2.1 Foundation
The mounting and clearance drawing which is
furnished will provide guidance on the mounting
locations and size of the foundation bolts as well as
location of the crusher drive motor. A typical
mounting and clearance arrangement is shown at
the beginning of this section. Refer to Figure 2-1
for the MP800 or Figure 2-2 for the MP1000. A
solid level foundation of proper proportion and
durability is of utmost importance to the successful
operation of the Crusher.
2.2 Crusher Clearance Dimensions
A well planned installation is an absolute necessity
for the ultimate success of the Crusher. One of the
major considerations to be given the construction of
the foundation is crusher clearances. Refer to
Table 2-1 for the MP800 or for the MP1000,
Table 2-3.
Sufficient head room should be provided above the
Crusher for the removal of the head and bowl
assemblies. Enough room should be provided at the
side of the foundation for the removal of the
countershaft box assembly. Consideration should
also be given to the additional clearance required
for the feeding arrangement, such as; chuting, feed
hopper and other auxiliary equipment. Adequate
clearance should also be provided for the discharge
compartment, conveyor and related equipment. In
order to accurately determine crusher clearances.
Refer to Figure 2-3 and Table 2-1 for the MP800 or
for the MP1000, Table 2-3 as well as the mounting
and clearance drawing.
CAD (Computer Aided Drafting) template files are
available on request for the MP Cone Crushers.
2.3 Crusher and Sub-Assembly Weights
Another factor to be considered when designing the
foundation and also a factor to be considered when
planning overhead lifting equipment is crusher
weights. An overhead crane, a rubber or track
mounted mobile crane, a chain hoist or other
suitable equipment must be provided for handling
heavy crusher components during erection or
during the replacement of the crushing liners or
other worn parts. Size requirements for hoisting
equipment including cables, slings and shackles
can be determined by referring to Table 2-2 for the
MP800 or Table 2-4 for the MP1000. These tables
give the complete MP800 and MP1000 weights as
well as weights of subassemblies that require
frequent handling.
NOTICE
Foundation must be acceptable for loadings.
Obtain technical data sheets with foundation
loads from Metso Minerals. It is customer’s
responsibility for proper design and
construction.
