The Comprehensive Information about Mining Equipment

Introduction to Mining Machine

Mining equipment is extensively used in the mines exploitation. There are many kinds of mining machines such as mining crusher, ore dressing machine and sand making machine. Among these machines, basalt mining machine is specially applied in the basalt crushing work.

The Features of Mining Equipment

Mining machine is usually divided into two types: underground mining and open pit mining. 
  (1) Due to the limited room of mine, mining machine is required to be compact in structure and small in size. Therefore, the pressure and load endured by bearing and wheel gear is relatively big. 
2）Mining equipment is able to move regularly in changeable conditions under large load
(3) Mining machine usually moves at medium or low speed.
(4) The environment of mine is quite harsh and humid due to its harmful gas (such as sulfur dioxide, hydrogen sulfide). Consequently, numerous mining machines will face problems such as fire protection, anti-explosion and anti-corrosion. 
 (5) Open pit mining equipment is capable of suffering from wind, sun, rain and cold.  
(6) Hence, the room in mines being quite narrow, the maintenance work of mining
equipment is pretty difficult. Mining machines are required to be durable and convenient to
maintenance. 

The Demands on Lubricating Oil according to the Features of Mining Equipment:

 The volume of mining machine and oil box is too small that the amount of lubricating oil is accordingly small. The oil temperature is relatively high so that the lubricating oil must have heat stability and antioxidant activity. 
As to certain mining machines, fine lubricating oil is required to be used in the mines specially in fire or explosion accident
