KPI-JCI
KPI-JCI’s Kodiak Plus Series cone crushers provide aggregate producers with the efficiency they need to keep their machinery up and running and meet their financial goals. Roller bearings provide a higher crushing efficiency, require less oil conditioning and can operate in a wider range of climates. The anti-spin cone brake prevents the cone head from spinning, which improves safety by reducing the potential to eject material out of the chamber. This protects the internal components and provides a lower manganese wear cost. The MILO (machine-interface-logistics-operation) PLC control system provides intuitive and reliable crusher operation. It can utilize full automation capabilities, including making adjustments, issuing warnings and shutting down the crusher, if necessary. The Kodiak Plus is the heaviest and strongest cone crusher in its class, the company says. KPIJCI.com Photo: KPI-JCI Keep Reading
NSK
NSK’s SAF pillow blocks are ideal for meeting the harsh conditions found in the mining and aggregates industries. Manufactured with heavy-duty cast iron and available in a number of sizes, the blocks keep water and contaminants away from the bearing while keeping lubrication inside the housing. The triple-ring labyrinth seal comes standard on all housings with stronger sealing options available where contamination is at a higher risk. Cross porting removes heat from the bearing when used in circulating oil systems. Landing platforms accommodate vibration and other types of sensors. Bigger inlet holes offer superior performance in high-temperature applications, while temperature strips prevent the potential damage that can result from overheating. All NSK SAF pillow blocks are easily interchangeable with a full range of other manufacturers’ units. NSKAmericas.com Photo: NSK Keep Reading

The TeleStacker is the product of market requests for longer conveyors featuring wider belts and enhanced productivity. Superior engineered the FB undercarriage support system with enhanced strength and support in critical stress points, effectively reducing the deflection of the TeleStacker conveyor. The undercarriage is made of durable steel and features a tubular-braced structure to prevent twisting and shifting. Superior-Ind.com Photo: Superior-Ind Keep Reading
Fenner Dunlop Engineered Conveyor Solutions
Fenner Dunlop’s UsFlex conveyor belting has longitudinal rip resistance whose rating, according to the company, is more than three times more effective than those of multiple ply belts because of a unique straight-warp construction. Fenner Dunlop says the conveyor belting provides more than twice the impact resistance of conventional plied belting. The added toughness means the belt will not be easily damaged in the loading and conveying of large, sharp material. UsFlex is available in both single- and dual-unit carcass designs, with tension ratings ranging through 1800 lbs. per in. of width. Additionally, UsFlex has a unique carcass-binder system, which acts as a built-in breaker to resist impact, rip and puncture. FennerDunlopAmericas.com Keep Reading

BTI: BXR160
At 16,000 ft-lbs, the BXR160 is designed for rugged, continuous duty for use in demanding breaking applications. It offers an extra-long stroke design, which improves the power-to-weight ratio of the breaker, providing the widest carrier range (120,000 to 220,000 lbs.) and power available, the company says. Precise tolerances between the piston and cylinder provide high efficiency, blow rate and power. Large cross-section upper and lower shock-absorbing isolators reduce vibration feedback to the carrier. BTI's exclusive front head restraint system tightly guides the front head within the housing, reducing loading to the tie rods and the upper portion of the breaker. A narrow box housing design is well suited to tight trenching conditions. RockBreaker.com Keep Reading
