In 2017, advancements in rock crusher technology focused on improving efficiency, automation, durability, and environmental sustainability. Here are some key innovations and trends in new-type rock crusher machines from that period:
1. Hybrid & Electric-Powered Crushers
– Electric-driven models reduced fuel consumption and emissions, aligning with stricter environmental regulations.
– Some crushers incorporated hybrid (diesel-electric) systems for remote or off-grid operations.
2. Smart & Automated Crushers
– Remote monitoring & IoT integration: Sensors tracked performance metrics (e.g., wear levels, throughput) in real time via cloud-based platforms.
– Automated adjustments: Systems like Metso’s IC™ crusher automation optimized crushing parameters dynamically.
3. Compact & Mobile Designs
– Track-mounted crushers (e.g., Sandvik QJ341+, Kleemann MC 120 Z PRO) offered high mobility for on-site crushing.
– Modular designs allowed quick setup and reconfiguration.
4. High-Efficiency Crushing Chambers
– Improved geometries (e.g., Metso’s MX Multi-Action cone crusher) enhanced particle shape and reduced energy use.
– Patented crushing technologies minimized fines production.
5. Wear-Resistant Materials
– Advanced alloys/composites extended the life of wear parts (mantles, liners).
6. Multi-Functional Crushers
– Machines like the Rebel Crusher (RR Equipmen
combined jaw and impact crushing in one unit for versatility.
7. Noise & Dust Suppression
– Enclosed designs and water-spray systems met stricter workplace/environmental standards.
Notable 2017 Models:
– Sandvik QS331 Hydrocone: Automated cone crusher with compact footprint.
– Terex Finlay C-1540P: Tracked cone crusher with pre-screen for efficiency.
– Kleemann MOBICAT MC 120 Z PRO: Jaw crusher with advanced feed control.
