Project Overview
Our recent project involved the challenging task of crushing 500 tons of concrete fence panels reinforced with full rebar at a local construction site. This material required efficient processing to enable reuse directly on the project, minimising waste and transportation costs.
Solution and Execution
Utilising the Caimen 150 Crusher, known for its agility and powerful crushing capabilities, we tackled the job with remarkable speed and efficiency. The operation, which took less than three hours, resulted in the separation of approximately 4 tons of metal, which was subsequently sold by our client, adding an economic advantage to the project. The remaining crushed hardcore was used on-site for levelling, fulfilling our client's needs for material reuse and site preparation.
Advantages of Using Caimen 150 Crusher
- Speed: The Caimen 150's advanced crushing technology allowed for the rapid processing of a large volume of reinforced concrete.
- Mobility and Convenience: Unlike larger, slow-speed grinders, the Caimen 150 features a skip bottom that fits easily on a hook loader wagon. This design enabled quick setup and removal, taking only about 10 minutes, significantly reducing haulage costs.
- Economic and Environmental Benefits: The project not only saved on haulage costs but also generated revenue from the sale of separated metals and reduced environmental impact through on-site recycling.
For crusher hire we offer various drums and crushing heads to cater to different needs, ensuring versatility across multiple applications. For this crushing project, the concrete drum was the best solution.
Conclusion
This project exemplifies the capabilities of the Caimen 150 Crusher in a real-world application, demonstrating its superiority in speed, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. The ability to quickly set up and remove the equipment, coupled with the significant savings in haulage costs, positions the Caimen 150 as an ideal choice for similar future projects aiming for sustainable and economical construction practices.
