Gyratory crushers

Our heavy-duty gyratory crushers are designed to deliver higher throughputs more efficiently, so you can get more from your ore. The latest generation TSUV gyratory crusher includes optimised speed to reduce wear rates and maximise uptime. Plus, as a digitally enabled crusher, you can monitor crusher health and performance to help avoid unplanned downtime and identify opportunities for optimisation.  

Built to last – crushing solutions that last a lifetime

Mining has a long history – and so do we. Our commitment to optimising the comminution process with quality crushers dates back to the Traylor and Fuller-Traylor gyratory crushers of the early 1900s. Since then, our crushers have continuously withstood the harshest demands of the world’s mines and rock quarries – some for more than 100 years. The longevity of these machines means that you don’t have to think about replacing your crusher, but that doesn’t mean you can’t upgrade it. Your crusher’s performance can be improved with the latest wear liners, upgraded components and digital tools and services. You can also rebuild worn parts to bring them back to OEM standards and restore crushing efficiency.

Frequently asked questions

FAQs for crushers

In mining, crushing is the process of reducing the size of rocks and ore. This can be done in a gyratory, jaw, cone or roller crusher. 

Ore is fed into a crusher – either in the mine itself, or in the minerals processing plant – and crushed using compression or impact to reduce the size of the rocks to something that is easier to handle. 

Rocks are crushed during ore mining to make the ore easier to process. Rocks may measure more than a metre square when taken from the mine. Transporting rocks of this size is difficult and expensive, so crushers are usually situated in or close to the mine to reduce the size before the ore is processed.
