Compaction Crushers
Hydraulic press system for breaking salt agglomerates in refining processes.

Product Overview
Our Compaction Crusher is a purpose-built hydraulic press system designed to efficiently break salt agglomerates in refining and mineral processing applications. Engineered for high-pressure precision, it ensures uniform particle size reduction while maintaining material purity in corrosive salt environments. Ideal for salt refineries, chemical plants, and food-grade salt production facilities, this crusher minimizes energy consumption and operational downtime through robust construction and intelligent force control.Key Applications
- Salt Refining: Breaking hardened salt lumps into uniform granules for washing, drying, or iodization.
- Chemical Processing: Crushing salt agglomerates in chlor-alkali production or brine purification systems.
- Food & Pharmaceutical: Preparing high-purity salt crystals for edible or medical-grade applications.
Design & Performance Features
1. Hydraulic Press Technology
- Pressure Range: Adjustable hydraulic force from 50–500 tons, optimized for brittle salt agglomerates without over-pulverization.
- Precision Control: Programmable logic controller (PLC) with pressure feedback for consistent output (granularity tolerance: ±5%).
- Energy Efficiency: Regenerative hydraulic circuits reduce power consumption by 20–30% compared to conventional crushers.
2. Corrosion-Resistant Construction
- Material Selection:
- Press Chamber: Stainless steel (SS316L/2205) with electropolished surfaces to resist chloride-induced pitting.
- Pistons & Dies: Tungsten carbide-coated components for wear resistance in abrasive salt environments.
- Sealed Design: IP66-rated enclosures protect hydraulic systems from salt dust and moisture.
3. Operational Safety & Ease
- Overload Protection: Automatic pressure release valves and shear pins to prevent system damage.
- Quick-Change Dies: Tool-free die replacement for adapting to different salt types (e.g., sea salt, rock salt, evaporated salt).
- Noise Reduction: Sound-dampened hydraulic pumps maintain noise levels below 80 dB(A) at 1 m distance.
