Going mobile

摘要

There are many areas of quarrying and aggregates production where stationary equipment still dominates, for reasons such as when the throughput of material is high, it can be difficult to design a mobile plant which is big enough to cope and still remain mobile. In any case, it may still be more efficient and convenient to have a fixed crushing and screening plant. But in many small and medium-sized operations, mobile equipment can have many advantages, and these have become all the more persuasive over the years as set-up has become even quicker and easier, and machines have been designed to be easy to transport. One advantage is that mobile crushers and screens can be positioned next to freshly blasted materials. This saves on haulage equipment and the associated staff, fuel and consumables costs.
