Though this may sound ironic to you, the fact is that using too much of
fertilizers in the soil can alter the fertility of the soil by increasing the
acid levels in the soil. Which is why it is recommended to get a soil test done
at least once in every 3 years so that you can keep a track whether or not you
are using the right amount of fertilizers. The levels of soil pH varies from
0-14, wherein 0 is considered to be the most acidic and 14 being the most basic.
7 is considered to be neutral. The ideal soil pH varies from plant to plant and
can be altered by bringing in some changes. Bottom line for using too much of
fertilizers in the soil is that though it may seem to work currently, there are
high chances that you may not use it for plant yielding in the long run.
Fertilizers consists of substances and chemicals like methane, carbon
dioxide, ammonia, and nitrogen, the emission of which has contributed to a great
extent in the quantity of greenhouse gases present in the environment. This in
turn is leading to global warming and weather changes. In fact, nitrous oxide,
which is a byproduct of nitrogen, is the third most significant greenhouse gas,
after carbon dioxide and methane. Therefore, you can well imagine as to how
harmful is the use of fertilizers for our environment... and the ongoing use of
fertilizers across the world will only make matters worse!
These facts are alarming and a serious step needs to be taken as soon as
possible to avoid more severe consequences. The use of fertilizers for growth
and cultivation is keeping our stomach filled for now, but then if things keep
on progressing the way they are, it won't take long to see the times where there
is lack of food, water, and health.
What should be prepared for underground mining safety
Modern underground mines have rigorous safety rules and precautions and
mining companies require a great deal of on-the-job safety training. In
addition, the Federal Coal Mine Health and Safety Act of 1969 directed the
National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health to study the causes of
coal-related diseases and to develop a program to prevent the heath problems of
coal workers. Mining requires workers to spend long hours underground in
hazardous and often unstable conditions. Miners use a variety of safety
equipment to stay safe on the job daily. These pieces of equipment can save the
lives of those who choose to enter this particularly dangerous line of work.
Cap Lamps
Mines are completely dark unless workers are near the entrance or provide the
light themselves.
Miners often have their own personal lights attached to their hard hats, even
if the work site has lights set up. The workers may need to make their way
through dark areas to transition from one spot to another, or the light system's
power could fail. A miner's hard hat can be fitted with a small battery pack and
a lamp that hooks to the front.
Respirators
Inhalation hazards are among the most significant dangers for workers in
mines. Gases can cause nausea or may even be toxic. Dust particles in the air
can cause respiratory complications and more.
Minors often use respirators to reduce inhalation levels and work comfortably
in the mine. The style of respirator varies based on the dangers associated with
a particular mine. Many respirators are simple face masks with an odor filter
and protection from airborne contaminants. Some are powered and provide a flow
of fresh oxygen to the miner.
Gas Detection
The days of taking a canary into the coal mine as a warning system of
poisonous gases are long gone. Gas detection sensors are now placed in mines to
monitor the levels of methane, carbon monoxide, oxygen, nitrogen dioxide and
other gasses to ensure that the workers are not in danger of inhaling a toxic
gas or running out of oxygen.
Portable Air
Mining involves digging, scraping and pounding hard materials such as
limestone and other rocks. To make the job more efficient and safe the industry
now uses pneumatic tools instead of hammers and picks. While these older tools
are still used, the heavy lifting is done by air-powered equipment.
Portable air systems are much lighter and more mobile than older air
compressors and canisters. They can be rolled along or worn by a worker. The
hose attaches to the pneumatic tool of choice.
Employees who have worked for in mines for extended periods of time have a
greater chance of developing a mining- related illness. These illnesses are
caused by exposure to mining chemicals and the physical hazards which are
associated with mining. Mining related illnesses include respiratory disease,
lung cancer, hearing loss and musculoskeletal disorders.
Facing hazards of mobile equipment what shall we do
Mobile equipment is used in many industrial applications, be it mining,
construction or freight. However, the field with the highest potential for
hazard is the mining field. Such as in mining mahcinery industry, there are mobile crushing station, mobile jaw crusher, mobile impact crusher and so on.
Mobile equipment is heavy-duty industrial equipment that is used to move
material from one area to another. Some examples would be forklifts, dump
trucks, tractors and backhoes. This type of equipment can be hazardous if used
incorrectly, so proper safety precautions should be taken to avoid injury.
