Multi-Cylinder Hydraulic Cone Crusher Applications
A multi-cylinder hydraulic cone crusher takes the medium-to-fine stage in four duties: high-hardness ore, large-scale aggregate production, metal ore preparation, and mine tailings or waste rock. Baichy publishes six size classes, HP100 to HP800, each with five chambers, for 150–300 MPa rock.
What Is a Multi-Cylinder Hydraulic Cone Crusher?
The multi-cylinder cone crusher is a medium-to-fine machine that uses 4 to 8 hydraulic cylinders for coordinated discharge control and tramp iron protection. Baichy builds it on the spring cone crusher structure and positions it for secondary and tertiary duty.
Against a single-cylinder hydraulic cone crusher, the multi-cylinder design is preferred where gradation and discharge stability set value.
What Are the Application Scenarios for a Multi-Cylinder Cone Crusher?
Each scenario below is defined by material, hardness and line position.
1. Medium-to-Fine Crushing of High-Hardness Ores (Granite, Basalt, Diabase)
Granite, basalt and diabase at Mohs 6–7 and 150–300 MPa are the base case for this hard rock cone crusher duty. Against a spring cone crusher Baichy publishes 30% higher capacity; against a single-cylinder model, over 30% higher output.
Configuration: PE900×1200 jaw crusher (primary) → HP400 cone crusher (secondary) → HP300 cone crusher (tertiary).

2. Large-Scale Sand and Aggregate Production Lines
Lines producing 3,000–10,000 tons per day buy uptime and particle shape. As the aggregate cone crusher of such a line, the multi-cylinder cone crusher holds needle-and-flake content below 10% for C50/C60 concrete aggregate.
Configuration: vibrating feeder → jaw crusher → HP500 cone crusher (secondary) → YK vibrating screen → impact crusher for sand making.
3. Iron Ore and Non-Ferrous Metal Ore Processing
In a metal ore plant the secondary stage sets the ball mill feed, so a cone crusher for iron ore is judged on discharge stability. The multi-cylinder hydraulic cone crusher holds discharge opening fluctuation within ±2 mm, which Baichy links to 10–15% lower grinding energy consumption.
Configuration: jaw crusher (primary) → HP400 or HP500 cone crusher (secondary) → HP300 cone crusher (tertiary) → ball mill.
4. Mine Tailings and Waste Rock Reprocessing
Overburden and waste rock arrive as mixed-hardness feed, so tramp iron protection matters as much as throughput. Lamination crushing breaks soft and hard particles together, and a mobile crushing plant moves the process to the mine site.
| Scenario | Typical configuration |
|---|---|
| High-hardness ore | PE900×1200 jaw crusher → HP400 → HP300 |
| Aggregate production | Feeder → jaw crusher → HP500 → YK screen → impact crusher |
| Metal ore preparation | Jaw crusher → HP400/HP500 → HP300 → ball mill |
| Tailings and waste rock | Mobile crushing plant, on-site processing |
Which HP Model Covers Each Application?
The model follows maximum feed size and required capacity, the chamber follows target product size; the extra-coarse rows run to HP800 at 570–1200 t/h and 630 kW.
| Model | Feed Opening Size (mm) | Max Feeding Size (mm) | Min Discharge Opening (mm) | Capacity (t/h) | Power (kW) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| HP100 | 140 | 110 | 19 | 65–140 | 90 |
| HP200 | 185 | 145 | 19 | 145–250 | 160 |
| HP300 | 234 | 190 | 25 | 220–445 | 220 |
| HP400 | 295 | 240 | 30 | 300–630 | 315 |
| HP500 | 330 | 270 | 38 | 425–795 | 400 |
| HP800 | 350 | 280 | 38 | 570–1200 | 630 |

Why Does Lamination Crushing Control Product Shape?
Particles break against each other as well as the liners, so three mechanisms shape the product instead of single impact.
Dynamic extrusion — the main shaft swings the moving cone eccentrically, squeezing material between the moving cone and the fixed cone liner.
Multi-stage crushing — material falls in a waterfall pattern and is laminated repeatedly, like a sandwich.
Shape control — adjusting the swing trajectory evens out the finished product, with needle-like content below 10%.

FAQ: Multi-Cylinder Hydraulic Cone Crusher Applications
1. Which duties suit the HP series?
High-hardness ore at 150–300 MPa, large-scale aggregate lines, metal ore preparation, and mine tailings or waste rock — all at the medium-to-fine stage, as secondary or tertiary units.
2. What is the difference between a multi-cylinder vs single-cylinder cone crusher?
The multi-cylinder type uses 4 to 8 cylinders for coordinated control and serves secondary and tertiary crushing. The single-cylinder type keeps a simpler structure and a high throughput advantage in secondary duty.
3. What is the HP800 cone crusher capacity?
The published HP800 cone crusher capacity is 570–1200 t/h in the extra-coarse chamber, with a 280 mm maximum feeding size, a 38 mm minimum discharge opening and 630 kW installed power.
4. What feed size can the HP series accept?
Maximum feeding size runs from 110 mm on the HP100 to 280 mm on the HP800, both in the extra-coarse chamber. Oversize feed bridges at the chamber inlet.
