325 Sandvik has introduced two new cone crushers, the CH890 and CH895, which it says are designed to increase performance in both secondary and tertiary/pebble crushing applications.

The specially designed, strength-optimised topshell and dedicated crushing chambers of the CH895 model are said to 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 1,000 horsepower are what first meet the eye. But it is the specialised geometries and smart crushing features that drive efficiency and throughput. We call this 'Dedicated by Design'."

Further customer improvements, for increased safety and minimised downtime, include a relocated external dump valve and a new over pressure system to keep the lubrication oil clean, thereby increasing time between service.

The proven ASRi control system offers online adjustment during full load and is said to ensure peak performance at all times.