Luckily, operating mobile equipment safely is possible for most people when
following a few steps.
1. Obtain a commercial driver's license (CDL) before operating mobile
equipment. This will ensure that you or anyone operating the equipment will be
properly and legally trained. A CDL can be obtained through a local technical
college or private institution. The cost varies depending on the type of
equipment you will operate, but generally the CDL will cost around $75. You have
to be 21 years of age in most cases to get a CDL and complete a series of
written tests.
2. Inspect the equipment before beginning use. Look for fuel leaks or any
visible defects like damaged electrical or mechanical parts. If repairs are
necessary, do not operate before those repairs are completed. Local mobile
equipment service technicians will be able to repair most types of
equipment.
3. Fasten seat belts when using mobile equipment to avoid injuries.
4. Maintain focus while operating the equipment and keep a look out for other
people or vehicles in the vicinity. Use extra caution when moving in reverse.
There is a warning sound on most mobile equipment like dump trucks and forklifts
when moving in reverse.
5. Keep loads under the intended load capacity. Never attempt to lift more
than your equipment can handle. The load capacity can be found in the
manufacturer's handbook.
6. Avoid transporting people on mobile equipment and only use it as
intended.
Mobile devices that impair your ability to drive safely include cameras, cell
phones, laptops, music players, pagers and personal digital assistants
(PDAs).
The overall applications of limestone equipment from Red Home
Limestone is a sedimentary rock composed mainly of calcite. Are distributed
throughout the country, while the more exposed the fine texture of the surface,
mining is easy and low development cost, and easier processing and comprehensive
utilization.

Using jaw crusher we should root in local conditions
As we all know, jaw
crusher discharge mouth (row ore mouth) can be adjusted according to user's
need to obtain a qualified product material size. Zhengzhou general crusher
experts now as this issue, with everyone do simple description, hope to be able
to bring you help.
Along with the continuous abrasion gear plate, ranking ore mouth bigger
product constantly coarsens, in order to obtain qualified product size, need
regular adjustment row ore mouth size. Row the adjusting methods of the ore
mouth basically has the following two:
1, gasket adjustment, namely the bearing seat behind thrust board with frame
behind after a group of gasket placed between wall, increase or decrease gaskets
quantity or changing its thickness, can achieve the purpose of adjusting row ore
mouth. This compact structure, regulating and reliable, large and medium-sized
jaw crusher multi-purpose the regulation method.
First we must be clear,Concrete Crushers, the jaw crusher thrust board, also
called cubits board,Crusher Equipment, in addition to transfer power to and fro
dynamic jaw plate do outside, but also has a safety insurance effect, changing
its length also can rise to adjust the role of ore mouth platoon.
When jaw crusher crushing cavity things (such as crushing in an iron ball,
iron, etc.), for the protection of the equipment is mainly parts are not damaged
and use as crusher insurance after thrust board components. With cast iron plate
after general thrust moulds overall, in which a trough of some holes open or to
lower the cross-section intensity; Also can cast two, then use screws (or
rivets) of connecting thrust board, combined. When not broken objects into
crushing cavity, equipment overloaded and huge breakage force to thrust plate
lead to thrust board broken or combination thrust board screw, machine cut to
stop work, have insurance effect.
2, wedge block regulation, it is to use on thrust board with frame between
the backseat two wedge block adjustment is suitable for small crusher
adopted.
These knowledge may in equipment instructions say not so detailed, so the
user is in the purchase equipment, installation debugging when must learn more
with crusher experts, mastering jaw crusher insurance and discharging
adjustment, stable production can be better.
Mining Machinery is to develop a technology to improve human, modern science
and technology and is closely related to the overall industry level,
particularly in mining and mechanical engineering disciplines of science and
development are closely linked. Mechanical Engineering, the general trend of
scientific development will be digital, intelligent, precision, miniaturization,
life, and Ecology. Mining Machinery as a branch of mechanical engineering
disciplines, but also follow this general trend. At the same time, combining the
characteristics of mining industry and its development trend is digital,
intelligent, ecological and amenity of. Mining Machinery manufacturing should
continue to integrate into the human's outstanding achievements in various
fields, major demand for national economic construction, scientific outlook on
development as guidance, to achieve sustainable development.
