Abstract: A method of protecting a roller crusher, having two rollers separated by a gap, from uncrushable objects is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of: detecting an uncrushable object in an in-feed stream of material, opening a gap between said rollers to a by-pass width, which is significantly larger than an operational width, such that said uncrushable object is permitted to pass through said gap, restricting an in-feed to said gap, such that material is fed to said gap at a restricted in-feed rate, determining that said uncrushable object has passed through said gap, reducing said gap to said operational width, and opening said in-feed to said gap, such that material is fed to said gap at an operational in-feed rate. A roller crusher having a protective system for protecting the roller crusher from uncrushable objects is also disclosed.
