Installation & Commissioning

Tracked mobile crushing and screening equipment is designed for rapid deployment. The absence of fixed foundations is the point. But rapid deployment does not mean unsupported deployment — SUHMAN provides structured installation guidance and commissioning assistance for every unit shipped.

Pre-Delivery

Before shipment, each unit leaves the SUHMAN facility in a tested and verified condition. Full-load operational testing is completed at the factory. This means the equipment arrives at site in a known state, not a presumed one.

With every unit, SUHMAN supplies:

  • Installation and operation manual
  • Hydraulic system schematic
  • Electrical wiring diagram
  • Maintenance schedule and service intervals
  • Spare parts reference list with part numbers

On-Site Installation

Tracked mobile crushers and screening plants do not require civil foundation work or fixed infrastructure. On arrival at site, the installation sequence covers the following:

Single Unit

  1. Offload and position on prepared ground surface
  2. Unfold and secure conveyor systems
  3. Connect fuel or power supply
  4. Hydraulic pressure check and system bleed if required
  5. Control system power-up and parameter verification
  6. Initial no-load run

A single tracked mobile unit can typically be production-ready within a few hours of offload, under normal site conditions.

Multi-Unit Train (jaw + cone or jaw + impact + screen)

  1. Sequential positioning and alignment of units
  2. Inter-unit conveyor connection and tensioning
  3. Cross-unit control system integration where applicable
  4. Full-train no-load run, then loaded trial run

Full train commissioning typically takes one to three days depending on configuration complexity and site conditions.

SUHMAN Support During Commissioning

Remote Video Guidance

Available as standard — no additional charge

SUHMAN's technical team can walk through the installation and commissioning sequence in real time via video call, verify settings, and assist with any issues that arise during initial startup.

On-Site Engineer Dispatch

Available on request

Available for projects where remote guidance is not sufficient, or where the customer requests direct presence. Availability and associated cost depend on destination country and project scope.

Commissioning Checklist

Before declaring a unit in service, the following should be verified:

Mechanical

Verification
  • All fasteners torqued to specification
  • Jaw plate or liner installation confirmed
  • Conveyor belt tension and tracking
  • Guards and covers in place

Hydraulic

Verification
  • Oil level at specification
  • No visible leaks at fittings, hoses, or cylinders
  • Crusher setting (CSS) adjusted to required output size
  • Hydraulic folding components locked in operating position

Electrical & Control

Verification
  • All sensors responding correctly
  • Emergency stop function verified
  • Belt speed and load monitoring active

Trial Run

Verification
  • No-load run: minimum 15 minutes, check for abnormal noise or heat
  • Loaded run: introduce material progressively, verify output size and capacity

Operator Handover

At the conclusion of commissioning, SUHMAN conducts an operator handover session covering:

01

Daily pre-start inspection routine

02

Startup and shutdown sequence

03

Crusher setting adjustment procedure

04

Recognising and responding to common fault conditions

05

Maintenance schedule overview

Handover is conducted on-site where an engineer is present, or via structured remote session.

Site Requirements

SUHMAN equipment does not require prepared foundations. However, the following site conditions affect commissioning time and operational stability:

Ground Surface

A reasonably level, load-bearing surface is required. Soft or waterlogged ground will require compacted fill or steel plates under the tracks. Gradient should not exceed the equipment's specified operating angle.

Access

Sufficient clearance for the transport vehicle and offloading equipment (typically a crane or excavator for offload, depending on unit weight).

Power or Fuel Supply

Diesel units require fuel access on-site. Electric or hybrid configurations require a stable power supply at the specified voltage and phase.
