Abstract
A cone crusher with wear indicator. The cone crusher comprises a frame, a head rotatably supported on the frame, a bowl supported on the frame in spaced relation to the head, a liner mounted on one of the head and the bowl, and an indicator for indicating wear of the liner. Preferably, the indicator includes a recess defined by the liner, and the recess is revealed upon erosion of the wearing surface of the liner. Preferably, the cone crusher further comprises a backing material between the liner and the one of the head and the bowl. The backing material preferably fills the recess and is different from the material of which the liner is formed.
