MACKORN › AI selection plugin › Engineering firms & EPC

For engineering firms, consultants and EPC contractors

You specify the equipment long before anyone buys it. We give you the data, the method and the calculations to specify a hydraulic cone crusher — and to defend the choice in a feasibility study.

Why this page exists

In most mining projects the crushing circuit is fixed during the feasibility or pre-feasibility study — by the engineering firm, not the mine. Getting onto a design house vendor list means being specified years before a purchase order exists. That happens on technical merit, not on price. So this page is written for the engineer, not the buyer.

What we provide to engineering firms

Documented selection method

Single-cylinder hydraulic cone crusher selection based on the Whiten (1972) steady-state model and the Bond (1952) energy relationship. Every output carries assumptions, sources and open items — it is built to be checked, not trusted.

Free engineering tool

A 19-function open-source plugin covering selection, plant configuration, product-size simulation, circulating load, cost estimation and a 14-section proposal skeleton. Run it on your own duty and audit the numbers.

Datasheets and dimensions

NH series (9 models) and NS high-speed series (4 models): cavity options, closed-side setting ranges, maximum feed size, installed power, weight and outline dimensions.

Flowsheet simulation

Multi-stage crushing plus screening with closed-circuit population-balance iteration: per-stage P80, circulating load and mass balance. Useful for trade-off studies.

Compliance documentation

Machine documentation for your technical specification. Tell us which standard and which project stage and we will supply what is required.

Named technical contact

A direct technical contact for project-specific questions — not a general sales inbox.

How to work with us

1. Send the dutyOre type, feed size distribution, target product and capacity. If you have a flowsheet in mind, send it.
2. We return a documented selectionStage count, cavity, CSS, unit count and power — with the assumptions and the simulated product curve.
3. You audit itRun the same duty through the public tool. The calculation is reproducible; that is the point.
4. Vendor listingIf the equipment suits the project, we will complete your vendor pre-qualification documentation.

FAQ

Can we reproduce your calculations independently?

Yes, and we encourage it. The simulation is based on published models — Whiten (1972) for the steady-state size distribution and Bond (1952) for specific energy — implemented independently with no proprietary third-party data. The plugin is open source under the MIT licence.

Do you provide equipment datasheets for specifications?

Yes. Cavity options, CSS ranges, maximum feed size, installed power, weight and outline dimensions for the NH series (9 models) and NS high-speed series (4 models). Tell us the project stage and required format.

How do you handle parameters that are not measured?

We do not invent them. Unknown fields return null, and literature defaults are explicitly labelled as literature rather than measured. Conflicting sources are presented side by side. For a feasibility study you should calibrate against measured plant data — we provide the calibration workflow.

Are you on any approved vendor lists?

We are working to be. Send us your pre-qualification package requirements and we will complete them.

What is your target project size?

From several hundred tonnes per hour in aggregates up to 1,500 t/h and above in metal mines, across the NH and NS ranges.
