TEREX Pegson's X400 Tracked Crushing Plant
TEREX Pegson launcled their latest product, the X400 crushing plant. The X400 is a culmination of detailed research and extensive field trials with a series of eight pre-production prototypes. It is now being launched into the larger European markets and all other markets will be followed of later this year.
This new model is a track-mounted jaw crusher unit with universal appeal and capable of outstanding productivity. This new model is intended to replace the 1100 x 650 Premiertrak, which is the world’s best selling tracked crusher.
Designed to provide unsurpassed levels of uptime with the customer’s needs at the forefront of thedesign process it includes: unrivalled under engine access with hydraulically tilting product conveyor; very low running costs due to the highly efficient direct drive system; hydraulic overload protection system on the XR400 version and easy operation with maximum productivity.
The XA400 has a highly aggressive crushing action with hydraulic crusher setting adjustment. The highswing jaw eases material entry into the crushing chamber and the hydraulic adjustment has been developed to enable crusher setting changes to be made quickly and easily over a wide range. The adjustment is activated without the need to release the draw-back mechanism and this system is particularly suitable for applications where regular jaw setting adjustments are required.
Driven by a Caterpillar 172kW C9 engine, the new X400 series is PLC controlled for optimum performance with finger-tip actuation and simple, automatic start sequence. The highly efficient HFO direct drive system engineered into the plant gives remarkably low fuel consumption figures – as little as 22 litres per hour, depending on the application. In the days of increasing fuel and hydraulic oil prices savings of over £21,000 p.a. in running costs are easily achievable against similar sized competitors’ products. A new style of vibrating grizzly feeder, with an extended twin cartridge grizzly section, actively discourages pegging and blinding. An improved impact area under the product conveyor, at the crushing discharge point, has been introduced and the hydraulically elevating and lowering product conveyor itself has an increased discharged height (3.9m) for even better stockpiling and for transport, this can quickly be lowered to reduce the overall height dimension of the plant. The new X400 series is fully supported by the worldwide TEREX Pegson dealer network.
