What are the functions of a spring cone crusher's cutting ring?

The cutting ring is a key component of a spring cone crusher, typically made of high-manganese steel for exceptional wear resistance. It is welded or tightly fitted to the movable cone lock nut, securing the movable cone and preventing loosening or displacement during high-speed rotation.

1. Securing the movable cone: By welding or tightly fitting it to the movable cone lock nut, it ensures the stability of the movable cone during the crushing process, preventing loosening and reduced crushing efficiency.

2. Buffering Protection: Located between the movable cone and the main shaft, this high-hardness material cushions impact forces, reducing wear on the main shaft and bearings.

3. Optimizing Crushing Efficiency: Precision design ensures a stable gap between the movable cone and the fixed cone, resulting in more uniform material crushing and improved production efficiency.

4. Adjusting the Crushing Chamber Size: By adjusting the position or size of the cutting ring, the crushing chamber gap can be changed to control the output particle size and degree of crushing. ‌

Spring cone crusher cutting rings require regular inspection for wear and timely replacement to prevent wear-related problems such as gap changes and cone wobble. High-quality cutting rings should be manufactured by reputable manufacturers, ensuring that welding and heat treatment procedures meet standards.
