What is a Mobile Cone Crusher?

A mobile cone crusher is a self-contained, portable crushing machine that integrates a powerful cone crusher, a vibrating feeder, a conveyor, and necessary screening equipment all mounted on a single mobile chassis. Unlike stationary crushers that are fixed in one location, a mobile cone crusher can be easily transported to a job site and begin crushing almost immediately. It is designed for direct feed from a primary crusher or a shovel to produce high-quality, spec-compliant aggregate products on the go.

Key Features of Our Mobile Cone Crushers

Our mobile cone crushers are engineered with cutting-edge technology for maximum performance and reliability:

  • High-Performance Cone Crusher: At its heart is a proven cone crusher known for high reduction ratios and excellent product shape.

  • Integrated Vibrating Feeder & Pre-Screen: Ensures consistent feed to the crusher and removes fines to increase capacity and reduce wear.

  • On-Board Conveyors: Feature built-in discharge conveyors to stockpile the final product without the need for additional equipment.

  • Intelligent Control System: A user-friendly, PLC-based control system allows for easy operation and real-time monitoring of key parameters.

  • Robust Chassis: Designed for durability and stability during transportation and operation

Key Advantages of Using a Mobile Cone Crusher

The mobility of these units provides significant operational benefits:

  • Rapid Setup and Dismantling: Can be set up and ready to crush in under 30 minutes, drastically reducing downtime.

  • Unmatched Flexibility: Move the crusher to the material source (e.g., different quarry faces, demolition sites), eliminating costly truck haulage of material.

  • Cost-Efficiency: Reduces or eliminates the need for fixed foundations, concrete, and complex steel structures, lowering initial investment.

  • Versatile Applications: Ideal for contract crushing, mining, quarrying, and recycling applications where sites change frequently.

  • Direct Feed Capability: Can be fed directly by an excavator or wheel loader, simplifying the entire process.

How a Mobile Cone Crusher Works

The working principle can be broken down into a continuous cycle:

  1. Feeding: Material (e.g., blasted rock, demolished concrete) is loaded into the hopper by an excavator or loader. The integrated vibrating feeder then consistently transports the material to the cone crusher.

  2. Crushing: The material enters the crushing chamber. The cone crusher’s mantle gyrates against the concave bowl liner, compressing and breaking the rock against itself. This “inter-particle comminution” produces a high-quality, cubical product.

  3. Discharging: The crushed material falls onto a discharge conveyor located underneath the crusher.

  4. Stockpiling: The discharge conveyor carries the final product and stockpiles it for later use or directly loads it onto trucks for transport. Many models also feature a return conveyor to recirulate oversize material for further crushing.

Tracked vs. Tire-Mounted Mobile Cone Crushers

We offer two primary types of mobile chassis to suit different needs:

  • Tracked Mobile Cone Crusher: Mounted on crawler tracks, these units offer exceptional mobility on rough and challenging terrain (e.g., steep slopes, muddy grounds). They are remote-controlled and can be moved around site easily at low speeds. They are the preferred choice for most complex job sites.

  • Tire-Mounted Mobile Cone Crusher (Mobile Crushing Plant on Wheels): Mounted on a wheeled trailer, these are primarily designed for highway transportation at higher speeds without a permit in many cases. They are typically towed by a truck to the site. They are ideal for operations on flat, hard surfaces and are often a more cost-effective solution for road construction projects.

We Provide Various Models of Mobile Cone Crushers

We understand that no two projects are the same. Therefore, we offer a comprehensive range of mobile cone crusher models to match your specific requirements. Our portfolio includes:

  • Various Sizes: From compact units for tight urban recycling sites to large, high-capacity models for major quarry operations.

  • Different Crusher Types: Options include hydraulic cone crushers and multi-cylinder models to achieve the precise product shape and output you need.

  • Custom Configurations: We can work with you to configure a mobile plant with the right pre-screens, post-screens, and conveyors to optimize your specific workflow.
