Terex adds new crushers.

With the introduction of the Powerscreen Pegson XH320 and XH500, the company has added two new impact crushers to its product range,

The XH320 has been designed for the tough conditions experienced in recycling, demolition and quarrying applications, providing a maximum throughput of 320 tonnes per hour. The new machine features a direct-drive crusher, double deck grizzly feeder with an underscreen and load management system, reducing material entry direct into the chamber, resulting in increased throughput and reduced wear costs. In addition, the machine features an under pan feeder, a new impact chamber with 4-bar rotor, twin-apron design, adjustment assist and hydraulic overload protection.

The larger XH 500, with its maximum 500 tonne per hour capacity, is a primary impactor designed for maximum reduction and productivity. Its key features include a vibrating pan feeder, double-deck live pre-screen, feeder load management system, under pan feeder, direct drive crusher, hydraulic overload protection, hydraulically controlled product conveyor for rebar removal and a new programmable logical controller (PLC) control system.

According to Powerscreen, screen recirculation (SC) versions of both new units will be available imminently - these will allow users to produce finished end product using a single machine.
