Sandvik has added the QJ340 Mobile Jaw Crusher to its extensive line of crushing equipment. The QJ340 was formerly known as the Extec C-12+ Jaw Crusher, prior to Sandvik’s acquisition of Extec in 2008. The QJ340 includes a vibratory feeder with automatic control to regulate the feed into the crusher, a hydraulic adjustment system to regulate the product size to be crushed, instant reverse crushing action to assist in clearing blockages, along with a Vogel automatic central lubrication system that increases machine uptime. In addition, the hydraulic legs on these units offer increased stability and servicing capabilities; and a high crushing speed, together with a large feed opening, provide high rates of production with high reduction ratios. The machine’s features along with the design aid in optimum fuel economy and low operating costs. “The QJ340 is a marquee product that highly compliments Sandvik’s portfolio of crushing equipment,” said Dan Allan, president of Sandvik Mining and Construction. “Sandvik now offers a full range of mobile crushing solutions in every size range.” The 12.3 cubic yard-capacity QJ340 can be used in a variety of applications, including concrete crushing in recycling yards or demolition sites, asphalt crushing, and rock crushing in quarries or construction sites.
