Cedarapids, a division of Terex and manufacturer of modular, portable and static materials-processing equipment, debuted the CRC1350S Portable Closed-Circuit Cone and Screen Plant. Designed for high production while maintaining portability, Cedarapids said the CRC1350S is the largest portable closed-circuit cone and screen plant on the market today, remaining permittable with a travel height of 14 ft.
The CRC1350S stands out for its ability to deliver high production at lower costs per ton, the company stated. A key component to this success is the powerful 400-hp TC1300X Cedarapids Cone Crusher. With improved kinematics and a large eccentric throw, this advanced cone crusher produces quality aggregates with superior shape and cubicity.
Complementing the cone crusher is the 7-ft. TSV Horizontal Screen, which enhances production and accommodates a wider range of applications. Its high g-force oval stroke motion and variable slope operation allow it to outperform traditional horizontal screens.
The CRC1350S is equipped with numerous standard features designed to enhance the customer experience and operational efficiency. These include an oversized cone feed hopper with an overflow chute, a straight-line under-crusher conveyor, a metal detector for enhanced safety, a hydraulically powered transfer chute and various axle configurations to facilitate easy plant permitting in all states.
The plant is designed for fast setup and operation, with easy-access maintenance platforms, a hydraulic folding walkway and integrated emergency stop stations to ensure operators quick return to production. The CRC1350S plant delivers increased throughput and quality product shape.
Russ Burns, sales director, stated, “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. This plant combines power, efficiency and portability to meet those demands head-on.”
In a recent 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. Material was fed by a Cat 349 excavator into a Powerscreen 32- 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, which was configured to produce three product variations: railroad ballast at 2- x 7/8-in., 3/4-in. stone, and 1/2-in. minus dust.
The CRC1350S delivered outstanding results, producing an estimated 425 tph, split across the three products. While the plant demonstrated excellent performance, there is potential for even higher production rates with the use of a larger excavator and minor adjustments to the circuit.
The customer expressed high satisfaction with the CRC1350S’s performance in the rail ballast configuration, highlighting the plant’s significant production capacity and ease of transport.
The Cedarapids CRC1350S Closed-Circuit Cone and Screen Plant is now available to order.
