The design and development of a new generation high crushing capacity jaw crusher, developed for the first time in Turkey and whose Closed Side Settings (CSS) may be automatically adjusted hydraulically, were investigated in this study. The calculations for the crusher developed for this purpose were included in the paper. The design modifications made to expand the crusher's jaw stroke from 27 mm to 40 mm were documented, and the capacity increase resulting from this was theoretically calculated and proven by a wide range of field tests conducted after the jaw crusher was manufactured. Field testing and their findings were also thoroughly covered in the paper. The forces on the crusher jaw and bearings, the crusher body geometry and crusher material (via fatigue analysis), and the dynamic performance of the system (via vibration analysis of the carrier system) were examined as the outcome of the FEM (Finite Element Method) and DEM (Discrete Element Method) analyses performed after the theoretical calculations. With improvements made based on the findings gained, the theoretical and practical harmony of the created jaw crusher system was realized. Field testing has proven that the adjustment procedure takes no more than 3 minutes and requires no human participation. As a result of this research, a patent application for the created automation algorithm was filed.
