<p>A cone crusher (1) comprises a crushing chamber (50) formed between inner and outer crushing shells (18, 12), a drive shaft (38) adapted to make the crushing head (16) gyrate to crush material (52) in the crushing chamber (50), and a feeding hopper (54) arranged for feeding material to the crushing chamber (50). The cone crusher (1) further comprises:
- a measurement device (72) for measuring the amount of material (52) that is present in the feeding hopper (54), and
- a control system (60) which is configured for controlling, based on a measured amount of material (52) present in the feeding hopper (54), at least one crusher operating parameter which is chosen among:
i) an rpm of the drive shaft (38), and
ii) a width of a discharge opening (56) formed between the inner crushing shell (18) and the outer crushing shell (12).</p> |
