Screencore debuts tracked jaw crusher

Screencore, a manufacturer of mobile crushing, screening and stockpiling equipment, introduced its XJ Dual-Power tracked jaw crusher.

Based in Coalisland, Northern Ireland, Screencore says the XJ Dual-Power adds power, production capability and crushing performance to its equipment lineup.

“In line with our design philosophy, the dual-power XJ comes packed with a range of user-friendly features, including remote control feeder and remote unblock facility, as well as hydraulic fold-and-lock Hardox hopper sides,” says Screencore’s Ciarán Ryan. “While all our models are available in dual-power format, our crushers – including the smaller XL model – come with this feature built in, offering several distinct advantages over traditional diesel and hydraulic crushers. Not least of which is a miserly fuel consumption in single digits for liters per hour.

“Environmentally, the XJ checks all the boxes, including both the ‘zero-emissions’ box with its plug-in ability and the ‘low-noise’ box,” Ryan adds. “We believe that the XJ raises the productivity bar substantially for mid-sized crushers.”

Product specs

The XJ Dual-Power is a diesel-electric 40-ft. x 27-ft., 65,000-pound jaw crusher designed for the processing of minerals and recycling construction materials in a compact and easily transportable form, according to Screencore.

Features of the XJ include a jaw level sensor, electric plug in, push-button hydraulic CSS wedge adjustment and a bolted mainframe jaw construction. The crusher is also equipped with a dust suppression system, an overband magnet and an optional deflector plate.

“The XJ represents the culmination of several years of customer feedback and extensive research to incorporate the best features demanded by customers from a mid-sized tracked jaw crusher,” Ryan says. “We have taken the feedback on board to deliver what we believe is a game changer, as it combines productivity with environmental performance. The XJ may be easily moved between sites for maximized operational flexibility, making it ideal for rental companies and businesses with a number of production sites.”

Other features of the XJ Dual-Power according to Screencore include a GenSet Tier 4 engine, a 35.4-in. heavy discharge belt, a hydraulic raise and lower discharge belt, and a stepped grizzly with bypass chute.
