:: The 1080 Track-Mounted Cone Crusher System from Fintec

Fintec Crushing and Screening Ltd., based in Northern Ireland, introduces its Fintec 1080 Track-mounted Cone Crusher system to the U.S. aggregate market. This mobile 385 hp cone features high strength and high capacity with high-reduction performance, all-in feed and direct hydraulic drive - producing material of excellent shape and quality for aggregate operations.

With its own solid foundation of industry engineering veterans, Fintec has worked in tandem with Sandvik to combine the Fintec expertise in track-mounted chassis designs with Sandvik's quality crushing equipment. Track-mounted plants are becoming more popular in aggregate applications because their mobility allows the crushing and screening system to follow the quarry face, reducing trucking costs. The Fintec 1080 Cone Crusher joins the Fintec equipment line, including the Fintec 1107 Track-Mounted Primary Jaw Crusher, and the Fintec 542, Fintec 570 and Fintec 640 Track-Mounted Screening Plants.

The Fintec 1080 Cone plant features a Sandvik 385 hp H3800 crusher, developed with the Sandvik CSC (cubical shape crushing) technique to produce high quality material for today's tight spec standards. With a hopper capacity of 6.5 cubic yards and a maximum feed opening of 7-½ inches, this hydraulic-adjust crusher will allow a coarse closed-side setting (CSS) of ½ inch to 1-½ inches and a medium CSS of 1/3 inch to 1 inch. Crushing chambers are available for extra coarse to extra fine applications.

The Fintec 1080 track-mounted cone crusher has many user-friendly automated features. For example, a level monitor controls the feed rate to ensure choke feeding of the crusher, while a semi-automatic setting regulation system optimizes production and tracks liner wear. A 40-inch-wide hydraulic-folding feed conveyor allows easy access from above the crusher for maintenance. The hydrostatic crusher drive is controlled by a remote radio console. The Fintec plants' compact designs and transport-friendly weights allow them to be moved easily from site to site on a lowboy trailer. The track-mounted plants feature quick and easy setup and operation. Onsite mobility is achieved by simple controls, sturdy 20-inch tracks and a Cat Tier III compliant engine.

The Fintec track chassis and Sandvik cone crusher are products of knowledge and experience optimized by Finite Element Analysis. Each product is tested virtually through this software for stress, strain, shock, deformation, thermal loading, vibration and noise under a wide range of load conditions, resulting in excellent reliability.
