Heavy-duty quarry work is the order of the day for new Doosan DX420LC-3 and DX340LC-3 crawler excavators, together with two new DL550-3 and three new DL420-3 wheel loaders.
Wentvalley Aggregates & Recycling in county Yorkshire in the UK purchased the machines for its Wentbridge site where they work alongside other generation machines, the Doosan DL450 wheel loader and Doosan DX225LC excavator.

Doosan’s DL550 wheel loader digs deep in Yorkshire
Heavy-duty quarry work is the order of the day for new Doosan DX420LC-3 and DX340LC-3 crawler excavators, together with two new DL550-3 and three new DL420-3 wheel loaders.
Wentvalley Aggregates & Recycling in county Yorkshire in the UK purchased the machines for its Wentbridge site where they work alongside other generation machines, the695 Doosan DL450 wheel loader and Doosan DX225LC excavator. The quarry supplies limestone products, including single-size and all primary blended products from crusher runs, clean stone and pipe bedding to Gabian and agricultural lime.
The latest Doosan excavators and wheel loaders are doing day-shift work on production and loading of the company’s crushing and screening plant and vehicles. Wentvalley has invested heavily in crushing technology, including large jaw and cone equipment matched with a state-of-the-art fleet of large screening plant that handles over 600tonne an hour.
Ean Noble, quarry manager, said all the Doosan machines work from 7 am to 5 pm every working day, with the wheel loaders continuously filling trucks with material destined for projects and plants throughout Yorkshire.
The top-of-the-range Doosan DL550-3 wheel loader and the excavators work mainly at the quarry face. But the Doosan DL420-3 and DL450 wheel loaders are also used to stockpile and feed material for a washing plant that produces high-quality washed soft and grit sand together with 40/20/10mm single size stone, to complement the dry screened range of material produced in the quarry.
The new Doosan equipment also works on the tipping facilities at Wentvalley. They take clean concrete and hard core material to be processed as crushed dry screened products or for washing to produce grit sands and recycled washed aggregates. The Doosan DX225LC excavator is used for a range of applications including secondary breaking.
With bucket capacities of 4m3 and 5.4m3, the DL420-3 and DL550-3 wheel loaders meet a range of material-handling needs from loading and transporting granular material to industrial, mining and quarrying applications.
The DX340LC-3 and DX420LC-3 excavators are designed to handle applications such as heavy earthmoving, road building, civil engineering, demolition, quarrying and large scale material-handling.
