Abstract
The paper considers a software-modelling structure for solving the problem of crushing of solid materials, mountain mineral raw materials of different strength and composition. The task is to study the movement of a piece along the crushing chamber of a cone crusher, the stages of destruction of pieces are considered. Setting the main parameters of the FCC, the working process of the crusher and the parameters of the destruction of pieces in the crushing chamber. The study of the basic characteristics of the movement process, the interaction and destruction of pieces is the main aspect of the work process. More precisely, the issues were examined, on the basis of which the dependencies were compiled, which are used in the algorithm of the model of the working process of FCC at the beginning of the cycle of the mode of movement. One of the processes considered in the article is squeezing a piece between the armors with a subsequent decrease in the distance between the armors.
