CSB160 Standard Symons Cone Crusher for High-Efficiency Secondary Rock Reduction

The main difference lies in the chamber geometry and purpose. The 'Standard' model features a flatter cavity angle with a larger intake opening, making it ideal for the secondary crushing stage to receive larger stones from a primary jaw. The 'Shorthead' model features a steeper cavity and a narrow intake zone, designed specifically for tertiary (fine) crushing to produce sub-15 mm final products.

Cone crushers process material via continuous compression and sliding attrition inside the pocket. Standard manganese steel wear parts can flow or experience rapid surface gouging under these high-abrasion forces. Our Mn18Cr2 (18% Manganese, 2% Chrome) liners work-harden aggressively under this intense crushing stress, forming a tough shell that extends mantle life.

In highly abrasive granite or basalt quarries operating a continuous 8-to-10 hour daily shift, a set of high-quality Mn18Cr2 liners typically lasts between 4 to 6 months. Operational life varies based on feed moisture, feed particle size distribution, and the proportion of fine dust entering the chamber.

If an uncrushable piece of metal (such as a steel drill bit or loader tooth) enters the chamber, it cannot be crushed. The multi-spring setup surrounding the outer bowl allows the entire upper assembly to compress and lift momentarily. This creates a larger opening for the tramp object to pass out the bottom safely, protecting the gears, main shaft, and drive motor from structural shocks.

The CSB160 relies heavily on clean, consistent lubrication. It must be paired with an automated oil lubrication skid. The filter elements should be inspected and replaced regularly, and the oil temperature should be kept within the recommended range. Our lubrication pack includes automatic interlocks that protect the machine by cutting the motor if oil pressure falls below safety limits.

The net base weight of the CSB160 is approximately 38,500 kg. Due to its size and weight, it is typically disassembled into major assemblies (main frame with eccentric, bowl with adjustment cap, and mantle assembly) and packed into open-top or standard flat-rack ocean containers. On-site installation requires a heavy, engineered reinforced concrete foundation.

We back the CSB160 Standard Symons Cone Crusher with a comprehensive 12-month structural warranty, covering the main cast housing frame, countershaft assembly, main shaft, and bevel gear sets against any material or manufacturing defects. Standard high-wear manganese castings (mantle and concave liners) are excluded, but authentic spares are kept heavily stocked for rapid international shipping.
