The
V-Slam™ Impactor
Delivers Size Reductions To 8 Mesh, While
Producing Fewer Fines
AURORA,
IN – The V-Slam™ Vertical Shaft Impactor from Stedman offers industrial producers more final product on the first pass, a low initial investment and the opportunity for lower operating costs throughout the crusher's life. The V-Slam impact crusher creates fewer fines, reducing machine component wear and maintenance costs.
The V-Slam Impactor efficiently crushes minerals, ores and chemicals with up to 15:1 reduction ratios and works well in industrial applications such as glass,
slag, bottom boiler ash, iron-ores and scrap tungsten carbide pieces.
With rotor speeds of up to 15,000 feet per minute, the V-Slam has production
capacities ranging from 8 to 100 TPH. The wide receiving tube funnels
material up to 2" in size into the feed opening. An open, bottom discharge
eliminates screens on the machine and reduces clogging. The machine utilizes
less floor space than other crushers with comparable production capabilities.
In
addition to offering a low initial investment, the machine's design can
reduce a company's long-term operating costs. The impactor's single drive
uses less horsepower per ton when compared to dual-drive systems. This
design also incorporates fewer drive components, which can reduce maintenance
costs. Motor sizes to operate the V-Slam are custom-designed
to fit an operation's production requirements, so customers can save money
throughout the life of the impactor by not powering larger motors than
what the application calls for.
The
impactor's standard table shoes and anvils are made of heavy-duty, high-chrome
metallurgy for superior wear life. Easy height adjustment of the feed
tube evenly distributes material over the shoes and maximizes flow through
the crushing chamber. A 3-stage, anvil ring indexing system offers vertical
anvil adjustment for precise product gradations. Their square design allows
anvils to be rotated 180°, extending wear life. The tapered wedge lock
system allows for simple anvil replacement. Optional alloys are available
for both the shoes and anvil.
The
user-friendly V-Slam features a hydraulically opening top cover that allows
unimpeded access to the crushing chamber. By simply removing the top clamps,
operators can easily inspect or replace shoes and anvils and clean the
crushing chamber. The V-Slam's support table utilizes
exchangeable bearing cartridge assemblies that can be quickly replaced
and rebuilt by Stedman in the future. An automatic lubrication system
circulates oil through the top and bottom bearing assemblies during operation.
This system reduces maintenance requirements by eliminating the need for
manual lubrication through zerk fittings.
As
with all Stedman size reduction technologies, the customer is encouraged
to test the application before purchasing the V-Slam. By providing a sample
of the material to be crushed, Stedman's full-size test-lab can assist
in identifying the right machine for the application.
Stedman, the originator of the cage mill, is the leader in providing
solutions to size reduction needs. Stedman's full range of equipment includes
vertical and horizontal shaft impactors, cage mills, lump-breakers and
fine grind mills.
