This paper proposes an approach in modeling a 4x60inch Allis Chalmers Hydrocone Crusher [1] hydroset and presents some numerical simulation results. The mining and quarry industry is one of the industries which extensively use hydrocone crushers, which are a family of cone crushers, for rock size reduction. Field studies have proved that if proper control and management of these machines is undertaken, they can yield an increased production output of more than 30%, in addition substantial savings in both energy consumption per unit ton produced and manpower can be easily realized. In order to achieve these economic benefits, high performance from these machines is expected. Implementing automatic control for such machines would be a great leap towards achieving both economic benefits and more effective fool-proof predictive maintenance. But, unfortunately, for such a control system to be designed, it necessary to make a mechatronical model of this plant. The plant model is able to give us an insight into variations of both the plant gap setting (displacement) and system pressure due to variable loading arising from the crushing process.
