An In Pit Crusher

FLS | Empowering the future of mining

In open pit mining two different options for extracting and hauling material have been established. On the one hand, shovel and truck only, and on the other hand, in-pit crushing and conveying (IPCC). Energy efficiency and minimising operation costs are the main decision factors when choosing mining technology.

The SMIPCC is a system where the in-pit crusher is located in the pit and is relocated after 1–2 years, depending on the operations of the specific mine (Tavakoli et al. 2011; Hay et al. 2019). The SMIPCC is characterised by a crusher station located not more than 2 km from the mine face operations depending on the size of the open-pit mine.


Evaluating the semi-mobile in-pit crusher option through a …

Material handling is a crucial aspect of open pit mining operations, involving truck haulage and conveyor transport system. One innovative approach to enhance the efficiency of the material handling operations is the implementation of the In-Pit Crushing and Conveying system (IPCC), which places the crusher inside the pit and the conveyor belts in a safer area.
