The specially designed, strength-optimized topshell and dedicated crushing chambers of the CH895 model make it ideal for tertiary and pebbles crushing while the CH890 topshell and crushing chambers are dedicated to secondary crushing. Both units have more power and increased crushing force in order to increase productivity. Manfred Schaffer, President Surface Mining at Sandvik Mining and Construction, says: “The heavy-duty structure and 1000 horsepower are what first meet the eye. But it is the specialized geometries and smart crushing features that uniquely drive efficiency and throughput. We call this ‘Dedicated by Design’.”
The new mainshaft, made from a new high-strength material, is designed to withstand harsh mining requirements while the strength-optimized bottomshell design allows for greater loads. Simply stated, the heavy-duty structural design ensures durability and longevity in the most demanding conditions.
Further customer improvements, for increased safety and minimized downtime, include a relocated external dump valve and a new over pressure system to keep the lubrication oil clean, thereby increasing time between service. Customers will also recognize the trusted cone crusher design from Sandvik with its hydraulically adjusted mainshaft and proven ASRi™ control system to facilitate online adjustment during full load and ensure peak performance at all times.
“The CH890 and CH895 crushers have been dedicated to specific applications while sharing the same platform for easy service and support which should facilitate efficient inventory management and parts forecasting”, adds Manfred Schaffer.
