A range of products will be shown by 237 Indeco, the Italian hydraulic breaker manufacturer. The company was a pioneer of the intelligent breaker system that responds to the hardness of the material being broken and has been an innovator in the segment. An American company struggling with hard rock saw Indeco develop and build the world's biggest hydraulic breaker in 2008, the HP 18000. At 4.6m high and weighing 11.05tonnes, it can handle tools with a diameter of up to 250mm.

Indeco now offers four fixed and five rotating pulverisers and its Multi, a multi-function product in three different models. With the jaw set changed it can be used as a shear, demolition crusher or pulveriser. Indeco’s first ISS shears, designed for recycling ferrous materials, were launched in 2010 and are available in five different models. The latest arrival is the IDG demolition sorting grab.

Produced and marketed a few years ago by Indeco North America and Indeco Australia, the new series IBS pedestal boom secondary breaking system was presented to the European markets at 688 Bauma 2013. Mounted over the mouth of a primary crusher, it is used to reduce bridged and oversized material which slows down crushing operations.

    Hydraulic breaker specialist Indeco has developed new fuel-saving technology for its entire range of breakers. Compared to other breakers of the same size and capacity, Indeco’s can now deliver fuel savings of around 20%. “If you consider quarrying, by far the biggest cost is the fuel that the excavator consumes. If you can reduce the fuel used, you reduce your overall cost of production significantly,” said Indeco’s marketing director Michele Vitulano. “Reducing fuel consumption is also important for ro

    Indeco has launched a heavy-weight jaw attachment, the IDC 70. Designed for demolition of reinforced concrete structures, the jaw can be fitted on excavators of 70 tonnes and above.

    Indeco spent six months developing the jaw, working to optimise its weight-to-power ratio and adding features designed to reduce maintenance and increase productivity. Weighing in at 7200kg, 3.35m long and 0.65m wide, the IDC 70 has a maximum jaw opening of 1.8m, which the Italian manufacturer says beats rival products in the same class.
