New to HPE Africa’s range of McCloskey crushing and screening plants, is the recently-updated high-performance I54Rv3 impact crusher, which is an advanced version of the I54Rv2 machine.

This robust mobile impact crusher operates efficiently in various applications, including asphalt and concrete recycling, rock crushing, construction, mining and demolition.

“The I54RV3 impact crusher – which was showcased in April by McCloskey International at bauma 2019 – has new production-boosting features, including a new main conveyor, an impactor transfer chute, a pre-screen with a steeper bottom deck for enhanced material flow and a simplified rear profile for the impactor chamber,” says Rasheel Sukdhoe, McCloskey product manager, HPE Africa – exclusive distributors locally for McCloskey International. “The radial return conveyor of the I54Rv3 features full-length dust suppression control, allowing operators to re-circulate oversize material from the screenbox back to the feed hopper or to radial a complete 90° while running.”

Other features include an open chassis for easy access during maintenance, an optional full-length main conveyor, an optional under-pan under the crushing chamber conveyor, a hydraulic adjustable magnet and a large double-deck pre-screen for more efficient fines removal. This larger crusher pre-screen (1 204 mm x 2 360 mm) maximises crusher efficiency and delivers screened product via a straight chute, to an 800 mm wide side conveyor.

Wide main and side conveyors accommodate a larger volume of pre-screen discharge material and enable improved discharge from the crushing chamber. The stockpile height from the main conveyor is 3 743 mm.

The hopper has hydraulic and side-locking wedges that are easily accessible from the ground.

This 1 200 mm x 1 335 mm impactor, with a 380 kW power rating, has a 1 360 mm x 950 mm feed opening and a 530 – 640 rpm crusher speed.

HPE Africa’s range of McCloskey equipment – comprising jaw, cone and impact (horizontal and vertical) crushers; trommel and vibrating screeners, stacking conveyors and washing systems – has been designed for easy operation, high efficiency, low maintenance requirements and extended service life.
