SBM’s new generation vertical impact crusher rotor

SBM has introduced a new generation of vertical impact crusher rotors. The company says that the vertical impact crusher type V8 as well as the bigger model V10 can easily be upgraded by the new rotor. “Due to mounting protective cast armour plates at the upper and lower sides of the rotor, the service life of the rotor body could be prolonged by three times minimum in comparison to the old version. Repair costs are also considerably lower as maintenance has become easier and quicker,” says SBM. The newl

7156 SBM Mineral Processing has introduced a new generation of vertical impact crusher rotors.

The company says that the vertical impact crusher type V8 as well as the bigger model V10 can easily be upgraded by the new rotor.

“Due to mounting protective cast armour plates at the upper and lower sides of the rotor, the service life of the rotor body could be prolonged by three times minimum in comparison to the old version. Repair costs are also considerably lower as maintenance has become easier and quicker,” says SBM.

The newly-developed cast armour plates make it much easier for operating staff to clearly see the state of wear, and wear parts can be changed even when the rotor is mounted as the cast armour plates can be exchanged in sections.

    Timely maintenance using proven cost-effective methods can extend the life of a highway by many years as Patrick smith reports Highways are expensive assets to construct, and the wear and tear of modern traffic means that regular maintenance will delay costly repairs or in extreme cases reconstruction. There are a number of methods of carrying out such maintenance, and these include the use of slurry seals and micro-surfacing, which are cold mixed asphalt which is a mixture of graded aggregate, asphalt emul

    Today’s highways require high performance materials, and this means rigorous testing as Patrick Smith reports Highways are under greater pressure than ever today and asphalts have to grant high performances in order to withstand traffic and meet the standards. Studying the plastic permanent deformations in hot mix asphalt (HMA) is very important to obtain useful information for mix designers as an appropriate mix design will reduce the formation of unevenness on road surface. To investigate the effect of mi
