Atlas Copco’s line of bucket crusher attachments offers higher outputs and increased reliability compared to the company’s previous models. Atlas Copco’s BC 2500 and BC 3700 bucket crushers process about 80 percent more material as a result of their hydraulic drive systems.
The BC 2500 fits 24- to 33-ton carrier weight classes, and the BC 3700 fits 30- to 42-ton carrier weight classes. According to Atlas Copco, the bucket crushers allow contractors to increase the versatility of carriers, especially on demolition, recycling and road construction applications.
The company adds that both attachments feature powerful components that allow their operators to crush up to 110 tons of material per hour. The drive system – two hydraulic motors and a timing belt – generates high torque needed for powering the jaw crusher. Additionally, the attachments come with a reverse function to easily remove any blockage pushing material back through the inlet.
