Gyratory Crusher

Maintenance Procedures
TS Crusher Overview:
Spider Assembly

Main Shaft Assembly

Gear Cover Assembly

Eccentric Assembly

Hydraulic Piston Assembly

 Recommended Tools:
The FLSmidth Top Service Gyratory Crushers
require the same tools that are used to
maintain any typical NT Gyratory Crusher,
except the Maintenance Trolley.

FLSmidth supplies the following additional

tools assist in maintaining the TS Gyratory
Crusher.

Piston Lifting Rod

Lower Shell Maintenance Platform
Dust Bonnet Maintenance Platform
 FLSmidth Maintenance Tools

 Spider Removal
FLSmidth’s Bar-Type Spider is bolted to the
Top Shell with only four (4) Bolts. On average,
it requires two (2) hours to remove the spider.
Main Shaft Removal
The TS Gyratory Crusher Main Shaft is
removed in the same manner as FLSmidth’s NT
Gyratory Crusher. The TS Crusher features an
integral Lifting Lug forged into the Shaft. This
ensures a high quality material, alleviates stress
risers, and ensures that the Lug can not be
stolen or lost.

Removal takes less than thirty (30) minutes.

Dust Bonnet & Gear
Cover Removal
The TS Gyratory Crusher is designed with a Dust
Bonnet and Gear Cover that protect the Eccentric.
This Cover is bolted to the Bottom Shell, and is
designed to be removed with an overhead crane
during maintenance. Removal of the Cover allows
access to the Eccentric Assembly.

Removal takes two (2) hours on average

In the NT design, it would be necessary to access the Hydraulic
Cylinder Assembly first, before the Eccentric could be accessed.
 Eccentric Removal
Once the Dust Bonnet & Gear Cover are removed
from the Crusher, the Eccentric Assembly can be lifted
out with the supplied Lifting Eyes.

Since the majority of maintenance is performed on the

Eccentric Assembly, the TS Crusher is a more efficient
crusher as it eliminates the wasteful step of first removing the
hydraulic cylinder.

Removal takes less than thirty (30) minutes

 Hydraulic Piston
Removal
The Removal of the Hydraulic Piston requires
installation of the Lifting Rod and attachment to the
Overhead Crane. The Piston and all its Bushings and
Seals are removed as one unit from the Crusher.

Removal takes less than one (1) hour on average

Crusher Reassembly
Reassembly of the TS Gyratory Crusher will take the
same amount of time as removing the assemblies.
Depending on the extent of the Maintenance, some
new components may require additional verifications
to guarantee alignment and therefore add additional
time.

The only instance that the underside of the Gyratory

will need to be accessed is to perform inspection and
maintenance of the Lubrication & Hydraulic Lines,
therefore a small footbridge underneath the crusher is
sufficient for maintenance personnel.
