Choosing the Right Magotteaux Hammer: Understanding Feed Size and Abrasion Index

At Southern Crusher Spares Ltd, we are proud to stock a full range of Magotteaux hammers designed for a wide array of crushing applications. These hammers—RecYx, NeoX, Xwin Martensitic, and Xwin White Iron—are renowned for their superior wear resistance and performance. Each hammer is engineered to meet the unique demands of specific operational environments, helping you maximize efficiency, minimize wear, and reduce downtime.

Feed Size and Abrasion Index: What Do They Mean?

Feed Size (Y-axis): This refers to the size of the material being fed into the crusher. Larger feed sizes require more robust hammers to handle the increased impact and wear.

Abrasion Index (X-axis): This is a measure of how abrasive the material is. A higher abrasion index means that the material is more likely to cause wear and tear on the hammer, requiring tougher, more wear-resistant materials.

Selecting Your Hammer.

Each of Magotteaux’s hammer lines is designed to handle specific ranges of feed size and abrasion index. Here’s how each hammer fits into the equation:

RecyX

Best for: Medium feed sizes and moderate to high abrasion.

Application: Ideal for recycling applications, the RecYx hammer is designed to withstand abrasive materials such as concrete, asphalt, and other construction debris. It offers high impact resistance and wear life, making it perfect for crushing recycled materials with moderate to high abrasion.

NeoX

Best for: Large feed sizes and high abrasion.

Application: The NeoX hammer is built to handle large feed sizes while resisting wear from highly abrasive materials like quartz or granite. It’s an excellent choice for primary crushers where both impact and abrasion resistance are crucial. NeoX combines hardness and toughness, resulting in an extended lifespan under harsh conditions.

Xwin Martensitic

Best for: Small to medium feed sizes with low to medium abrasion.

Application: The Xwin Martensitic hammer is optimal for applications where the feed material is smaller and less abrasive. It’s commonly used in secondary and tertiary crushers, where precision and durability are key. This hammer’s martensitic steel composition gives it a balanced mix of wear resistance and impact strength.

Xwin White Iron

Best for: Small feed sizes and low abrasion.

Application: If you’re processing less abrasive materials like limestone or coal, the Xwin White Iron hammer is the best option. It is specifically designed for applications that require minimal abrasion resistance but still need strong impact durability. The white iron composition makes it suitable for low-abrasion environments while delivering great cost-effectiveness.

Frequently Asked Questions about Maggateux Hammers

Whats The Difference Between A Manganease & Maggateux hammer?

Manganese Hammers

  • Material: Constructed from high manganese steel (12-14% manganese), providing basic wear resistance.
  • Durability: Known for toughness but limited in performance, making them less effective against hard and abrasive materials over time.
  • Applications: Commonly used in mining, quarrying, and recycling but may struggle in demanding conditions.
  • Cost-Effectiveness: Requires frequent replacements in high-impact situations, leading to higher long-term operational costs.

Maggateux Hammers

  • Material: Made from proprietary advanced alloys, offering significantly enhanced performance and durability.
  • Performance: Engineered for a longer lifespan and reduced downtime, maximizing efficiency even in the most challenging environments.
  • Applications: Ideal for recycling, aggregate production, and other demanding applications where reliability is crucial.
  • Customization: Tailored to specific crushing needs, ensuring optimal output and performance for various materials.

Key Differences

Cost Efficiency: Although Maggateux hammers may have a higher initial investment, they ultimately lead to lower operational costs and greater value over time due to their enhanced durability and performance.

Engineering Superiority: Maggateux hammers utilize advanced materials and innovative designs, while manganese hammers are traditional and less specialized.

Lifespan and Reliability: Maggateux hammers consistently outperform manganese hammers, offering superior longevity and reduced maintenance.

What Are Maggateux Hammers Made From?

Maggateux hammers are made from proprietary advanced alloys specifically engineered for enhanced performance and durability. These materials are designed to withstand harsh working conditions and provide superior wear resistance compared to traditional materials like manganese steel. The exact composition of these alloys can vary, but they generally include high-quality components that optimize toughness, impact resistance, and overall performance, ensuring longer lifespan and reduced downtime in crushing operations.

Where Are They Made?

Maggateux hammers are made in France

Can Maggateux hammers be customized for specific applications?

Yes, Maggateux hammers can be customized to meet the specific needs of different applications. We at Southern Crusher Spares work closely with customers to understand their crushing requirements and material characteristics. This allows us to tailor the design, size, and material composition of the hammers for optimal performance, ensuring they provide the best possible results in various environments, including recycling, aggregate production, and mining.
