Cedarapids, a Terex company, debuted the CRC1350S portable closed-circuit cone and screen plant.
Designed for high production while maintaining portability, the CRC1350S is the largest portable closed-circuit cone and screen plant on the market, according to Cedarapids, remaining permittable with a travel height of 14 ft.
The CRC1350S features a 400 hp TC1300X Cedarapids cone crusher with improved kinematics and a large eccentric throw. A 7-ft. TSV horizontal screen complements the cone crusher, enhancing production and accommodating a wider range of applications.
The CRC1350S also has numerous standard features to enhance the customer experience and operational efficiency, Cedarapids says. These include an oversized cone feed hopper with an overflow chute, a straight-line undercrusher conveyor, a metal detector for enhanced safety, a hydraulically powered transfer chute and various axle configurations to facilitate easy plant permitting in all states.
“Our focus with the CRC1350S was to address what customers consistently tell us they need: higher production, lower costs per ton and ease of mobility,” says Russ Burns, sales director at Terex MPS. “This plant combines power, efficiency and portability to meet those demands head-on.”
Proven performance
In a field test, the CRC1350S was utilized in a high-production railroad ballast application. The project involved processing drilled and blasted granite material into 2-in. minus railroad ballast.
A Cat 349 excavator fed material into a Powerscreen 32-in. x 47-in. jaw crusher with a 5-in. closed side setting, reducing the granite to 9-in. minus. From there, the material was conveyed to the Cedarapids CRC1350S, configured to produce three product variations: railroad ballast at 2 in. x 7/8 in., 3/4 in. stone and 1/2 in. minus dust.
The CRC1350S produced an estimated 425 tph, split across the three products. There is potential for even higher production rates with the use of a larger excavator and minor adjustments to the circuit, Cedarapids says.
