CH550 delivers improved productivity
325 Sandvik claims that its 18.9tonne CH550 cone crusher offers customers good material shape and low operating costs in a range of material applications.

A development of the company’s Hydrocone design, the CH550 can be configured for either secondary or tertiary crushing applications with a wide performance range.

The firm’s ASRi automatic setting system is included as standard, delivering optimum material reduction and end product shape and ensuring that the machine is used within its design capacity.

The drive motor has the highest possible energy efficiency classification, resulting in reduced power consumption per tonne produced.
The CH550 produces up to 30tonnes less CO2 emissions per year, as well as reducing operating costs.

The CH550 has a rated power of 330kW and a head diameter of up to 1,100mm. By using just three eccentric bushings customers can cover up to 90% of material output sizes.

Stand: F6.616/1

    JCB is now fitting its new Tier 4 JCB Ecomax diesel engine to its latest rough terrain forklift range. The engine delivers the same 55kW output as the previous Dieselmax motor, but meets the Tier 4 emissions regulations without the need for a diesel particulate filter or an SCR exhaust after-treatment system. This reduces running costs for customers and the Ecomax engine is being fitted to all four models in JCB’s RTFL range: the 926, 930, 940 and 950.

    January 6, 2017
    Engineering firm Ricardo is part way through a research programme to develop an advanced energy recovery system that can be integrated into an excavator’s hydraulic system. Known as the High Efficiency Excavator (HFX) project, the system uses a 5kg carbon fibre flywheel that is encased in a vacuum-sealed cartridge, which contributes to minimising friction. The flywheel is spun at speeds of up to 30,000rpm using a magnetic coupling, which is driven from a hydraulic motor. Power for the hydraulic motor comes
