Keestrack crushing in all performance levels

With transport weights of less than 30tonnes are the jaw crusher Keestrack B2 (former Argo), with a jaw width of 1,000mm, and the crusher unit Keestrack R4 (former Destroyer 1011) with add-on screener and oversize material recycler. This also applies to the Keestrack R8 top crusher unit (former Destroyer 1313), that is presented as a highly productive mobile solution in the output range of 450tonnes/hour. “As is the case for all Keestrack crusher units, the heavy construction of the 1,250mm wide roto

With transport weights of less than 30tonnes are the jaw crusher 2992 Keestrack B2 (former Argo), with a jaw width of 1,000mm, and the crusher unit Keestrack R4 (former Destroyer 1011) with add-on screener and oversize material recycler.

This also applies to the Keestrack R8 top crusher unit (former Destroyer 1313), that is presented as a highly productive mobile solution in the output range of 450tonnes/hour.

“As is the case for all Keestrack crusher units, the heavy construction of the 1,250mm wide rotor of the R8 and its four impact bars (diameter: 1,267mm, weight approximately 6,100kg) and a specifically larger crushing chamber for high crushing capacities at a very smooth operation and a long service life of the tools,” says the company.

“The standard active double-deck pre-screening with crusher bypass optimises the crushing result and minimises wear and tear.”

The machine an also have a double-deck add-on screening unit and oversize-grain recirculating conveyor.

“The optional equipment permits the production of three final grains via conventional removable screening media. Large-scale screening surfaces (each of which are 4,500 x 1,500 mm) and widely projecting stockpile conveyors help avoid frequently occurring bottlenecks of bolted-on screeners that are too small, leading to markedly declining production rates.

“As one of the few manufacturers in this performance segment, Keestrack is offering the approximately 70tonne R8, with a hinged four-axle dolly for transporting the similarly compact large machine by trailer (transport width, 3–3.2m; length 16.7–17.8m, and height: 3.67m (including dolly: 4m) in the 49.5tonne basic version, with all the add-on options, including an overbelt magnet.”

    New innovations are underway that will help optimise rock crushing and screening operations and boost quarry efficiency overall - Mike Woof writes. Quarrying is a tough industry that provides enormous challenges to equipment providers as machines and technology have to be rugged, durable and productive. Cutting the cost of production while optimising output has been a major target for suppliers, with new technologies playing an increasingly important role. Taking the long view with regard to increased qu
