What wonders more is the residiue on the funnel-downward walls.. massive
I worked on the drilling and blasting crew at the Eagle Mountain open pit iron mine down near the Mexican border back in the sixties. I also worked as a signal man at their Kobelco gyrator rock crusher. No massive boulders were ever delivered to their crusher. They were set aside at the blast site and reduced by a hundred pound jack hammer or blasted with a small charge of dynamite.
Wallops My guess is central or South America. The workers are speaking Spanish. It was painful watching that hook float around while some guy off camera is coaching the hook operator. Any progress was purely an accident.

@@AndreasDelleske I watch just about every one of these that comes up. 😐 So I guess yeah. I enjoy watching heavy machinery and what it can do. I imagine what guys way back when doing this by hand one rock at a time. Metal was big bucks back in the day no matter what it was. Someone from back then seeing these machines we have now would be struck dumb.
We have a 4 story cone crusher like this here at a big rock quarry but it has an excavator arm and stick with a pneumatic hammer on it for just this reason, any boulders too big they hammer it or change to claw and pull it out. Its also very useful for cleaning the build up off the cone so nobody has to go down there unless its to change out parts.
Gran responsabilidad de la persona que realiza la voladura para que el material salga con la granulometría material cantera que salga fino ...de lo contrario hay muchos tiempo de paradas por sobre tamaño de material .
I know the blockage clearing hook gets a lot of stick from people, but if you look closely it’s a hook on a cable attached (not very securely) to another gantry hook. So the amount of control you have is minimal.
I wish I could work in this mine driving either the truck or the hook. I have a very stressful job and it seems much better. And the weather is nice too.
[Note: I posted this comment on this channel's other 'blockage' video. I thought it was worth repeating.] All of the criticism from (scathing American?) experts seems a bit pointless to me. Yes, you could avoid jams by pre-processing the bigger boulders in another machine, or employ men to sort the ore before the really big chunks could cause a stoppage, or invest in sophisticated auto-grading and boulder manipulation technology, but that's a lot of extra expense. A LOT. If money's no object and you could afford the wages for the guys to man the other equipment and the extra cost to maintain that extra machinery, maybe that would satisfy the site foreman with one impatient eye on the clock, but someone, somewhere, would be paying out a load of money to keep him happy. I think this setup works well enough. Maybe it's cheaper to run things exactly like this. Rather than handle ALL of the material at least twice when grading it, you just shift the occasional problem pieces. You clear blockages as and when they occur, and hope that for the rest of the time when the crusher's running smoothly that the (significant) savings you're making on manpower, machinery, extra servicing, parts, maintenance, fuel and time will balance out. Whatever. It looks like it's a continuous process and, one way or another, the job's getting done. If it wasn't cost-effective to do it this way, I imagine heads would have rolled and the plant would have shut down long ago. So relax, all you critical experts. It's not your problem. Enjoy the show. It... rocks. 🤭
" If it wasn't cost-effective to do it this way, I imagine heads would have rolled and the plant would have shut down long ago." This is in India. Yes that's basically all that needs to be sain in reply to a comment about costs and efficiency. I'm sure this plant is profitable, for the owners who don't care what the working conditions are like, or about actually paying their workers.
@@vicferrari9380 "Judging by cycle time of the trucks it looks to be keeping up just fine." There are several videos with trucks waiting 20+ minutes for a blockage to get cleared. That means this is an every day occurance.
it is very hard to judge the scale of this "machine"but why not use a excavator type boom with implement at the end to clear obstructions in stead of that rather uncontrollable hook on a gantry ? ?? its way more time effective and one can clean the hopper with more ease
Seems a skillful, experienced operator can do a good job positioning and pulling boulders with the giant hook, even though at first it looks inefficient.
90% + of that feed shouldn't be going through the crusher, primary srceening would skim off the rock that reall need crushing not the tons of powder going through at present. Hook needs a redesign too..
Would it be possible to attach a rope to the hook? Then somebody on the side of the pit could help the crane operator by rotating the hook when it's pointing in the wrong direction.
You have long poles with metal plate on the end why didn't you push the loose rocks down into the crusher, sorry if I was the boss I would have staff clean while waiting for trucks to arrive
They neeed t o redesign that hook so it will grab the rocks better. Try a grappling hook and see how that works. enjoyed the video. (Mississippi Gulf Coast).
seems to me that the hook is shaped like it is so theres less chance of it getting trapped, which would necessitate shutting down the crusher for men to enter and clear it manually
If the technician in charge of blasting knows what he is doing… this should be fine… All these boulders fit well in the crusher. The angles are not aligning properly when the rock go down.
Given the cost of down time while the crusher feed is jammed, the cost of a better system for clearing jams would be recovered in no time. Sadly, corporations don't think like regular humans. The idea of spending ten cents to save a dollar is foreign to them.
Eine Spitze am Haken oder ein Stück von einem alten Reifen mit Rodeldraht befestigt würde das Abrutschen verhindern und dann noch eine Konstruktion für eine gute Führung . Zeit ist Geld ?
Who ever is in charge of the crushers operation needs to replace who is supposed to keep any large rock jams clear. It was somewhat annoying to see the rock jam at the lower right of this videos view. If I worked there I would be firing up someone’s butt.
Great video. I have a suggestion for you guys. You guys should have somebody on a harness with a jackhammer to take off all that dirt around the rim because it would make it run a whole lot better and it's safe. Don't think that somebody's going to fall in because they going to have a harness on them. You should try it out. That's what we did and my old job
I wonder why they don't have springs underneath the panels in the pit near the gyrator so that when there's another blockage instead of using that giant Crane that lowers the hook that just bounces around everywhere and takes longer for the dump trucks to dump their loads and the gyrator to crush the ore effectively and you could have solid controlled vibrations coming from underneath those panels to help dislodge huge chunks of ore. I don't know we only put men on the moon several times over with less computer power than the phone that you're holding we put a nuclear powered Volkswagen on Mars we build airplanes with a 100,000 moving parts filled with highly flammable jet fuel all built by the lowest bidder I'm sure we can come up with something better and more efficient than this primate style.
"I'm sure we can come up with something better and more efficient than this primate style." Ofcourse, but that costs money and the owners of the plant have to pay for that. This plant is in India so it's basically culturally required that nothing is ever done efficiently or safely.
The sidewalls going down to that cone has a ridge/lip and is obviously a problem with rocks hanging on it. They should have made the sidewalls smooth all the way to the cone like a funnel with no lip to catch on. That hook is near useless, it waste a lot of production time.
At least Biden got a long lasting war going on, so the U$ can earn money again and get some production started. U$A can benefit from this for a very long time now. The hook is maybe not at work that much. We only see the few moment's when it is used, and think it is every 5 minutes, all day.
Watching them operate that hook is like watching Ray Charles trying to use a sniper rifle.
LOLOLOL 😂
I heard Ray Charles found your mom just from the smell of it….😀😀😀😀😫😆😆😆😆😆😆

