When a new crushing circuit is being considered it is important to determine the crushing characteristics of the rock or mineral to be processed. Proper testing can establish the design parameters for the new crushing plants to ensure the desired product quantity and quality can be reliably produced by the equipment selected.

The only way to predict crushing costs with certainty is to establish the abrasion rate of the material to be quarried and crushed. From the softest limestone to the roughest silica, wear rates and the resulting crushing costs can be ascertained, by a REMco crushing test.

REMco provides crushing tests to prospective buyers of REMco crushers. These crushing test services are generally performed on a no-charge basis for standard tests. REMco uses a production model 200 VSI with 75 hp and VFD drive for these tests. This crusher can be arranged in a wide variety of configurations for test purposes. For accuracy in testing, it is essential that the right quantity of material is provided. For more information about these services, please contact REMco.
