REMco introduced the 2040 series vertical shaft impact (VSI) crusher, which replaces the company’s 1530 series.
REMco, which showcased the 2040 series at ConExpo-Con/Agg, says the new crusher has a variety of features that make it a more capable and user-friendly machine. The crusher has horsepower ratings ranging from 200 to 400 hp in both single- and dual-drive motor configurations and throughput capacities from 110 to 310 stph.
Additionally, expanded rotor options for RockMax and SandMax autogenous models are available from 27 to 33 in. in three-port, four-port and five-port configurations, handling feed sizes up to 4 in. Expanded open shoe table options are also available for the ST/AR model, ranging from 32- to 36-in. four-shoe configurations, with feed size up to 4 in.
Another feature is a dual taper rotor boss and taper lock system that provides secure holding and quick release. New modular variable-volume autogenous crushing chambers for both the RockMax and SandMax models offer in-field adaptability to different material conditions.
Also, REMco says a new two-position anvil system with internal holder offers a longer service life and better wear metal utilization. It’s available for the hard-parts and semi-autogenous ST/AR models of the 2040 series. A modular material distributor and feed tube holder, meanwhile, features adjustable feed tube depth for longer service life and improved wear metal utilization.
According to REMco, a new heavy-duty three-point swing-lock lid-holding system eliminates hammer wedges and safety pins, delivering quick and easy access to the chamber and rotor. A pre-engineered oil system integrated with the crusher’s electrical system, meanwhile, offers a plug-and-play connection to reduce installation time.
REMco says the combination of these features makes its VSI easy to install and service. It is available with a pre-engineered modular installation kit or portable trailer mount options.