Are you based in Glen Sandra Scotland
oh they have the same things here, theyre just not wanting to use them to get rid of jams
This is so soothing .. I could fall asleep to this .. I use to work at a large quarry like this
I *do* fall asleep to this
Great stuff. Love it when you show the dump truck dumping. So cool👍👍👍👍👍👍
Why is this SO relaxing to watch?? LOL

постоянно, каждый день, месяцами и годами так мучаться с этим крюком, неужели не можно что то придумать более совершенное???
If time is money, you'd be better off getting some old track hoe and put a old jack hammer attachment on it to clear the blockages.
I wonder what will happen then hook comes loose from cable and falls into grusher?
And even with that minimal control the person operating it makes it work
That hook is the claw game at Denny’s
Have you tryed tying a rope to the hook to make it posible to turn it?
Get another hook operator, NOW!!!
Some surprisingly vibrant colors in those rocks.

With gyratories the fines really aren't a problem, they fall right through.

重機ブレーカーなり事前に篩に掛けるなりして 大きい岩は排除して入れる方が良いと思われる

We have a Jack hammer on a boom,one smack and it's history
Kdk video
I like it when they clear the jam.
You have long poles with metal plate on the end why didn't you push the loose rocks down into the crusher, sorry if I was the boss I would have staff clean while waiting for trucks to arrive
Having a long arm excavator on standby would cut the time it takes to unclog the crusher by more than half.
I can watch this all day

They need somebody with great hand-eye coordination.
seems to me that the hook is shaped like it is so theres less chance of it getting trapped, which would necessitate shutting down the crusher for men to enter and clear it manually
Seems silly to keep dumping when it’s mostly backed up wouldn’t it make more sense to clear it out when it is a smaller problem
Eine Frage, ist das Eisenerz nicht magnetisch dann wäre doch ein Electromagnet besser oder 🤷♂️
Good idea, but the entire crusher is made of iron too.
Mesmerized!
Three cheers for the hook!
Sometimes gyratories have to be
sized for the largest rock, not throughput tonnage. Our 60 x 118 still got hangups.
If the technician in charge of blasting knows what he is doing… this should be fine… All these boulders fit well in the crusher. The angles are not aligning properly when the rock go down.
I wonder what the ore looks like on the other end?
Every time I see this thing it is always jammed.
Gotta get "the hook of Thor" in there and unjammer !
That guy's a real pro !
Good god.
There must be a more effective way of unjamming a stuck boulder! That rock looks like it’s affecting output!
It is still processing material even with the stuck rock. Stopping to clear that one rock would affect output
Maybe sort out the oversized while loading trucks?
To tam máte jen 2 auta ?
If they kept the sides clear of build-up the blockages would be less
This causes my anxiety and blood pressure to skyrocket.
Long reach backhoe bucket would be better ,i think.?
Consider that the dump trucks hold 100,000 pounds of material….all falling In to that crusher at the same time…..that’s a very big rock
請問這是採什麼礦？
Must be a hell of a job to service that thing when it's buried under 50 tons of rock above and a void to nowhere below.
that grip thingy has the toally wrong angle at the end it should be pointing way more upward there in line where it is fastened in the wire.
I do beleive the crane operator is his first day on the job..
I watched this at 2x speed setting: this crusher is a beast! Unfortunately the forced commercials are played at normal speed.
ad-blocker for youtube will fix that.
Noticed myself.

Hi, how many diffent rocks & minerals are they crushing? Blue, yellow, purple, red?
Red. They are crushing iron ore, which in that particular location appears to be red.
They keep putting a blue filter on the camera. Makes it look weird like that. The rock is either red or black.
Given the cost of down time while the crusher feed is jammed, the cost of a better system for clearing jams would be recovered in no time. Sadly, corporations don't think like regular humans. The idea of spending ten cents to save a dollar is foreign to them.

What is the outcome of crushing this rock??
Steel ore??
It looks like copper

2. Better, MUCH better method of binding amelioration.
3. See 1.
