The Freedom Series 4450 jaw is designed to help liberate customers from age-old problems at the primary and to empower operators to get more efficiency and productivity from the primary crushing station than ever before, according to McLanahan Corp.

Safety lock pins and hydraulic assist for wear parts change-out make maintenance safer, the company says. The crusher was designed simpler to adjust close-side settings and provide tramp iron relief. Hydraulic rams are isolated from crushing action, allowing longer life and full automation while virtually eliminating toggle migration, McLanahan adds.

The “attack angle” and crushing stroke pattern are engineered smarter to increase capacity up to 15 percent while minimizing wear on jaw dies, the company says.
