Eastern Materials was looking for “ultra-portable” equipment that would minimise downtime when the company needed to move the equipment away from the blasting wall. On recommendation of dealer partner Contractors Sales, Eastern Materials purchased an Anaconda J12 Tracked Jaw Crusher and DF514 Tracked Screen, and then added an Anaconda C12R Tracked Cone Crusher a few weeks later.
The J12 is the primary crusher, breaking down 610 mm (24″) rock into smaller sizes, which are then separated by the DF514 into 29 mm (1 1/8”) minus crusher run sub-base material and 152 mm (6”) plus light stone fill rip rap for New York State. The in between product, the plus 29 x 152 mm (1 1/8” x 6”), is further crushed by the C12R into 29 mm (1 1/8”) minus, #2 stone and dust. The crushers feature automatic adjustment for changing product size on the fly.
The C12R also features a camera on the crushing chamber so the operators can monitor the feed into the cone, as well as metal detectors and belt scales on the conveyors. The biggest advantage of the Anaconda equipment for Eastern Materials is the portability, minimising the company’s downtime for shutdown, transport and startup during blasts.
