Equipment from MB Crusher has been used on a site in China to process demolition material

The site is located in China’s Jiangsu province and is in a very urban location, immediately above a subway station. Because the area is highly built-up, an increase in the number of trucks to and from the site would cause problems for vehicle traffic in the area, resulting in congestion. This would also have extended completion time for the project. To handle the work, the firm fitted a BF80.3 crusher bucket from MB Crusher on its excavator, this time on a Sany 215 model. This combination was used to crush the rubble, preventing the customer from waiting for materials and also eliminating the need for trucks entering and leaving the construction site.
