Abstract: A rock drilling rig and method for rock drilling, the rock drilling rig having a first boom unit including a first rock drilling machine provided with a tool and drill bit at the distal end of the tool, and a second boom unit including at least one rack for accommodating at least one drill bit. The first boom unit and the first rock drilling machine therein are configured to collect a drill bit from the at least one rack in the second boom unit.

Abstract: A crusher and a method for controlling a crusher having a first crushing member and a second crushing member defining a crusher setting of a crushing cavity into which material to be crushed is being fed. The method having the steps of: measuring continuously instantaneous load on the crusher; recording instantaneous load peaks exceeding a predetermined target level for the load peaks; keeping track of the number of the load peaks exceeding the predetermined target level during a predetermined period of time; and controlling loading of the crusher on the basis of the number of the load peaks experienced by the crusher during the predetermined period of time.

Abstract: A hydraulically adjustable cone crusher and a axial bearing assembly of a cone crusher, which crusher comprises an hydraulic adjustment cylinder/piston assembly mounted in the space formed between the crushing head and the upper surface of the main shaft for adjusting the setting of the crusher. The pressure medium of the hydraulic adjustment system of the crusher is supplied to the pressure medium space formed, except by the adjustment cylinder/piston assembly, also by at least one bearing element.

Abstract: Malfunctions of sliding bearings of cone crushers used in crushing stone are anticipated by providing sensors in connection to bearing parts, by means of which sensors it is possible to observe increases in friction forces. A beginning bearing damage can be detected by means of sensors at such an early stage, that extensive damage to bearings and to other parts of the crusher can be prevented.

Abstract: Malfunctions of sliding bearings of gyratory crushers used in crushing stone are anticipated by providing sensors in connection to bearing parts, by means of which sensors it is possible to observe increases in friction forces. A beginning bearing damage can be detected by means of sensors at such an early stage, that extensive damage to bearings and to other parts of the crusher can be prevented.
