The head center, a cone-shaped and vital part of a hydrocone crusher, plays a fundamental role in the rock crushing process. The hydrocone head center transmits the necessary force to the shaft and mantle assembly and, by continuously rotating, converts large rocks into smaller pieces.
Hydrocone Head Center Function
The head center provides the necessary force to crush rocks by transmitting power to the shaft and mantle. It also controls the final size of the crushed rocks by adjusting the distance between the mantle and the concave. The high resistance of this part to wear increases its useful life and prevents premature failure.
Technical specifications of the Hydrocon center head
- Material: Manganese molybdenum steel
- Shape: Conical
- Installation location: On the main shaft of the crusher
- Function: Power transmission, distance adjustment, wear resistance
- Driven power: 125 horsepower dynamo


A look at the features of the Hydrocon Head Center
- Wide application: The Hydrocon Head Center can be used as a primary and secondary crusher in various mines, including sand and gravel, metal and mineral ore mines.
- High capacity: The large inlet opening in this machine allows for the acceptance of a large volume of rock, and as a result, the sand and gravel production capacity increases significantly.
- Superb efficiency: The Hydrocon Head Center crushes hard rocks with high efficiency using powerful mechanisms, thus saving time and energy and providing a quality and uniform product.
- Resistance and stability: The wear parts of this machine are made of manganese-molybdenum steel, which is highly resistant to wear and corrosion caused by rocks. This significantly increases the useful life of the Hydrocon head center.
- Easy to use: The low weight and simple design of this device make it easy to transport and install, and therefore, it can be easily set up and used at the desired location.
- Cost reduction: The 3-stage automatic lubrication system in the Hydrocon head center lubricates moving parts and prevents their premature failure and wear. This, in turn, significantly reduces the maintenance and repair costs of the device.
- Sturdy structure: The strong and sturdy body of the Hydrocon head center is highly resistant to pressure and impacts caused by the stone crushing process, ensuring the device’s stability and efficiency in the long term.
