Best jaw crusher for allanite 70 tph in Norway

For rare earth element (REE) mining in Norway – with significant allanite deposits in the Fen Complex (Telemark), the Høgtuva area (Nordland), and other carbonatite‑hosted occurrences – a 70 tph primary jaw crusher is a critical investment. Allanite is a silicate mineral containing cerium, lanthanum, and other REEs. It is moderately hard (Mohs 5‑5.5) and can be brittle, often associated with quartz, epidote, or calcite. Selecting the right jaw crusher for allanite 70 tph in Norway requires balancing feed opening, liner wear resistance, and energy efficiency while meeting strict European environmental and safety standards (CE marking). OCP Mechanical Company, a factory‑direct manufacturer with over 40 years of experience, supplies Type J jaw crushers designed for European hard rock and industrial minerals, backed by 24/7 online support.

Why a correctly sized jaw crusher is essential for allanite

Allanite is often extracted from hard, abrasive host rocks. For 70 tph, a Type J-600x900 or J-750x1060 jaw crusher with a 75‑110 kW motor is a widely used configuration. At a closed side setting (CSS) of 80‑120 mm, it can deliver 65‑90 tph of minus 100‑150 mm product – ideal for feeding a cone crusher or roller mill for further mineral processing. Many Norwegian allanite operations have successfully used this crusher size, reporting steady throughput and acceptable jaw plate life. The deep crushing chamber helps handle slabby or blocky allanite ore without bridging.

Key features that lower your cost per ton of allanite

When you evaluate the best jaw crusher for allanite 70 tph in Norway, focus on features that directly reduce operating expenses:

• Reversible Mn18%+Cr jaw plates – Offer 30‑50% longer wear life than standard Mn14% in abrasive allanite gangue (quartz, epidote). Typical life: 3,000‑5,000 hours.

• Hydraulic CSS adjustment (optional) – Allows remote setting changes in minutes, reducing downtime – a valuable advantage for varying ore feed.

• Vibrating grizzly feeder (optional) – Removes fines below the CSS before the crusher, extending jaw plate life by 20‑30% and increasing net throughput by 15‑20%.

• Cold‑weather package (recommended for Norway) – Oil sump heater, low‑temperature hydraulic oil, and insulated lubrication lines for winter operation. OCP offers a complete winterization kit.

• Deep crushing chamber – Handles slabby allanite ore without bridging.

Price range and delivery to Norway

A Type J-600x900 jaw crusher with manual CSS adjustment and Mn18%+Cr plates ex‑works ranges from $22,000 to $35,000 USD. A Type J-750x1060 ranges from $35,000 to $55,000 USD. Hydraulic CSS adjustment adds $5,000‑$8,000. A vibrating grizzly feeder adds $10,000‑$18,000. A cold‑weather package adds $2,000‑$4,000.

Shipping to Norwegian ports (Oslo, Bergen, Kristiansand) (CIF) adds $6,000‑$12,000. Import duties and VAT (25%) apply; OCP provides full EU documentation. A starter set of jaw plates, toggle plate, and bearings adds $3,000‑$5,000. Total landed cost is approximately $45,000‑$85,000 USD (NOK 500,000‑900,000).

Many Norwegian allanite operations have recovered the crusher investment within 12‑24 months by improving downstream milling efficiency and reducing recirculation.

How to select the best jaw crusher for your allanite operation

To determine the best jaw crusher for allanite 70 tph in Norway, provide OCP’s engineers with your feed size distribution, desired product size, and gangue hardness. For allanite with low quartz content, Mn14% plates may be cost‑effective. For ore with abundant quartz, Mn18%+Cr is strongly recommended. Consider hydraulic CSS if you frequently change product sizes. A jaw crusher with a deep crushing chamber handles slabby allanite better than a shallow one. OCP offers a free throughput simulation and a detailed quotation with line drawings. For remote Norwegian sites, order a spare set of jaw plates with the initial purchase – shipping lead times can be 3‑4 weeks. We also provide remote commissioning and operator training via video call.

Operational tips for allanite crushing in Norway

• Winter preparation – Use low‑temperature hydraulic oil and engine block heaters if diesel‑driven. Keep the crusher in a heated building or use electric heaters on the oil tank.

• Dust control – Allanite dust can be fine; install a dust collection system (bag filter) to meet Norwegian environmental standards (forurensningsloven).

• Feed preparation – Use a vibrating grizzly feeder to scalp out fines below 30‑40 mm; this reduces wear and increases net capacity.

• Maintenance – Check jaw plate wear every 200 hours; rotate reversible plates when the bottom wears (typically after 1,500‑2,000 hours). Keep a log of CSS adjustments and tons processed.