A) The need for economic development
Along with social improvement and economic development, human resources and
increasing demand for energy, but what a resource of relatively poor countries.
Followed by resource development, mining depth increased, extending from land to
sea, the premise of resource extraction deteriorating security situation is
becoming increasingly difficult mining; coal mining in China has reached the
depth of 1000m, metal ore concentration 1380m, deposit mining depth increased,
water, gas, high stress, geological structure that greatly increased the
difficulty of resource extraction.
Automated unmanned underground or dangerous working face is the development
direction of the mining environment, but also protect the safety of mining face
an effective way. Integrated use of mining science, automation technology,
communication technology, computer science and technology, no one working face
to automate the basis of theoretical research and development of new
technologies, new equipment, so that mining machinery (crusher, ball mill) will be towards robots
and intelligent direction.
Storage of a variety of strategic metals seabed mineral resources, to achieve
efficient and safe marine mineral resources exploitation, to protect the
country's maritime rights and interests and provide technical support for
national economic development, social protection for sustainable development.
Achieve seabed mining, submarine control need to develop unmanned submersible
depth, no diving, etc. made no intelligent cable mining machinery and
equipment.
B) Competition in the market-driven
China mining machinery to improve the overall level of senior level
comparable with the international discrepancy. Towards mining machinery journey
in the manufacture of power, opportunities and challenges. Product design is the
soul of the manufacturing industry, product structure, function, quality,
capital, delivery time and manufacturability, maintainability, scrap processing
and post-human, machine and environment relationship, in principle, are in the
product design stage decision. The product is different and the design capacity
has become a deciding competitive position in the global primary factor.
Mining Machinery is a high technological content and integration of
equipment, development of new equipment constantly results in all areas of human
integration in, followed by materials science, manufacturing technology,
information technology, computer technology improved, each round There are new
technologies into products, parts and components of the update cycle is shorter
and shorter, faster and faster updating of new equipment, especially large-scale
mining machinery development, no warning from the experience of mature, but not
agreed to the design Any errors in the thrown, it must be multi-disciplinary
technology with the integration of design efficiency and design quality
improvement, promotion, business is different and independent capacity and
market competitiveness. Mining Machinery and computer technology, network
technology formed the basis of comprehensive digital trends.
C) For the natural environment and harmonious development
China's 'Eleventh Five-Year Plan' that, to build a resource-saving and
environment-friendly society, focusing on the development cycle of the economy,
insisted on developing equal emphasis on conservation, conservation priority, in
accordance with the reduction, reuse, recycle principle, resource extraction,
produce consumption, waste generation, consumption and other sectors, and
gradually establish the whole cycle of use of system resources of society; to
save energy, save water, saving land, saving material, comprehensive utilization
of resources to strengthen the promotion of conservation policies.
Machinery from the simple pursuit of scale and efficiency of the model to
build the cycle of economic direction 4R. Natural environment for the harmonious
development requires mining machinery 'ecology', through a variety of senior
technology to improve manufacturing model, manufacturing resources,
manufacturing, process manufacturing organizations continued to stand out, so
that products are not in the whole life cycle cause environmental pollution or
environmental pollution minimization, resource utilization, the highest, lowest
energy consumption, the ultimate enterprise coordination of economic and social
benefits. Efficient, zero emission fuel cell mining machinery has good
development prospects.
Geothermal energy as a green, renewable resources, are identified as
countries around the world to maintain social sustainable development of new
energy, rich in geothermal resources have been a better use of the developed
countries, developing energy resources and the crust of solid waste treatment
resources for the Mining Machinery to expand the service area. Mining Machinery
in computer technology, network technology, multidisciplinary integrated support
for economic development, driven by demand in the market, in the harmony of
human and natural community development, mining machinery has been toward the
digital, intelligent, ecological and pleasant direction.
Forefront of modern science and technology have significant time-domain,
field and dynamic characteristics. Integration between different scientific
cross will produce new scientific focus, economic development and social
improvement of the mining machinery to generate a new expectations.
