In the field of construction waste recycling, the impact crusher plays a crucial role. However, the high mud content and large hardness differences in construction waste can severely affect the stable operation and crushing efficiency of impact crushers. Relying on Zhengzhou Kuanglian Machinery's thirty - year experience in the mine crushing industry, this article systematically analyzes common faults of impact crushers and presents prevention and maintenance strategies.
Abnormal wear is one of the most common problems. In high - mud - content environments, mud can adhere to the equipment surface, accelerating the wearing of components. For example, for a normal working impact crusher, under normal conditions, the service life of components may reach 6 - 8 months. But in a high - mud - content construction waste recycling project, this service life may be reduced to 3 - 4 months.
The large hardness differences in construction waste can lead to uneven forces on the crusher, causing excessive vibration. When the hardness difference of the treated construction waste exceeds 30%, the vibration amplitude of the crusher may increase by about 20% compared to normal operation, which not only affects the normal operation of the equipment but also shortens its service life.
Uneven discharging is also a significant issue. The inconsistent particle size and hardness of construction waste can cause problems in the discharging process. Statistics show that in projects with severe uneven discharging, the proportion of non - compliant discharging materials can reach about 15%.
Using high - precision digital machined parts can effectively reduce stress concentration. High - precision processing technology can ensure the dimensional accuracy of parts, making the force distribution on the equipment more uniform. Through practical verification, equipment using high - precision digital machined parts can reduce the probability of abnormal wear by about 30%.
Establishing a standardized inspection and lubrication maintenance process is essential. Regular inspections can detect potential problems early, and proper lubrication can reduce friction and wear. For example, a daily inspection system can detect about 80% of potential problems, and regular lubrication can extend the service life of bearings by about 40%.
By understanding the causes of common faults in impact crushers and implementing corresponding prevention and maintenance strategies, we can effectively improve the stability and production efficiency of the equipment, and promote the sustainable profitability of construction waste recycling projects.
