With its largest ConExpo-Con/Agg booth to date, Eagle Crusher used the March 3-7 show to promote its new Talon line, as well as its E-Plant and 1400-OC portable impactor plant.
The Talon line
Within the Talon line, Eagle Crusher displayed the new TalonTrax mobile crushing plant alongside the new TalonStack mobile stockpiling conveyor.
The new TalonMax (TM-15) impactor is at the heart of the TalonTrax, featuring an open-rotor design. The impactor features a new, thicker blowbar design to increase overall wear life.
“We’ve developed this whole new Talon line all the way down to the impactor,” says Daniel Friedman, vice president of marketing at Eagle Crusher. “We’ve always sold the UltraMax line as the only impactor with a solid steel rotor. But that’s not always necessary.”
Friedman says the overall box design of the TM-15 impactor is effective.
“We’ve reduced some of the weight and created more of a semi-open rotor design,” he says. “It’s not designed to allow rebar to pass through and get tangled like many open-rotor designs can. It’s still technically a closed rotor, just more open.”
And that, Friedman says, makes it lighter in weight, easier to transport and simpler to manage.
“True to Eagle Crusher, it’s simple to operate and simple to maintain,” he says. “Crushers will break. The environment they operate in is not easy. So keeping things simple matters.
“You don’t want a bunch of computers where one software bug shuts everything down and the engine can’t even start,” Friedman adds. “There’s also a fully removable discharge conveyor so you can access the under-crusher area if there’s ever an issue, or for cleaning, belt changes or conveyor maintenance.”
Eagle Crusher’s TalonStack track-mounted stockpiling conveyors also feature a relatively simple design, Friedman says.
“There’s a self-powered option and a dual-power option,” he says. “If you’re hooking it up to one of our plants with that option, you only need to run one engine. You could have a 1400 closed-circuit plant with several Talon stacking conveyors and run everything with one engine – the crusher, feeder, screen and stackers.”
The E-Plant
Eagle Crusher’s E-Plant, which originally debuted at ConExpo-Con/Agg in 2014, is one piece of equipment end users need to see in person to fully understand, according to Friedman.
While it shares similarities with the company’s 1200 closed-circuit plant, the unique layout and increased capabilities make the plant well suited for high-production, multi-product operations.
“With the three-deck screen, you can produce three spec products,” says Friedman, adding that buying activity at ConExpo-Con/Agg was strong. “And with the overs and the grizzly discharge, you can produce up to five products simultaneously. In situations like asphalt milling, you’re talking hundreds of tons an hour off one plant.”
While the E-Plant in 2026 doesn’t have anything wildly new since it debuted 12 years ago, Friedman says the plant has been refined across the last decade.
