## 1. Overview of Hydrocone Crushers
1.1 What is a Hydrocone Crusher?
A Hydrocone crusher is a type of cone crusher that utilizes hydraulic pressure to adjust the crushing gap (closed-side setting) and protect the machine from overload conditions. Unlike traditional spring-based cone crushers, Hydrocone models incorporate hydraulic cylinders for dynamic adjustment and tramp iron protection.
1.2 Key Features of Model 1065
The Hydrocone 1065 is part of Sandvik’s mid-range crushers with:
– A nominal capacity ranging from 80 to 250 tph, depending on feed size and material hardness.
– A robust design optimized for secondary crushing applications.
– Hydraulic adjustment system for quick CSS (Closed Side Setting) changes.
– Tramp release mechanism to prevent damage from uncrushable materials.
– Superior wear protection with manganese liners.

## 2. Components & Working Principle
2.1 Main Components
Understanding each part ensures proper operation:
1. Main Frame: Supports all internal components.
2. Eccentric Assembly: Rotates the mantle for crushing action.
3. Concave & Mantle: Wear parts responsible for material reduction.
4. Hydraulic System: Controls CSS adjustment and tramp release.
5. Drive System: Includes motor, belts/sheaves (or direct drive).
6. Lubrication System: Ensures bearings operate smoothly.
2.2 Crushing Mechanism
The Hydrocone operates via:
– The eccentric shaft rotates the main shaft/mantle assembly in an elliptical motion.
– Material enters through the feed hopper and is crushed between the concave liner and mantle.
– Hydraulic pressure maintains optimal crushing force while allowing automatic adjustments.
