New control system for Kleemann’s cone crusher
CONEXPO CON/AGG 2017 REVIEW
At CONEXPO CON/AGG 2017, the
MOBICONE MCO 11i PRO cone crusher
with the brand new SPECTIVE control
concept was one of four advanced-design
mobile crushing plants shown at the
Wirtgen stand.
Designed for tough and demanding
quarry applications, the high-performance
cone crusher is powered by a diesel-
electric drive and achieves an output of up
to 470 t per hour. The plant can also be
equipped with an external power supply
for even more efficient operation. As
the hydraulics are installed in the lower
part of the plant, the MCO 11i PRO has
a low centre of gravity, and thus more
stability, reducing noise and vibrations
to a minimum. All plant components can
be easily reached from the ground or via
spacious work platforms for maintenance
work and refueling the plant.
With SPECTIVE, Kleemann presented its
new, intuitive control concept for the first
time at ConExpo. SPECTIVE is simple to
understand and supports the operator in
his or her work. The use of clear symbols
makes all plant functions recognisable at
a glance. Only the information relevant for
the machine operation is displayed. Similar
in presentation to a smart phone, the
operator is guided by the control system,
reducing the potential for operating errors.
In addition, data relating to the machine
operation can be retrieved via the control
system, and the levels of diesel and lube
oil, for example, can be viewed in the plant
cockpit. SPECTIVE is available initially for
the MOBICONE MCO 11i PRO and the
latest impact crushers in the MOBIREX MR
EVO2 series.
