The discharge size of roll crusher is mainly controlled by mechanical adjusting device, and its range and uniformity are affected by equipment design, operating parameters and material characteristics. Adjustment Mechanism of Roll Crusher Discharge Size Wedge adjustment The position of the wedge is changed by adjusting the bolt: when the wedge is pulled upwards. The gap between the movable roller and the fixed roller increases. And the discharge size becomes larger; when the wedge is pressed downwards. The spring is compressed so that the gap decreases, and the discharge size becomes smaller. Gasket adjustment Increasing or decreasing the number or thickness of shims can change the gap between the rollers: When the shims are increased, the gap becomes larger and the discharge size increases; when the shims are decreased, the gap is reduced and the size is finer. Typical range of discharge size Depending on the model, the size of the roll crusher discharge is usually adjusted between 0.5 and 30 mm. Example: Small plants (e.g. 2PG400 x 250): discharge size 2-8 mm, suitable for fine crushing; Medium-sized equipment (e.g. 2PG610×400): discharging granularity 0.5-30 mm, taking into account the needs of coarse and fine crushing; Large-sized equipment (e.g. 2PGG1200×800): the…
