Key benefits of upgrades, rebuilds and exchange services for crushers

  • Increase throughput and efficiency with crusher upgrades

    Upgrading crusher components can increase the capacity and feed size of your crusher, so you can achieve greater productivity. These projects are highly bespoke, enabling us to get to the heart of your specific challenges to determine how we can adapt, upgrade or adjust your operation to increase throughput.

  • Lower energy consumption when increasing crushing efficiency

    The energy consumption of your crushing operation can be affected by bottlenecks and disruption to your process. Upgrading your crusher, whether by increasing jaw size or adding digital capabilities, can help you streamline operations to reduce excessive energy consumption.

  • Improve availability and extend component life

    Our rebuild services enable you to get the most out of your equipment, saving you money and reducing the environmental impact of your process. Rebuilding is carried out by OEM-approved workshops or at one of our regional service centres, or on site, guaranteeing top quality parts with a low turnaround time.

The process: From identifying gaps to enhancing crusher efficiency and reliability

Identify performance gaps and tailor solutions for process improvement

Improvements to your process should always begin with an audit and study. We need to identify what the process potential is (or should be), actual performance, and the gap between the two. Visual inspections work off a checklist, specific to each application. We then audit those results, comparing how the machine is working to its original specifications and performance guarantees. The result is a study which outlines the precise performance gap and the solutions we’ve identified to bridge that gap. 

Rebuilds help reduce environmental impact and capital expenditure. 

Reduce, reuse, recycle, as the mantra goes. Those terms might seem more applicable to a plastic bottle than a primary crusher, but we don’t see why mining shouldn’t also aim to be more circular in its thinking. Our rebuilds service enables you to return worn equipment to as-new condition, giving your old gearbox or bearing a new lease of life and preventing the consumption of the vast amounts of resources needed to manufacture new parts. Rebuilds also solve the disposal problem associated with replacing a complete machine.

Frequently asked questions

FAQs for crusher upgrades, rebuilds and exchange

To choose the best crusher for primary crushing, consider how big the rocks being fed to the crusher are, how much material you need to process, and how hard the material is.  As an example 3000 tph of copper sulphide ore with 1m x 1m x 1m boulders needs a gyratory crusher.

You can increase the efficiency of your cone crusher – or any crusher – by optimising the crusher liner geometry.

Increase jaw crusher throughput by reducing the size of the feed material.

Increase the throughput of your gyratory crusher by installing an optical sensor above the trucks, which will help you avoid oversize material entering the crusher.
