Efficient materials production onsite

The use of excavator-mounted equipment has been helping process demolition waste at a site in China.

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.

The facility has taken advantage of the latest developments from Sandvik to improve performance with the replacement of existing quenched steel liners with ceramic inserts. The quarry, located in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, had wear problems with the steel wear protection plates used in the screening process. This cut efficiency while the plates were also noisy. In order to address the problem th

    Demand for telematics technology is growing, as equipment users begin to lean the value of these systems – Alan Dron reports With construction projects increasingly operating to wafer-thin profit margins, any technological assistance that can keep the accounts in the black is welcome. This is particularly the case with those projects where contractors can share a larger slice of the profits if they complete their work ahead of schedule. The downside, of course, is that they also share the pain if the

    Rockster’s DUPLEX System is being used in an extraction operation in Tanzania. The PB Mining Company in Tanzania selected Rockster’s 2-in-1 machine for crushing highly abrasive rock. The extraction firm was formed in 2014 and specialises in the exploration of lead glance, named Galena, the natural mineral form of lead sulphide. This is the most important ore of lead and usually contains about 1–2% silver, a byproduct that far outweighs the main lead ore in revenue. Because of its low melting point, it is e
