The Feed - Quarter 1, 2019 - 5

THE OBJECTIVE
This contractor, who processes recycled asphalt and
concrete, was underutilizing their equipment and staff in
the winter months. By not producing in the winter, the
contractor was forced to relieve the staff for the season.
They also had a large, chassis-mounted horizontal shaft
impactor plant that they were aiming to replace in this
application.

THE SOLUTION
The contractor rented the track-mounted GT440
horizontal shaft impactor plant to run in open-circuit
with their existing cone crusher, followed by another,
closed-circuit cone crusher. Using only the top deck of
the three screens they already had on site, the producer
makes one final product while reducing maintenance and
blinding on the screens. The contractor was able to easily
integrate their new equipment into their current spread.
The GT440 features a robust 42 x 40 Andreas style
horizontal shaft impactor with twenty-five percent more
production than competitive models, a large feed opening
and hydraulically adjustable curtain design.

GT440 HIGHLIGHTS
* Mobile 42 x 40 horizontal shaft impactor (HSI) with
power source options via hybrid technology
* 30% more uptime with continuous crushing and tracking
* On-site mobility and quick set-up provide more flexibility
* Maximize performance and production with proven
Overload Protection System
* Easy access to all controls slowing for easy operation and
maintenance
* Large reduction ratio with maximum performance rotor

THE FIGURES
By utilizing the equipment and crew in the winter months,
this contractor avoids having to lay off their experienced
staff, saving them the incalculable experience that a
seasoned team brings to an operation.
An experienced team is a necessity for any operation.
Rather than dismissing their teams, this contractor wisely
spread out their human resources to preserve an efficient
and effective crew.
