Terex® MACS plant now offers the new MVP450X cone crusher
The Terex® MACS plant is designed to be a highly mobile, high capacity, complete crushing and screening system. The MACS® name stands for Mobile Aggregate Crushing System because it is a complete “system”. Now, the MACS plant offers the newest generation Terex® MVP450X cone crusher. The MVP450X boasts numerous features that increase productivity and ease of use. Major new enhancements include high speed clearing of jammed material and quick crusher separation capability for faster manganese changes. The MACS trailer designs allow easy mobility. The crushing and screening units travel under 4115 mm high and under 3660 mm wide. Interplant conveyors are designed into the units so that separate transfer conveyors are not required. Folding conveyors and walkways set up using on-board hydraulics, thus eliminating the need for cranes or lifts. Also, large hydraulic support legs level and stabilize the units to speed setup.
The entire system utilizes industrial electric drives so that the system can be powered by either high efficiency generators or line power when available. The unique layout of the system provides operator visibility of the entire circuit from a central pop-up control house. High quality belt wipers and skirted conveyors are utilized throughout to reduce spillage. Maintenance is reduced since all components such as gear boxes, belt idlers, pulley bearings, 3-ply vulcanized belts, and flashings are selected for long life and low maintenance. Instant cone reset, strategic rock shelves and the TOPS 2.0 oil filtration system are additional maintenance reducing features. Common components are utilized throughout the plant to simplify support and reduce the number of different parts.