Attentions on how to use portable crushers soundly
Mobile crusher can be
classified into: mobile jaw crushing plant, mobile cone crushing plant, and
mobile impact crushing plant, etc. In the manufacturing and processing period,
only production operation with sufficient knowledge and recognition about the
equipment can have a better output. many customers will possibly have a
misunderstanding area in case of unnecessary damaging, which causes a lower
efficient of production.
Firstly, only after the mobile crushing plant is working in a stable state,
material can be put into for production.
Secondly, the material for crushing must be put uniformly into the crushing
cavity instead of putting in side direction or piling full, which can avoid the
situation that mobile crushing plant will hold the stress on one side or be
overload.
Thirdly, before the mobile crushing plant ends work, stop adding the material
into the cavity, after the material in the cavity has been removed totally, the
power can be shut down. This avoids the phenomenon of blocking in crushing
cavity.
Fourthly, when the mobile crushing plant is working, there are too much
materials in the crushing cavity that caused the stop of machine, the electrical
power should be closed down immediately, then clearing the material, after it is
well cleared, the mobile crushing plant can begin again to work.
Lastly, after a while of using, the maintenance and repair should be on time
and checking every parts stability.
The Renaissance and Development of machinery industry in China
Machinery industry is closely related with the fixed asset investment growth,
we expect the Eleventh Five-Year period of Chinas economic growth will be
slightly lower than the fifth period of growth, fixed asset investment growth
will also be more fifth during slowed, but is expected to increase. China's
State Council executive meeting on the 4th approved in principle the equipment
manufacturing industry restructuring and revitalization plan, this plan made it
clear that speed up the revitalization of equipment manufacturing industry, we
must rely on national key construction projects, large-scale independent of the
major technologies and equipment to carry out the work.
Experts pointed out that the equipment independently of the biggest
highlights of this plan. To promote the equipment independently, relying on the
planning requirements for efficient and clean power generation, ultra-high
voltage power transmission, coal and metal ore mining, pipeline and liquefied
natural gas storage and transportation, high-speed rail, urban rail transit and
other areas of key projects, targeted to achieve the key products of domestic
manufacture; combination of iron and steel, automobiles, textiles and other
major industries, key projects, promoting the equipment independently.
China Machinery Industry Federation, said Deputy Secretary-General Song
Xiaogang, equipment manufacturing industries for the national economy,
technology and equipment of the strategic industries, and equipment
independently of not only the development of equipment manufacturing industry
itself, but also to the country s economic security.
China National Machinery and equipment development into the best period of
development transfer of world manufacturing, China is gradually becoming the
worlds factory. United States, Germany, Korea and other countries have already
entered the era of industrialization and the development of microelectronics era
of high-tech intensive, steel, machinery, chemical and other heavy industries
are gradually made transfer in developing countries. Chinas current economic
development has been the early stages of development, the development of heavy
industry is in the middle.
To improve the basis for China s equipment manufacturing spare parts and
basic level of technology, planning that, to enhance Forging, basic components,
processing aids, special raw materials and other ancillary products, skills,
reinforce the basis for industrial development.
In this regard, China First Heavy Industries Group Corporation Wu Shengfu
said, good basic parts of the industry is of great significance. Although China
can produce a number of large equipment, but has been unable to keep up a good
solution to the problem of key components, some of the important bearings,
hydraulic components, pressure vessels and other long-term dependence on
imports.
The future development will continue to benefit from the revitalization of
the equipment of the national police equipment, policies to promote the
revitalization of domestic demand. June 28, 2006 to accelerate the
revitalization of the State Council on Several Opinions of the equipment
manufacturing industry (hereinafter referred to as Opinions) issued the
Opinions that future development will focus on 16 major areas, namely:
Power generation, power transmission, petrochemical, coal chemical industry,
sheet metal rolling, fully mechanized coal mining, shipbuilding, railway and
mass transit, environmental protection, construction machinery, control and
precision instruments, machine tools, textile machinery, agricultural machinery,
IT equipment and aircraft. Opinions not only for equipment.
The future development of equipment manufacturing industry clear direction
and goals, but also support the policy put forward a series of measures,
including tax incentives, financial support is conducive to long-term health of
the machinery industry, rapid development. Expected in the Opinion and its
related policies and other policies to promote the revitalization, Chinas
machinery industry will maintain robust growth in domestic demand.
