In 2026, mines across South America carried out widespread upgrades to jaw crusher tooth plates.
1. Adoption of Mn22Cr2 high‑chromium high‑manganese material, extending the service life of tooth plates to over 900 working hours.
2. Deployment of tooth plates embedded with titanium carbide inserts, whose wear‑resistant service life reaches 2‑4 times that of conventional tooth plates.
3. Customized tooth profiles for tooth plates according to local ore hardness.
4. Laser scanning is applied to monitor tooth‑plate wear to implement condition‑based maintenance instead of mandatory scheduled replacement.
After the renovation, the comprehensive spare‑parts cost for crushing per ton of ore has dropped by more than 40%.
