This crusher machine is built to handle quarry work
Not Your Typical Crusher
In most quarries there is a single massive initial crusher usually known as the primary crusher that makes the first mechanical breaking of the rock. This means that once a section of rock has been blasted, the pieces of rock, typically 3-ft. in diameter and smaller, are loaded onto a haul truck and taken to the primary mobile crusher , which then breaks the rock down into smaller pieces. In a large quarry that means that those haul trucks, which must be loaded by a piece of equipment, are expensive to own and consume massive amounts of fuel. The runs also become longer and longer as the quarry face moves farther from the stationary crushing operation.
The idea behind the LB3860 is to move a conventional stationary jaw crusher machine to the rocks that need to be crushed instead of bringing the rocks to the crusher, according to Patton. Conveying rock is the more cost-effective form of transportation and is nearly impossible with shot rock. The cost of just one 60 ton (54 t) haul truck is well above a million dollars and an established quarry would typically need several trucks to maintain production.Zenith also has sand making machine for sale.
This machine is built to handle quarry work, not to be confused with the far smaller machines that are used for onsite recycling operations. Dependability and longevity are desirable components of any equipment and the Telsmith J3858 hydraulic jaw has been operating around the world since 1998. Eurotrack did a complete finite element analysis of the chassis with real world data from operating 3858 crushers to ensure a track and carriage capable of handling the stresses of long-term crushing. The Cummins QSX15 500 hp (373 kW) engine is complemented with Kawasaki hydraulic VDP pumps, PT Tech hydraulic clutch and a triple power transmission (TPT) specially designed for crawler crusher use. This package is designed to work together to reduce fuel consumption to a minimum.