Verticle roller crusher sets the paradigm for crushing equipment
Since the grinding track is horizontal and the centre of gravity of the
roller system only moves vertically, all impact forces and dynamic reactions are
mainly vertical and thus easy to accommodate. The extremely low mass of the
roller suspension system means low total inertia and thereby low dynamic
forces.
In the event of excessive vibrations of the roller system, the lower inertia
also limits the dynamic loads on the grinding table and thrust bearing in the
gear box as well as on the surroundings.
The variation in hydraulic force is greatly limited by means of the
nitrogen-filled accumulators connected to the cylinders, which act as springs.
Even though the variation in the grinding bed takes place during operation, the
hydraulic force varies within only a few bars.
The horizontal force into the mill housing normally accounts for 10-15% of
the hydraulic force. The required raw meal quality and capacity are obtained by
easily adjusting the grinding pressure, separator speed, gas flow and dam ring
height.
The roller suspension system permits the hot gas inlet section to be designed
virtually, without restrictions to the gas flow below the grinding table. The
nozzle ring area is adjusted by inserting or removing shims on top of the vanes.
Thereby the gas speed can be reduced to a minimum allowed by the amount of
external circulation. The benefit of the low gas speed in the nozzle ring is a
significant reduction in pressure loss across the nozzle ring and thus a
significant saving in power for the mill fan.
The beneficial design of the hot gas inlet with low pressure loss enables the
mill to be fitted with an oversize nozzle ring. It is not necessary to involve a
larger mill size just to accommodate the gas flow only the nozzle ring and the
separator must be adapted to the higher gas flow. This feature reduces energy
and wear in the crusher.
Design of jaw crusher paying attention to workers safety
To quote a wise crusher operator, Crushing is not just about tons per hour;
it's about safe tons per hour.' But consider that a safe workplace is not
achieved via mere lip service and signage, but rather from the right
mindset--from owners, managers and workers--and from the manufacturers of each
piece of processing equipment.
Importantly, manually digging out the crusher before repairs or restarts puts
workers in dangerous positions. The Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA)
has reported numerous injuries and fatalities incurred when climbing in or under
the jaw to manually clear, repair or adjust the typical older-style jaw crusher. As such, a welcome
market entry is that of modern crusher design, derived from a major impetus to
put safety first while also meeting demand for far greater productivity and ease
of maintenance.
Whether a crusher is jammed by large material or uncrushable debris, or
stalled by a power failure, the chamber must be cleared before restarting.
Manual clearing is a lengthy and risky task, especially since material can be
wedged inside the crusher with tremendous pressure, and dislodging poses much
danger to workers placed in harm's way inside the crusher.
The hydraulic chamber clearing system on the Model 3258 jaw automatically
opens the crusher to a safe position, allowing materials to pass. Its hydraulic
relief protects parts and components against overload damage, and its hydraulic
adjustment reduces maintenance time and maintains safe, consistent crusher
output without the need for manual intervention.
Safety is a culture and should be championed by every worker in the
operation. At the same time, management should respond immediately to each
worker's safety concerns and successes, rather than monitoring only overall team
efforts and targets. And, manufacturers should engineer greater safety as well
as productivity into their units while accompanying their equipment with strong
operational and safety training programs.
It has never been more important to consider the potential hazards of
conventional, older-style crushers versus modern jaw crusher design. And even
during today's challenging economic climate, safety should never be minimized
due to a need to achieve lower prices or costs. Modern crusher design is a major
development in safe material processing--one that allows operations to maximize
productivity while putting safety first.
A Jaw Crusher is one of the main types of primary crushers in a mine or ore processing plant. The
size of a jaw crusher is designated by the rectangular or square opening at the
top of the jaws (feed opening). For instance, a 24 x 36 jaw crusher has a
opening of 24' by 36', a 56 x 56 jaw crusher has a opening of 56' square. Primary jaw crushers are typically
of the square opening design, and secondary jaw crushers are of the
rectangular opening design. However, there are many exceptions to this general
rule.
A Jaw Crusher reduces large size rocks or ore by placing the rock into
compression. A fixed jaw, mounted in a 'V' alignment is the stationary breaking
surface, while the movable jaw exerts force on the rock by forcing it against
the stationary plate. The space at the bottom of the 'V' aligned jaw plates is
the crusher product size gap, or the size of the crushed product from the jaw
crusher. The rock remains in the jaws until it is small enough to pass through
the gap at the bottom of the jaws.
