What are Manganese Wear Plates?
Manganese wear plates (manganese pallets) are wear-resistant metal plates used in crushing machines such as crushers, jaw crushers, and hammer mills in stone crushing plants. They are made of high-manganese steel and protect the parts of the crusher that come into direct contact with stones, minerals, or ores.
What Are Their Uses?
-
Protect the body and components of crushers from wear.
-
Absorb impact caused by the hardness of stones and ores.
-
Improve machine performance and efficiency during crushing.
-
Extend the lifespan of parts, reducing maintenance and spare part costs.
-
Reduce dust and shock effects, ensuring safe operation.
How Do They Work?
-
High-manganese steel is extremely resistant to impact and abrasion.
-
During crushing, stones strike the plates, and the plates absorb the energy.
-
The plates prevent the impact and abrasive effects from reaching critical machine components.
-
Over time, the surface of manganese plates hardens (work hardening), increasing durability, which is especially advantageous for crushing very hard stones.
Where Are They Used?
-
Quarries and crushing plants: granite, basalt, limestone, etc.
-
Mining industry: iron, copper, nickel, gold, zinc ores.
-
Aggregate production: sand, gravel, crushed stone for construction.
-
Cement and concrete production: raw material preparation and grinding.
