Macleod Construction in the UK is growing its business operations and is investing its two quarries. To maximise production from the quarries, and to produce aggregate for construction projects, the firm needed to source a tracked crusher. The crusher had to be highly productive, tough and versatile and also reliable due to the site's remote location.
Macleod has opted to buy a QJ340 crusher from
With the first unit having proven successful, Macleod Construction has since bought more Sandvik mobile crushers and screens for its fleet, with the QH330 cone crusher, and the QA331 tracked three way split screener being recent additions. The QH330 tracked cone crusher can help meet tough product quality demands that are due to the tightening of aggregate specifications and is said to ensure the production of material of high quality and shape. A hydroset system provides safety and setting adjustment functions, as well as incorporating a heavy duty hydraulic cylinder which supports the main shaft. The QA331 is a three way split screener developed from the QA330, but with improved screening capacity.