Today's jaw crushers utilize hydraulics to do the heavy work, reducing
maintenance time and keeping workers at a safe distance. The graphics below
illustrate how hydraulics facilitate the toggle removal, eliminating the need
for workers to access under the jaw while lowering heavy items. Hydraulics push
the pitman forward and a lock-out pin is inserted through the side plate
securing the pitman. The toggle is secured for lowering and hydraulic pressure
is reduced in the tension cylinders, freeing the toggle. Hydraulics retract the
toggle beam.
When do impact and attrition occur if crushing process
To maximize crushing, you must marry impact and attrition actions. When size
reduction begins, the material is picked up by the lower liner, moved outwardly
and caught between the crushing members. The impact of the head results in
reduction of material by grinding and by facture of particle-upon-particle
caused by forceful relocation to the particles within the mass.
Even at the closest approach of the attrition members, the liners are still
separated by a layer of small particles of substantial thickness. In most
instances it has been found that a better product and greater usable quantity of
desired size is obtained by increase rather than decrease of gap when it becomes
a question of optimizing crusher capacity and power draw. Therefore, the setting
of the crushing members is not as directly related to the size of the product
required as is the setting in the cone-type crusher.
Remember that during the upward thrust of the rotating head two distinct
processes combine to reduce the feed into a uniform fine product:
1. The impact of coarse particle against fine particle similar to the action
of balls or pebbles in a grinding mill. The progressive structuring of cubical
shaped, fine, particles is clearly shown in these two enlarged views of the
attrition zone. Finely crushed particles are discharged at perimeter of
attrition chamber.
2. The attrition resulting from the high surface friction during forceful
relocation of the particles into smaller voids within the feed mass. In the
Gyradisc crusher, the combination of impact and attrition offers the most
efficient power utilization as compared to other fine crushing or reduction
methods employed today.
The competitive superiority and operating precautions of cone crusher
With the constant growth of china's economic construction, domestic real
estate and domestic highway have made rapid development, crusher industry as
well. The sales and market of the cone crusher also gradually
blossom and the sales volume have significantly improved far more than previous
years.
It is tempting that cone crusher has a very big application prospect. The
root cause lies in the special design and the great performance. Moreover, cone
crusher is a new machine of energy saving, low cost, high productive capacity.
The cone crusher has novel design principle and adopt new crushing technology,
which can meet the different materials, different specificationes of crushing,
and meet requirements of the new process 'more crushing & less gridding'.
The crushing ratio of Cone crusher is bigger, the granularity is fine and
uniform and lower unit power consumption.
This is of importance to operate properly crusher in use, which concerns the
working life of the crusher parts and the crusher. The following is the do's and
don'ts.
(1) The starting and the stopping of cone crusher
A. cone crusher should match the appropriate starting motor according to the
model of crusher.
B. cone crusher should be sequentially started up and closed down.
C. when it starts, cone crusher inside should be empty. After the crusher
remains stable, it is the time that feed in stuff. Feeding in stuff by equality
and can't operating by overload.
D. before stopping the crusher, feeding in stuff should be stopped. By now,
the crusher can be stopped; when the all stuff in the crusher was to be
discharged.
(2) Feeding stuff
A. the stuff that is prepared to put in crusher should comply with the
technical requirements; the size of stuff must not exceed the prescribed scope.
The Moisture content in related to the property, both the proportion must not
more than 15%, so as not to block the machines mouth.
B. feeding the stuff equably, thus can increase the effect of crush and
imporve the work contition.
(3) Discharge
A. discharge opening should ensure clearance, in order to avoid causing the
overloading accidents because of dischage difficultly.
B. the cone crusher should be inspected termly. If the size of stuff is not
comply with the specified size, then should inspect the wear condition of the
hammer, lining plate and the tension situation of V-belt. When those problems
are found, worn parts are replaced and the tensile force of V-belt is
adjusted.
Compare to the traditional crusher equipment, those advantages, such as the
bigger crushing ratio, fine granularity, lower power consumption, crushing
anything hard brittle matters etc, make the cone crusher to be an ideal, energy
saving, superfine crushing equipment.
