s Controls
The LMFC 250 Crusher
’
s operation is controlled locally by the operator by using the central control box.
5.2.3
Principles of Operation
The LMFC 250 Jaw Crusher uses an electric motor to drive the Crusher pitman eccentric shaft, providing an oscillating move-
ment to the moving jaw plate. The moving and fixed jaw plates form a V shape with an adjustable gap at the bottom, thereby
crushing the material fed down between the jaw plates, to the gap size. The gap can be adjusted to the required particle size,
to a minimum of 2 mm. The crushed material is collected in a tray beneath the jaw plates.
Massa of the machine is around 100kg.
Motor mounted is standard 7,5 kW.
