Project Profile

1-On-2 Feeding PRB Coal to Two Crushers
Industry
Powder River Basin Coal Mining
Application
Run of mine coal is fed to two large roll
crushers via a transfer chute that provides
an accurate and controllable split of the
proportion of coal flow fed to each crusher.
Material
Powder River Basin Coal
Objective
•t Provide a system capable of delivering
an accurate and controllable split of
material flow
•t Deliver coal to each crusher by evenly
spreading across the full feed width of
each crusher
Transfer Detail
Feed belt is a 72” wide 8,000 tph system
feeding two roll crushers.

Challenge
The mine needed a system capable of controlling
flow to their two large roll crushers, which are the life
line for feeding the mine’s rail car loading operations.
In addition to being capable of feeding either crusher
individually and providing a controllable split of the
material to both crushers, the system had to provide
an even feed of material across the full feed width of
each crusher.

Tasman Warajay Solution
Flexco designed and fabricated a 1-on-2 transfer chute with Tasman
Warajay Technology™ which included removable chrome carbide
overlay wear liners.
The system features Flexco’s proprietary bucket diverter technology
coupled with a spreader section in front of each crusher.

Result
The new Flexco transfer chute provides the operational flexibility
this high-productivity mine requires. The mine is now able to
control the split of material to both crushers. The chutes also allow
the material to be evenly distributed to the crusher, preventing
uneven wear of the rollers.
