Component Specifications

Definition
The concave/bowl liner is a manganese steel casting that forms the stationary crushing surface in cone crushers and gyratory crushers. It's mounted inside the upper frame (bowl) and works in conjunction with the mantle to crush rocks through compressive force. This component defines the crushing cavity geometry, directly impacting product size, capacity, and crusher efficiency. It's designed with specific profiles (standard, coarse, fine) to achieve desired particle size reduction.
Working Principle
The concave creates a fixed crushing surface against which the rotating mantle compresses feed material. As the mantle gyrates within the concave, rocks are crushed through repeated compression cycles. The liner's profile controls the nip angle and crushing gap, determining the size reduction ratio and throughput. Wear occurs through abrasion and impact, gradually changing the chamber geometry until replacement is required.
Materials
High manganese steel (11-14% Mn, 1-1.4% C), often alloyed with chromium (2-3%) or molybdenum for improved wear resistance. Heat treated to achieve austenitic microstructure with work-hardening properties. Alternative materials include martensitic steel for certain applications.
Technical Parameters
  • Weight 500-8000 kg depending on crusher size
  • Hardness 200-300 HB (as cast), up to 500 HB (work-hardened)
  • Thickness 50-200 mm
  • Service Life 200,000-1,000,000 tons depending on material and application
  • Profile Types Standard, Coarse, Fine, Extra Fine
Standards
ISO 13521:1999, DIN 1695, ASTM A128

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should concave/bowl liners be replaced?

Replacement intervals depend on material hardness, feed type, and throughput. Typically every 200,000-600,000 tons. Monitor product size and power draw for wear indicators.

Can different liner profiles be mixed in the same crusher?

No. Mixing profiles causes uneven wear, reduces efficiency, and risks mechanical damage. Always use matched liner sets from the same manufacturer.

What causes premature concave liner failure?

Common causes include improper installation, tramp metal events, excessive feed size, incorrect material selection for application, and poor maintenance practices.

Can I contact factories directly?

Yes, each factory profile provides direct contact information.
