Analyzing 4 Factors That Influence Hammer Head Lifespan
2013-08-27
Crusher hammer heads include: hammer crusher hammers, compound crusher hammers, sand-making machine hammers, fine-crushing machine hammers, and stone-crushing machine hammers, among others. Their lifespan depends on the following four key factors: 1. The physical properties of the mineral and the characteristics of its accompanying materials (such as abrasiveness to metal, soil content, moisture levels,黏塑性 [viscoplasticity], compressive strength, etc.). 2. The rationality of the machine’s internal structural design. 3. The appropriateness of the material selection for the hammer head and the quality of its manufacturing process. 4. The proper operational techniques employed during use. The first factor is an inherent, objective condition—something that exists naturally and must be understood accurately from the outset. As for the second factor, it involves making necessary adjustments within the machine to ensure optimal performance tailored to both the properties of the material being processed and the specific requirements of the production process.
I. Physical properties of the mineral and characteristics of its associated components (such as abrasiveness to metals, soil content, moisture, viscoplasticity, compressive strength, etc.)

2. Rationality of the Machine's Internal Structure
3. Correctness of Hammer Head Material Selection and Manufacturing Quality
4. Operating Instructions
The first aspect is the objective existence—something inherent and requiring prior, accurate understanding. The second involves internal machine adjustments tailored to the properties of the material being processed and the specific demands of the production process, designed to prevent abnormal, excessive wear. The third concerns material selection: currently, single-stage hammer crushers use hammers made from either bimetallic composite materials (with a high-chromium cast iron head—HRC > 61—and a chromium-molybdenum alloy steel shank rated HB 225–310) or high-manganese steel types (including alloyed high-manganese steel, ultra-high-manganese steel with added alloy elements, and alloyed high-manganese steel featuring wear-resistant layers welded onto the striking surface). A fourth critical factor is proper crusher operation and handling: for instance, adjusting the grate settings and turning the hammer heads at the right time—or failing to do so—can significantly impact performance. Unfortunately, some facilities even skip these essential steps altogether, allowing material to accumulate in the oversized gap between the grate and rotor, leading to relentless friction. As a result, no matter how durable the materials used, their lifespan will remain severely limited. Therefore, establishing standardized procedures and ensuring meticulous operational practices are crucial not only for extending equipment life but also for achieving energy efficiency, reducing consumption, and minimizing emissions in cement and mining operations.

Drilling Well Flushing Technology
Abstract：This paper introduces the three core functions of well flushing in drilling: cooling drilling tools, removing cuttings and cleaning the bottom, and supporting the wellbore. It expounds the characteristics and selection requirements of four types of well flushing media. The two mainstream well flushing processes, direct circulation and reverse circulation, are compared, their respective characteristics are analyzed, and the technical parameter control standards for the reverse circulation process are clarified, which can provide a reference for field drilling construction.
Abstract: This paper introduces raise boring drilling, a highly efficient vertical shaft construction technique featuring reverse upward excavation from bottom to top. With advantages including high safety, low disturbance, and high efficiency, it is widely applied in mining, underground engineering, and other fields. The technology is divided into two categories: full-face raise boring and core barrel raise boring. Full-face raise boring, including pull-up and jack-up types, is suitable for large-diameter shafts and shafts of varying depths. Core barrel raise boring enables simultaneous shaft formation and geological coring, and is applicable to small‑to‑medium shallow‑to‑medium‑depth shafts. The technology is evolving toward intelligence, greater depth, and unmanned operation.
Abstract: This paper elaborates on bored pile drilling technology, identifying bored piles as an important type of cast-in-place end-bearing pile. Compared with precast piles, bored piles feature controllable costs, low steel consumption, strong capability for large-diameter and ultra-deep hole forming, wide geological applicability, and low environmental impact, while still facing deficiencies such as sediment cleaning and borehole wall mud cake issues. It also introduces the basic requirements, characteristics, conventional and innovative drilling processes, and points out the broad application prospects of this technology amid technological innovation.
