The Pioneers in "Hybrid" Crushing

SBM Mineral Processing will participate in CONEXPO-CON/AGG in Las Vegas for the 4th time in a row. The Austrian processing specialists will showcase the track-mounted JAWMAX^® 400 jaw crusher. Like all "SBM Mobiles" – a total of 12 track-mounted JAWMAX^® jaw crushers and REMAX impact crushers between 22,250 and 160,000 kg operating weight (maximum output 250 – 800 t/h) – it features one of the most advanced diesel-electric drive concepts on the market. A combination of fuel-efficient onboard diesel and performance-tuned generator powers the plants' largely electrified crushing, screening and conveying equipment.

Despite class-leading production capacities, this ensures massive savings in fuel consumption compared with diesel-hydraulic or only partially electric competitor plants thanks to low engine speeds. Less hydraulics also means less risk of failure, lower maintenance and parts inventory costs, and thus higher availability with further optimized operating costs, reaching overall savings from 40 to 75%.

All SBM plants provide intelligent integrated “Crush Control” controls that noticeably relieve the operator in set-up and operation. Even inexperienced machine operators can safely operate and access the full performance of the JAWMAX^® and REMAX models, which can be equipped with numerous pre-screening and post-screening options.

In Las Vegas, SBM will also inform about the brand-new REMAX 600: Also based on the SBM hybrid concept, the new 600 t/h impact crusher will soon pave the way for “autonomous crushing”. Extensive sensor technology, including cameras, constantly records and evaluates the feed material as well as intermediate and end products. In real time, those values reach centralized digital labs at SBM, where they are further analyzed. Necessary adjustments are then made on the “digital twin” of the working machine and re-transmitted directly to the REMAX 600 in the field. The “Crusher 4.0” developed together with the University of Leoben was presented at the recent Bauma trade show, and large-scale field tests are currently being carried out in selected partner plants.
