Mobile crushing and screening plants have proven to be an efficient alternative for the aggregates industry in relation to fixed plants. The possibility of taking them to carry out the processing of the material on site is a relevant factor to reduce costs with the transport of aggregates, in infrastructure projects and temporary works, such as road paving, construction of dams and hydroelectric plants, construction of subway stations, in addition to quarries and mining companies.
These advantages make the Mobile Crushing Set manufactured by ATHOX Mining Solutions one of the most anticipated options at the moment. Mounted on tracks for easy mobility around production sites, the versatile equipment is widely used in the aggregates industry, concrete recycling, mining operations, and can even replace stationary crushing systems or be added to the process to optimize transportation costs.
In turn, the Mobile Screening Set is mounted on structures that are easy to move. It is versatile, indicated both for final classification and for the washing process and intermediate classification of materials such as ores, sand, gravel, stone and others.
Paulo José Alves dos Santos, director of engineering and innovation at Athox Mining Solutions, explains that flexibility and mobility are among the main advantages of using this equipment. “In addition to the possibility of using them within the same work, the sets can be configured to fulfill different functions. The possibility of crushing in different workplaces, for example, is appreciated by different companies and service providers, who can move the sets to where the virgin material is and save money on the operation”, he says. Fixed plants, on the other hand, require a large fleet of trucks to be fed.
Efficiency to crush rocks
According to Paulo, the crushing set works with ATHOX Horizontal Impact Crushers (HSI) used in aggregate operations due to the high quality, cubic product and high capacities in a single piece of equipment. “Plants with crushers are the right solution for anyone looking to combine high crushing capacity with good cubicity of the final product. The mobile crushers are efficient in crushing rocks and materials for recycling and jobs that require high continuous capacity”, he reinforces.
The main benefits of the mobile sets are: large-capacity equipment, consisting of an independent vibrating feeder for cleaning material, conveyor belts, a handling system and a diesel generator to drive the equipment.
In new ventures, choosing mobile plants has the potential to provide different gains, such as equipment startup time. “While the fixed ones require long periods to obtain operating licenses, the search for electricity, the execution of civil work and assembly, the mobile ones basically just need adjustments and checking. In fixed plants, the conclusion of all stages can take up to a year and a half, while a mobile plant starts operating in about six months”, concludes Paulo.
