Block Diagram Ko. Engineers Pt Limited, Ambala out crust ae Engineering Growth Connection Rott CRusHEerR OBJECTIVE: To study the operation of roll crusher. Am: To determine the efficiency of the roll crusher for crushing a material of known work index (VW) IntRobUCTION: achines for coarse reduction of large quantities of solids. The roll crusher is designed to crush ores, minerals, coal, coke, chemicals and other similar material. It is compact and of rugged construction for small pilot plant operations. Such crushers may contain two rolls, smooth roll crushers and toothed roll crushers. Toothed roll crushers are much more versatile than smooth roll crushers within the limitation that they cannot handle very hard solids. THEORY: Roll crusher are used to reduce the particle size of materials to fine particles. They are very common in industry and have a wide application. Crushing rolls consist of two heavy cylinders revolving toward each other, the feed being nipped and pulled downward through the rolls by friction. They rotate in opposite directions and the clearance between them can be adjusted according to the size of feed and the required ize of product. Roll crushers are classified as secondary crusher with feed 12mm to 76mm in size and products 12mm to 1mm. The forces exerted by the rolls can be varied and adjusted by the springs provided. Crushing rolls are used for crushing oil seeds and in the gun powder industry and are also suitable for abrasive materials. They are simple in construction and do not give a large percentage of fines, BOND CRUSHING LAW AND WoRK INDEX: ‘Amore realistic method of estimating the power required for crushing and grinding is He ay D, KO Engineers Put.

PRECAUTION & MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS: 40.1. Never run the apparatus if power supply is less than 180 volts and more than 230 volts 40.2 The machine should not run: when there is no oil in oil cups. 40.3. All the nuts and bolts ‘of motor and unit fixed with the base are to be checked up before operation. 40.4 Clean the rolls and whole unit before and after its use with cloth. 411, TROUBLESHOOTING: 44.4 Ifthe feed material chokes in between the rolls stop the motor and remove the choked material manually. 41.2. Ifthe motor stops during experimentations and as you starl but starter trips while starting, it means starter gets over heated stop the crusher for at least 15 min and start it again 412.
